Welcome! Life can be overwhelming at times. Whether you're feeling stuck, anxious, disconnected, or going through a major life change. I’m here to offer a safe, compassionate space where you can begin to understand what’s going on beneath the surface and feel supported as you move forward. I work with children, teens, and adults who are navigating challenges like anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, relationship issues, identity questions, and life transitions. I have a particular passion for supporting young adults as they work through the pressures of growing up in today’s world.
My approach is warm, collaborative, and trauma-informed. I believe healing happens when we feel seen, heard, and understood. Therapy with me is never one-size-fits-all. I draw from specialized training to help you process trauma (EMDR and IFS), cope with emotional dysregulation (ACT and DBT), and shift behavioural patterns related to anxiety (CBT, ERP).
I understand how hard it can be to take the first step, especially if you’re new to therapy. I offer evening and weekend sessions to support busy schedules, and I invite you to reach out for a free consultation to see if we’re a good fit.
