I am genuinely interested and curious about the lives, perspectives, experiences and inner workings of human beings. It is a great privilege to work alongside people as they unravel old patterns, process challenging experiences and examine deeply held beliefs about themselves that may not hold true. My early work in community development has contributed to a firm belief in supporting clients to address all areas of their lives: recognizing that the connection between mental, physical, emotional, and social helps to foster optimal wellbeing.
My practice foundation is holistic, trauma-informed, anti-oppressive, and client-centred. To best serve client needs I use an Integrated approach pulling from my training and certifications in various modalities. I specialize in EMDR, a therapy that helps the brain and body process difficult or overwhelming experiences in a healthier way.
Everyone deserves to feel at peace within themselves, to feel a sense of belonging in a community of their choosing, to be heard and understood, validated, encouraged, and celebrated. I provide a safe, supportive space to get vulnerable, face difficult truths, navigate life transitions, process experiences and emotions and work towards goals for the future.
