I work as a Registered Counsellor & Social Worker with over 10 years experience. I offer virtual, outdoor & surf therapy to individuals aged 12+ in Ontario and BC. I'm a settler, originally from Scarborough, and I'm currently living between Salt Spring Island and Tofino (Coast Salish and Nuu-chah-nulth territories). I often work with people experiencing: depression, anxiety, relationship difficulties, life transitions, work stress, grief, trauma, & more! I'm particularly passionate about helping people reconnect with nature, and manage trauma. More info: www.steadyandwildcounselling.ca

I draw strongly on several approaches, including: mindfulness, Internal Family Systems, somatic therapy, anti-oppressive practice, eco-therapy, Wild psychology and CBT. I weave together research based approaches with more intuitive and mystical ways of being. We'll focus on both emotional processing and also learn practical coping skills.

My clients would describe me as super approachable, funny, and direct when needed. A bit about me: In my spare time I'm usually outdoors surfing, hiking, kayaking, or farming; meditating, going to yoga, or travelling. I have done much therapeutic work myself, and know how vulnerable it is to start! I am super excited to work with you!

I love teaching practical skills such as how to regulate the nervous system and respond to big emotions, as well as using Internal Family Systems Therapy to get curious about what is coming up for you, why it's coming up and what these parts of you need in order for you to experience more peace. My clients are always surprised at how effective this is!
