We all have a deep desire to be happy. Yet life can be tough, and sometimes it leaves us feeling weighed down, disconnected, or unsure of who we are or where we’re headed. If you’ve been carrying pain, navigating big life changes, or longing for more joy and ease, you don’t have to figure it out alone. I’d love to sit with you in whatever you’re going through—whether it’s heartbreak, grief, identity questions, processing past trauma, difficult relationships, or just feeling stuck—and help you find your way forward. As a queer trans man, I bring compassion, care, and an affirming and non-judgmental space where all of you is welcome.
I specialize in working with trans and non-binary people, men, young adults, and folks within the 2SLGBTQ+ community. In my work with clients, I incorporate Buddhist psychology, mindfulness-based and somatic therapies, self-compassion, EMDR, IFS-informed therapy, and more, depending on each person's needs and preferences.
I care deeply about meeting each client with care and respect, and honouring each person's journey with all its successes and challenges. If something in my profile resonates with you, I encourage you to reach out and schedule a free consultation to see if it feels like a good fit. I hope to hear from you.

I believe that we are all whole people and are not defined by our "diagnoses." When we struggle with an issue in our lives, those issues are within the context of our broader life experience. You bring yourself with all your strengths and imperfections, and together we can explore what wholeness feels like, even when there are challenges to overcome.

My primary approach is trauma-informed, anti-oppression oriented, and strengths-based. I utilize mindfulness and somatic-based therapies, self-compassion, and I often incorporate IFS-informed parts work. I'm also formally trained in EMDR, which is available for clients who want to explore this approach to healing.
