Everyone deserves to live an enriched and fulfilling life. Whether you're struggling to manage your emotions or maintain relationships, have low self-esteem, need help navigating your relationship with food, or are carrying a sense of heaviness that's keeping you from thriving, I'm here to support you, and we can figure this out together. As a provisional psychologist, I work with clients experiencing anxiety and depression, as well as those struggling with relationships, disordered eating, have a history of trauma, or who want a deeper understanding of who they are.
I take an inclusive, strengths-based, trauma-informed, client-centred, and collaborative approach to counselling. I am drawn to narrative, emotion-focused, and attachment-based therapies, and I work with individuals, couples, and groups.
There is no such thing as an issue too small for therapy if it's not allowing you to thrive. You don't have to do this alone; together, we can find the best path forward to reach your unique goals.

Alex is a complex thinker who sees the possibilities and connections in people's stories, but also knows when to focus on matters of the heart. She has been a pleasure to work with as a colleague, and I am excited to see the positive impact she will make.

Alex is a practitioner with an incredible amount of capacity and knowledge. She has an impressive way of holding space and offering highly insightful feedback at the same time. If she wasn't my colleague, I would want her to be my therapist! :)
