It takes courage to ask for help and I feel privileged when people choose me to walk with them on their journey. I offer a warm, genuine and supportive environment to share, reflect and promote positive change. I help people find hope and practice meaning making in situations that feel hard or hopeless. My specialties include anxiety, depression, stress, burnout, intimacy, dating, life and career transitions, (co)parenting, parenting special needs children, ADHD, neurodiversity, gender identity, 2SLGBTQ+, PTSD and trauma.
I have over 20 years of experience helping people manage their struggles – to feel heard and seen. I work from a trauma-informed, intersectional and social justice focused framework. I am trained in a variety of modalities, use an eclectic style, and weave elements of different models together to best suit the person I am working with.
I am passionate about helping people learn to live their lives with radical honesty and epic bravery. I think people feel best when they can be their authentic selves. I strive to establish a connection with clients that helps them feel seen, heard, validated, and safe. I value honesty and transparency and strive to reflect this in my practice and daily life

I am trained in several different models of therapy and tend to pull bits and pieces from various modalities to best meet the needs of the client. In the first session we will explore what brought you to therapy and create therapeutic goals that make sense for you. I work from an anti-oppressive and trauma-informed lens and strive to create a space where clients feel seen and heard.
