Sometimes life feels heavy, like you’re carrying more than your share or stuck in the same patterns no matter how hard you try. You might look fine on the outside but feel anything but okay inside. I work with teens and adults who want to understand themselves, heal old wounds, and feel more grounded in daily life.
My focus includes trauma, addictions, disordered eating, and dissociation. I also support first responders, veterans, and helpers who give so much to others and are ready to make space for their own healing.
My approach is compassion-focused, trauma-informed, and grounded in somatic and experiential work, but it’s also practical and real. I’m direct when it’s needed, gentle when it matters, and I’m not afraid to bring a bit of humour into the room when it helps lighten the weight of hard work.
If you’re ready to understand yourself differently, create change that lasts, and find steadiness in your day-to-day life, I’d be honoured to walk alongside you.
