Therapy is vulnerable. I get to sit on both sides of the room, so I know the raw experience of sharing openly with someone. I am always honoured to hold space, and touch down into our shared humanity. To me, therapy is first and foremost a relational playground, a place to be curious. Finding a therapist can be a daunting challenge - keep searching for the right witness.

My own history is what initially ignited my passion for mental health and healing. In 2012 I began working in community homes, addictions services, and crisis intervention before completing my Masters in Counselling Psychology at Adler University in 2016. I am grateful to have spent the last 8 years as a Registered Clinical Counsellor (#14166) developing my private practice, a space that has allowed me to evolve in my clinical approach and to decolonize the medicalized model of therapy to better address the needs of my clients. The basis of my clinical orientation is Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT), and I am informed by Internal Family Systems (IFS), Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT), Somatic Experiencing (SE), Narrative Therapy, and Feminist Theory. I completed a 200-hour Meditation Teacher Training in 2018, and these skills show up in the therapy room often. My approach is client-centered and collaborative, and my style is both mindful and directive.

I offer a free consultation so you can ask me any questions you have, and feel out if we’re a fit. I hope you’ll reach out.
