I am passionate about helping people of all neurotypes to understand themselves, develop their strengths, and support struggles and challenges. I recognize that everyone is unique, so therapy approaches need to be personalized to an individual’s unique needs. I strive to create a safe therapy space using collaboration, trust, and clear communication. I believe in collaborating closely with my clients with a practice based in compassion, curiosity, and nonjudgement. I also strive to help my clients feel seen and heard, and I love supporting people as they build emotional awareness to support emotional regulation and self-awareness.

My passion is helping children and adolescents to feel better understood, and to have the skills and confidence to better manage their external (e.g., friendships, school performance) and internal (e.g., emotions, urges) worlds. Using gold-standard psychological assessment tools, I can provide clarity around diagnostic questions including ASD, ADHD, intellectual disabilities, and learning disorders in order to make recommendations that will benefit a child going forward. With respect to therapy, I use evidence-based modalities including CBT, DBT skills, and ACT to help youth manage big feelings and function more effectively.

Many of my clients in Calgary have spent years feeling like they don't quite fit — whether that's navigating the world as an autistic or ADHD adult, exploring their identity as a queer or trans person, or all at once.
Whether you come on your own, with a partner or partners, therapy with me starts with one thing: actually understanding what you're up against. From there, we build a process around what matters most to you, not a generic template. I bring a calm and sturdy presence to that work, drawing on somatic and experiential approaches.

I support neurodivergent adults and couples navigate masking, burnout, executive functioning struggles, and relationship stress.
Accepting New Clients! If you've spent most of your life masking who you are just to get through the day, you're probably exhausted. Maybe things feel like they're starting to unravel - at work, in relationships, or internally. You've probably heard that you're "too sensitive" or "not trying hard enough," when in reality your brain simply works differently. You want relief from burnout and anxiety, more clarity about how your mind works, and relationships that feel more steady and connected.

I offer individual therapy and assessment services to clients with a variety of presenting concerns (e.g., anxiety, depressed mood, life transitions/stressors, ADHD, ASD, etc.), and I use my extensive training in assessment and therapeutic approaches to tailor services for each client.
It’s easy to question if it would be helpful to work with a therapist, especially if you’ve thought a lot about your problems and are often trying to make changes, have people to confide in, or have tried AI therapy tools! But, the therapy room is a powerful place. Here you have a skilled professional trained to listen very closely- to notice what is said and not said, and to notice important patterns and motivators that may not be evident to you. Through tailored assessment and therapeutic services, I use my knowledge and skill set to facilitate my clients on their journey of personal growth, healing, and self-discovery.

My clients include adults and teens who often fall outside conventional norms, including those who are neurodivergent, queer, gender-diverse, polyamorous, and/or living with disabilities.
I draw on many modalities in my practice, such as storytelling, mindfulness, nervous system regulation, guided visualization, breathwork, artistic expression, movement, and somatics (body-centred exploration). I wish to help my clients explore deep Self, their connections with others, and their relationship with the Earth.

Whether you have experience in the arts or not, I believe anyone can have the capacity and the ability to engage in and benefit from the dynamic and playful approach of Expressive Arts Therapy.
