I believe that having the courage to allow yourself to be vulnerable by sharing your story, and being open to learn new ways of coping, can lead to a more balanced self with lasting change. As your therapist, I can help guide you to make healthy choices, to engage in healthy relationships, and to identify your own strengths. I provide an environment of compassion and creativity which helps inform the exploration of personal issues.
I can support you in learning to identify and manage emotions, increasing your self-awareness, developing healthy coping strategies, and improving your self-worth. Anti-oppression and cultural safety are vital to the therapy process. I welcome clients from all neurotypes, genders, identities, relationship styles, and cultural backgrounds.
I often focus on developing self-compassion so that my clients can learn to treat themselves with love and kindness. I provide an integrative therapy approach where a variety of counselling methods are used to personalize treatment. I acknowledge and celebrate the strengths and fragility of the human spirit.

I gently support clients in shifting the perspective from "what is wrong with me?" to "what happened to me?" Feelings of shame and disconnection are often rooted in past experiences, not inherent flaws. Vulnerability is the bridge to authentic connection. I am invested in providing a therapeutic experience where it is safe enough for you to explore the most authentic you.
