Pear Tree Family Therapy

Feel Wisely; Think Clearly.

Feel Wisely; Think Clearly

Welcome here!

I help people understand what’s going on in their lives and relationships, and what they might want to shift, whether they’re in a deep pit or just feeling stuck. Nothing heroic – just the changes that make life feel more workable. (Well, sometimes clients make heroic changes. People can be pretty astonishing.)

You don’t have to be completely broken to benefit from therapy. A lot of the people I work with just want to face things more clearly, respond more wisely, and live in a way that feels more aligned with who they actually are. 

I’ve also helped many clients take the next big step forward — at work, school, the arts, sports, and other passions. It’s not always what brings people in, but sometimes it’s not about getting out of the pit, but climbing to the mountain peak.

No matter what your goal, I’m happy to help you live the life you want to live.

MMFT – Family Therapist

Education & Experience

I have been working with individuals, couples, and families for over a decade now. First I worked for bigger counselling organizations and not-for-profits here in Winnipeg. In 2018 I set up Pear Tree Family Therapy. I moved to the new location in 2021 when we bought a new house with a better therapy space. (Florian Pl. Family Therapy doesn’t have the same ring to it!)

In 2015 I graduated from one of the best Marriage and Family Therapy masters programs around (and one of only three in Canada). My degree and counselling designation is: Masters in Marriage and Family Therapy (MMFT). Us MMFTs are usually covered by most insurers. I am a proud member of the Canadian Association for Couple and Family Therapy. (Formerly the Canadian Association of Marriage and Family Therapy).

About Steve

Dogs are a wonderful reminder that life reveals the best of itself when we live in the moment with unconditional love.

Steve is my Jack Russell Terrier who greets our clients each day with a wag of the tail and an enthusiastic step. Steve takes his role as director of greetings (or D.O.G.) at Pear Tree Family Therapy very seriously. He has a wonderful ability to add a level of comfort and positivity to your session. If you’re allergic to or are afraid of dogs, please let us know.
