Everyone experiences challenges and life differently and I believe they know themselves the best. I am committed to cultivating a space and therapeutic relationship where individuals can explore their identity and experiences safely. I make it my priority to truly understand a client’s unique experiences and challenges. My practice focuses on unlearning normative values and promoting the social adaption of settings to best fit the needs of the individual.

My practice centers around creating a safe and secure environment where you can explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences without judgment. Through a collaborative and supportive counselling process, together, we can work towards gaining a deeper understanding of your experiences, developing new ways of thinking and being, and ultimately empowering you to create a more fulfilling and authentic life.

Life is full of transitions, and everyone can successfully manage the challenges in their lives, but sometimes we need help figuring out what needs to change. Every once in a while, we wish we have someone to talk to about life issues, I'm here to help. I will help you identify your values and find your voice to reconnect with your true authentic self. As an ally and a person of colour, I support clients from a diverse lens and view myself as a partner in the therapeutic journey. My sessions are provided in a warm and cozy space where clients feel welcome and accepted for who they are and present as.

I am a compassionate Registered Psychologist with over 19 years experience. I offer a variety of evidence-based approaches for various concerns. However, if you have no idea what approach you want – that’s completely okay! Research indicates the most important factor in therapy is the relationship: that you feel safe, understood and accepted. I offer a warm, empathic, non-judgemental space to explore difficult issues and increase your self-understanding.

I am passionate about helping people of all neurotypes to understand themselves, develop their strengths, and support struggles and challenges. I recognize that everyone is unique, so therapy approaches need to be personalized to an individual’s unique needs. I strive to create a safe therapy space using collaboration, trust, and clear communication. I believe in collaborating closely with my clients with a practice based in compassion, curiosity, and nonjudgement. I also strive to help my clients feel seen and heard, and I love supporting people as they build emotional awareness to support emotional regulation and self-awareness.

As a queer therapist, I understand the challenges of finding inclusive support and the transformative effects of collaborative therapy. I believe the most powerful aspect of therapy is a therapeutic partnership that learns and grows together. This means that I will bring my whole self into our work together and join you in your exploration and identify the things that matter to you. Healing and growth happen in the presence of safety and being truly seen and understood. I offer an anti-oppressive, queer, intersectional, and social justice approach to counselling.

Located in NW Calgary in Tuscany, I am a Registered Psychologist with 15+ years of experience. I see children, adolescents, and adults. My particular areas of specialty are: anxiety, depression, trauma/PTSD, stress, and relationship issues. I believe that the fit between therapist and client is key. I work collaboratively with clients to conceptualize and understand the presenting issue, to identify goals and ways to move forward, and to build on and increase coping tools.

My passion is helping individuals who identify as highly sensitive, highly emotional, or who experience emotional dysregulation (regardless of diagnosis) find their path to wellness. I encourage my clients to be curious about how they can cultivate lifestyle changes to think, emote and behave in ways that foster personal wellbeing and contentment. I work with adults and teens 14+. In addition to providing general therapy, I also offer sport psychology for equestrians. Need help overcoming mental and emotional blocks that impede performance, I may be the right therapist for you!

Sex doesn't have to be a chore. Is it just another thing to scratch off your daily list? Is it run of the mill, get it done and move on? Or is it a straight up “don't touch me, I don’t have time for this crap?”. However your partner keeps saying that sex needs to be a priority in your relationship, or they'll be forced to leave. Or they would like to explore an open relationship. Lingerie, sex toys and endless research hasn’t changed anything and in fact you feel worse than you did before. You still lack any connection and safety in your relationship, which is really what you want, (other than an equal workload).

Are you feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or lonely? Are you struggling in your relationships? Are wounds from your past keeping you from moving forward? Asking for help and making changes can be difficult - your courage in reaching out is the first step in moving towards the life you want to live. It is my privilege to walk alongside you as I support you to let go of what is holding you back and to embrace your very best self. I am excited to know you deeply and to and celebrate you as you embark on this journey!

Do you feel unheard or unseen? Or that no one understands what you're going through? Or stuck because you aren't sure who you are, what you want, or how to heal? You're not alone. I became a counsellor because I have also been there and understand how difficult it can be. I want to help. Whether you are feeling disconnected from yourself, isolated in relationships, or a larger sense of overwhelm and uncertainty in today's world, you deserve a safe space to be heard, supported, and understood. I self-identify as a queer woman and provide WPATH assessments and letters of readiness for gender-affirming care.
