I'm a Psychological Associate completing my candidacy with the Psychological Association of Manitoba and am registered with the Canadian Counselling & Psychotherapy Association. Therapy is about reconnecting the pathway between our awareness of the world around us, the lens we’ve evolved from the inside out, and the physiological state of our bodies. A process that should be fluid and natural can become staggered when we experience loss, crises, confusion, addiction, traumatic events or relational dynamics, and chronic pain. Often this fragmentation can feel so “normal” that we don’t recognize it until life throws up a roadblock.

Life can bring interesting challenges. Usually we can manage on our own, but sometimes having a trained professional to offer support and guidance helps to identify solutions and allows us to move forward. I am a registered psychologist trained in the areas of neuroscience, assessment, counselling, and community rehabilitation and disability studies. I also have training in school psychology and also have an in-depth background in neurological disease/injury, family mediation, conflict resolution, developmental/complex trauma, and mood disorders. I also provide therapy and/or education for parents, kids and extended family members who are experiencing separation and divorce.

Seeking help is not a weakness, it is a sign of strength and courage. People routinely see doctors for physical ailments - our emotional health/wellness are just as important. To "re·solve" means: settle or find an answer or solution; to rectify; sort out; or deal with; decide firmly on a course of action; determine or make a commitment to do something; separate into components; dissolve or disintegrate; reduce or divide; analyze, dissect, categorize; disperse; subside or heal; to move from dissonance to consonance or harmony; to be changed or transformed.

You’re the one everyone counts on, juggling responsibilities and meeting expectations—both theirs and your own.

By addressing troubling thoughts and feelings, self-sabotaging behaviors, and traumas, life can be made more manageable, productive, and fulfilling. Feelings such as grief, shame, anxiety, sadness, and anger often signal that something needs to change. Listening to and working with these feelings—some that consume us and others that gently nudge us—can move us forward. Through this, we sometimes discover that our everyday dilemmas are part of larger patterns waiting to be resolved as a whole.

I approach counselling from a lens that is grounded in the continued practice of anti-racism, disability justice, queer theory, sex positivity, and that recognizes the systemic violence that has, and continues to, harm us and impact our experiences in the world, and inside ourselves. The main niche of folks that I have had the honour of working with over the years have been queer and trans folks, sex workers, disabled folks, non-traditional relationship networks, kink and bdsm communities, BIPOC folks, folks navigating complex trauma, and those living at the intersections of many of these identities.
