Are you feeling weighed down by the impact of trauma, oppression, or life’s challenges? Healing is possible. As liberation and decolonial oriented trauma therapist I work with individuals to navigate personal and systemic challenges with resilience, self-compassion, and empowerment. My approach combines evidence-based trauma therapies with a deep commitment to social justice, focusing on how larger societal structures affect mental health and well-being. I also provide tools for clients who face systemic discrimination, intergenerational trauma, or a desire for collective wellbeing, grounding our sessions in a sense of hopefulness.
In our work together, I integrate EMDR, Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, Yoga, Mindfulness, DBT and Narrative Therapy, as well as parts work and somatic practices. These approaches can be powerful tools for addressing trauma, reconnecting with your body, and finding peace amidst challenging experiences
I work with BIPOC, women, queer and trans folks, and people with disabilities who are conscious about making a difference through their actions and presence in their lives, relationships, families, and communities. Whether you are managing personal trauma or struggling with burnout, my role is to support you in a way that honours your lived experience.
