I work from a trauma-informed, healing-oriented perspective, integrating traditional teachings and modern, research-based psychotherapy. Whether you are dealing with anxiety, relationships, trauma, a crisis, or wanting something more from life, I welcome you for a free 20-minute consultation with me or another therapist in our clinic.
My approach integrates a caring presence with emotions-focused therapies, attachment theory, Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy (AEDP), somatic (body-based) therapies, EMDR, mindfulness, transpersonal approaches, radical acceptance and self compassion, and narrative therapy. I trained with Therapsil in psilocybin-assisted psychotherapy.
I have worked in the helping profession for the past 15 years. My professional history includes private practice, providing clinical supervision, family counselling, adult and geriatric mental health, youth crisis work, supporting adults with disabilities, and crisis counselling.

I primarily use AEDP, which is a here-and-now therapy. We use the therapeutic relationship, mindfulness, and other tools in the here and now both to expand joy and wellness, and to help us go back and heal wounds from the past.
