Whether you are re-taking control of your life and starting over or you are looking to set time aside for your mental wellbeing, Art Therapy can help. Art Therapy is widely used as an auxiliary treatment for depression, illness and chronic pain, addiction and trauma. Children and Youth particularly respond well to Art Therapy as it offers a less confrontational approach to counselling . I have experience working with children and youth with various challenges stemming from parental separation, anxiety disorders, grief and loss and especially difficulties with social inclusion and feeling outcasted.

As a Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC), I work with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, emotional overwhelm, relationship challenges, life transitions, and concerns related to identity, self-worth, or meaning. Many of my clients feel stuck in painful patterns or uncertain about how to move forward, and are seeking support that is both compassionate and practical.

Are you someone who understands your patterns, but they still play out in ways you can’t seem to shift? You might notice them in relationships, where you overgive, people-please, or hold back parts of yourself. Also in emotional reactions that feel bigger than you expect, even when you know where they come from.
You're not doing anything wrong, the shift just hasn’t translated yet. This is where I meet you. We slow things down, look at what’s underneath these patterns, and begin working with them in a way that changes how things actually feel, not just how they’re understood.

"Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life and you will call it fate." - Carl Jung The overwhelm of stress, anxiety or depression can often leave us disconnected from our lives and have us operating on autopilot. Somatic Therapy helps us to see our conditioning and allows us to become unstuck and create something fresh.

We all go through times when we feel quietly lost—like we have drifted from who we truly are. Maybe you have spent years showing up for others, doing the right thing, staying strong. I have been there too—until I could no longer hear my own voice.
If you are tired or longing for something more, you are not alone. You do not need to have it all figured out.
This is where I begin—by offering you a space to exhale the weight you have been carrying, to feel, to just be. Not to fix you, but to gently walk beside you as you find your way back home to yourself.

Do you often wake up feeling exhausted, even though you “should” feel grateful — only to have the storm of worry, self-doubt, stress, or regret return before you’ve even had your coffee? Maybe you’re juggling high expectations at work, trying to do your best for your family or your partner, or carrying the weight of past trauma — but it all leaves you drained, disconnected from yourself, and doubting if “this” is all life has to offer. I’m here to help you find relief, clarity, and a way back to yourself.

Our past experiences impact us in ways we may not even realize. Our nervous system jumps in to protect us in ways that it has helped us survive in the past (this could look like feeling foggy, anxious, depressed or numb). This often prevents us from operating how we wish to. Working to reconnect the body with the mind to our present, adult self can help resolve this disconnection. I believe that we all deserve to experience connection, empathy, attunement and safety and that this is often the missing piece.
