My Approach
As a parent to three (including twins), Petra particularly enjoys supporting individuals navigating the complexities of fertility, pregnancy, postpartum, and parenting. Her therapeutic approach is compassionate and individualized, aiming to help clients rediscover their inherent strengths and find self-compassion during challenging times. Her personal experiences with parenthood have deeply informed her commitment to assisting others on similar journeys.
Before transitioning to psychotherapy, Petra dedicated over a decade to education, focusing on outdoor and nature-based learning. She served as the Director of Learning at the Child and Nature Alliance of Canada, where she was instrumental in developing programs that connected children with the outdoors. Her roles also included Manager of Forest School Canada and Lead Educator, emphasizing her commitment to fostering meaningful relationships between children and nature.
