Many of the people I work with are capable and high-functioning, yet quietly struggle with anxiety, emptiness, or patterns in relationships that don’t make sense.
I offer a warm, collaborative space rooted in somatic and attachment-based therapy. Using Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, mindfulness, and parts work, I help clients calm the nervous system, work through trauma and old patterns, and reconnect with themselves in a way that feels safe, compassionate, and transformative.

I am a Registered Clinical Counsellor and a Certified Music Therapist with master's degrees and experience in both fields. I specialize in supporting clients with mental health concerns through integrating evidence-based counselling approaches with the use of music in session. This can involve a variety of different creative outlets such as song-writing, singing, learning an instrument, electronic music production, and improvisation to access experiences for emotion regulation, executive functioning skills work, and connection to community and culture. I work with clients to create a plan to meet their unique strengths and needs.

I work collaboratively with individual clients, families, and couples to support the unique needs and goals of each client.
Creating a calm and welcoming space to learn about my clients goals for therapy, I often start with building healthy coping resources and skills that clients can use in their everyday life. Clients often decide to work through past experiences as well, through the use of EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy).

I will probably laugh at your jokes. No, seriously! I think laughter is one of the most powerful ways we loosen the grip of fear and shame. Therapy doesn’t have to feel cold or clinical to be effective. You can expect me to be warm, steady, and straightforward with you. The hours we spend together matter. This isn't just another conversation, it's intentional work. Real change happens when two people sit down, tell the truth, and aren't alone in it. We’ll call those patterns out when they show up in session (and they will), not to shame you, but to understand them. When we can see what’s happening in real time, we can adjust.

Using Bowen Family Systems Theory, I guide clients to explore how multigenerational family patterns shape their emotions, reactions, and relationships.

Through the lens of Bowen Family Systems Theory, I invite clients to get curious about the family patterns that shape their struggles. In a calm, reflective space, we slow down, grow awareness, and build the clarity and resilience needed to respond to life with greater freedom and intention.
