Working with neuro-diverse children and adolescents over the years has given me knowledge and insight into their unique experiences. This has led me to work with adults experiencing ASD or ADHD as well. Helping these individuals with sensory processing, peer relationships, behavioural difficulties, social cueing and emotional regulation are the many areas that I have experience. Children and adults are trying to find their way in life, with support and therapy I can guide them in that journey. I also lead the BoLD program at Zafire Holistic Wellness where we have FREE workshops for parents & immediate booking psych. ed. assessments

Being honest and vulnerable with someone you’ve just met can be scary and overwhelming. I offer a safe and open experience where I am committed to understanding your goals and supporting you on your path to wellness and wholeness. My understanding of the importance of receiving support began with my own personal experiences caring for family members. These experiences highlighted the importance of listening, the value of empathy, and the need to be treated with dignity and respect. I will remind you that you are not broken, give you room to access your wisdom, support you in identifying how you feel, and planning your next steps.

I offer feminist, trauma-centred therapy that works collaboratively to understand your internal world in meaningful ways. I am attuned to how family webs (present and ancestral), environments, and structural systems can influence the stories we carry about ourselves while holding space for the possibility other narratives, experiences, and emotions might also be central and important pieces to your identity. By exploring current location, childhood, significant attachments and experiences, and body-based wisdom I believe we will gain a richer understanding of who you are while working towards more emotional balance in your life.

Female Counsellors
Does it matter what gender my therapist is?
In general, this is not an important factor, as there is no relationship between a therapist’s gender and their efficacy. Some clients, however, prefer to see therapists of a particular gender, whether due to their own past experiences with men and women, or ingrained beliefs about how people of different genders think and behave. Exploring the roots of such preferences and considering what one wants to address in therapy can help someone determine whether their therapist’s gender truly matters to them.
Should I see a female therapist?
Many people—not just women—prefer to see a female therapist, either because they believe that a woman will be able to relate to their specific challenges (for example, sexism in the workplace) or because they imagine feeling more comfortable disclosing sensitive information to a woman. Such beliefs may not turn out to be accurate, however, and adhering too rigidly to a gender preference can at times hinder a client from finding the best therapeutic match.
Do therapists get specific training to help with women’s concerns?
Therapists are trained to provide care to clients of any gender. However, some therapists—both men and women—may pursue additional training in feminist therapy, gender-specific issues, or women’s mental health. Female clients may wish to ask prospective therapists whether they have received specific training in the client’s primary area(s) of concern, or whether they have worked extensively with women on issues similar to their own.
How can I inquire about a therapist’s experience in treating women?
It’s OK—even encouraged!—to ask a therapist directly whether and how often they have treated women in the past, or whether they have treated women dealing with the client’s most prominent concern(s). Competent therapists will be happy to share their educational background, preferred treatment modalities, and prior client experience to help an individual find the therapist best suited to their needs.
