Tattooed, neurospicy, and here for the folks who have seen some shit. In sessions I show up real — leggings, a hoodie, with a holistic and non-pathologizing approach. I don’t wear a blazer and I won’t ask you to journal your way through trauma, anxiety and systemic failure. The world right now is especially heavy and feeling that doesn’t mean you’re broken - it means you're human. My clients carry a lot: they’re the ones who run toward the chaos — nurses, cops, medics, veterans, docs, dispatchers, RCMP & therapists. You hold it together for everyone else. I’m here to hold space for you, and won’t flinch when it gets messy.

I offer therapy + assessments (ADHD, mood, personality, MVA, STD/LTD, return to work) for clarity, accommodations, or insurance. I'm somatically trained — but you don't have to take up yoga to work with me, and I blend Eastern vibes with Western science to help you get out of your head and back into your body.

Life has an impact — sometimes in ways we don’t even realize. In our work together, we’ll get curious about what’s showing up, process what needs processing, and help you move forward a little lighter. Disclaimer: Working with me may include dark humour and cussing. If you’re curious, book a complimentary 45-minute consult and we’ll see if we’re a fit.
