I am a cis-gendered female (she/her) and ADHD-identified therapist working with youth (12+) and adults. I am Indigenous, Mi'kmaq Potlotek First Nation, and of settler Canadian descent. Throughout my career, I’ve focused on supporting Indigenous peoples, First Nations communities, the LGBTQ+ community, and neurodivergent individuals. I’m committed to creating a safe and inclusive space for LGBTQ+, neurodivergent, and Indigenous clients to explore their identities, heal from trauma, and address challenges such as systemic discrimination, emotional regulation, and gender/sexuality exploration.
With lived experience of ADHD, I understand its impact on daily life, relationships, and self-esteem, and my goal is to help you embrace your strengths, build self-compassion, and create strategies that work for you. I integrate a wholistic approach that honors Indigenous culture, intergenerational trauma, and supports cultural identity reconnection.
I believe clients are experts in their own lives that may need some guidance in accessing their inner knowledge. If you’re seeking a space to heal, grow, and reconnect with yourself, I’m here to walk alongside you on that journey. Help is here whenever you’re ready.
