Interested in Feminist Therapy? Hi, I am a queer and nonbinary Registered Clinical Counsellor and settler on Lekwungen Territory and I offer anti-oppressive support for complex trauma and PTSD, Two-Spirit and LGBTQIA+ experiences, relationships, grief, neurodivergence, and more. If you want to learn how to process emotions, move forward from past experiences, and live more authentically, we might be a good team!
As an evidence-based practitioner, my approach is rooted in neuroscience and Indigenous ways of knowing. I offer PTSD and complex trauma recovery using emotion-focused therapy and ego-state work. Feminist practice means we include feedback, options, and consent in every session so that we can respect your expertise around your health.
You can learn more about my clinic and book a free consultation with me through my website. If you need low-cost therapy, check out my students who are fully supervised by myself and feel free to book a first free intake session if you want to meet one!
