You may find therapy with me helpful if you're deeply attuned to others, but not the best at establishing your own needs. You may find yourself stuck in patterns that no longer serve you, feeling overwhelmed and resentful, and wanting to feel more present. You may struggle with shame, boundaries, or building safe and reciprocal relationships. Maybe you've tried traditional talk therapy in the past but felt that something was missing. Somatic therapy might be just what you need to work through past wounds that still live in your body. If you want not only coping skills but genuine healing, you're in the right place.
I offer somatic, relational therapy that helps you understand your body's wisdom and explore your inner world with curiosity and safety. My approach is attachment-based and trauma-informed. My style is collaborative, conversational, and down-to-earth. My goal is to support your healing through the security and attunement of our therapeutic relationship.
I know it can be hard to ask for help and find the right support, especially if you’re used to being the one others rely on. If you're feeling stuck, flooded, or just needing to feel understood, you’re not alone. Therapy can be a place to arrive and begin to heal. If something here resonates, feel free to reach out. I’d be honoured to work with you.

I have six years' experience supporting adults and couples in private practice. My training at CIIS and my traineeship at the Center for Somatic Psychotherapy in San Francisco deeply shaped the way I work, grounding me in relational, body-based, and culturally responsive approaches.

While I regularly support people navigating anxiety, depression, grief, and life stress, many also benefit from my additional experience with trauma (complex, developmental, and single-incident), codependency and boundaries, disordered eating and body image concerns, medically unexplained body symptoms, and OCD. I also work extensively with shame, anger, and relationship dynamics.
