Are you tired of twisting yourself to fit into a world that doesn’t make space for you? If you’re ADHD, Autistic, LGBT2SQ+, living with chronic illness, going through menopause, or struggling with disordered eating, you may have tried therapy that left you feeling unseen or pressured to fit a mould. My approach is different. I offer therapy that is practical, neuro-affirming, holistic, mind-body informed, and practiced through a lived experience lens. Together, we focus on what actually works for you and your nervous system, so you can build a life that feels more possible, supportive, and sustainable. Let’s work together!

My approach is person-centred, anti-oppressive, and holistic. I utilize trauma-informed, DBT-informed, Health at Every Size, CBT-informed, Motivational Interviewing, IFS, Somatics, and strengths-based strategies. I work collaboratively with you and aim to provide an empathic, non-judgemental, inclusive space that’s authentic and down to earth.

I’m a queer, AuDHD, cis woman living with chronic health conditions. If you’re looking for a therapist who brings both lived experience and advocacy, you’re in the right place. My work is grounded in understanding, authenticity, and real-world care. If you feel I may be a good fit, I’d love to support you. Sliding scale options are available based on need.
