Let’s face it: looking for a therapist online can feel a bit like online dating. There are many wonderful therapists out there, and finding the right one is about finding someone you genuinely connect with. Maybe you’ve become a parent and wonder where the “you” before kids went. Maybe your relationship has changed, trust has been broken, or you’re feeling lonely—even in a world that seems connected. Maybe your body, mood, memory, or sexuality seem to be rewriting the rules without asking. Whatever brings you here, we can get curious about it together.
Relationships shape our lives and how we see ourselves. I work with individuals and couples navigating relationships, life transitions, sexuality, identity, and emotional well-being. I have a particular interest in women’s mental health, including postpartum, perimenopause and menopause, while welcoming clients of all genders.
My approach is warm and collaborative. I’m genuinely curious about what makes humans tick and love turning research into useful ideas. If you enjoy digging into the “why,” we can nerd out together. If you prefer to keep it practical, that’s great too. My hope is that you’ll leave with greater clarity, useful tools and a deeper understanding of yourself.

Before becoming a psychotherapist, I spent years in healthcare as a respiratory therapist, leader, educator and trainer, both in Canada and internationally. Working across roles, cultures and settings shaped how I see the world—and continues to inform my evidence-based practice.

I'm especially drawn to the complicated, very human parts of life: relationships, intimacy and sexuality, breaches of trust, parenthood, women's mental health, postpartum and hormonal transitions, changing identities, career shifts, separation and grief. I work with individuals and couples of all genders as they make sense of change, reconnect with themselves and each other, and find a way forward

There's no single way to do therapy because there's no single way to be human. We'll shape our work around you—your experiences, values, worldview, what you want to understand or change, and what's actually useful. We might explore patterns and perspectives, question or rewrite old stories, build practical skills, or simply make space to understand what's happening and what you want and need next.
