One-size-fits-all isn’t true for clothing, life, or therapy! My own journey has been very off the beaten track, and I love working with others to break free of societal expectations, past wounds, and internalized messaging to find their authentic self and voice. You are the expert on your life, your experiences, and your situation; my role is to act as witness and guide as you connect to your own innate wisdom, power, and capacity for healing. I believe that healing occurs in relationship with others, and that it is in the sharing of stories and being witnessed with compassion that enables us to move towards a more meaningful life.

My passions and interests in therapy include body liberation (particularly for those living in larger bodies), neurodiversity, religious trauma, interpersonal difficulties, grief and loss, life changes, depression, identity and self-discovery, and childhood trauma. I value humour and genuine connection in the therapeutic space.

In addition to the above, I can work with you in exploring issues around body image, identity, divesting from damaging societal messaging and wholly embracing yourself as you are. Despite what you have been taught, your body is not the enemy – it is your home. It is you. And you deserve to live wholly, authentically, and freely. I'd love to connect with you!

I work to help clients with depression, anxiety, body image problems and trauma history to unpack the stories they have been told about themselves and to name other systems/elements that have contributed to their experience. Together we'll learn more about parts of you that helped you survive and some that may be getting in the way of your thriving, and create new narratives around life events.

Treatment Approach

Types of Therapy

Body Trust
Feminist
Internal Family Systems (IFS)
Narrative
Somatic

I use a variety of therapeutic approaches, including parts work (informed by internal family systems), narrative and existential therapies. I use humour in therapy, as I believe it is a wonderfully regulating tool. In all of these, I work from a feminist, trauma-informed and anti-racist, anti-oppressive lens. My approach is strengths-based, collaborative, and compassion-focused.
