I am a compassionate Registered Clinical Counsellor dedicated to supporting youth and adults in their journey to emotional well-being. I specialize in helping individuals navigate anxiety, mood issues, relationships, identity, and life transitions. As a queer therapist, I have a particular focus on working with the LGBTQIA+ community. My approach is rooted in empathy, creating a safe, inclusive space where clients feel seen and heard as they work toward healing and growth.
I specialize in perinatal mental health, supporting individuals through challenges like anxiety, low mood, and identity shifts during pregnancy and early parenthood. Whether you are a birthing parent or not, the emotional complexities of this transition can feel overwhelming. I help clients build resilience, reduce distress, and feel empowered.
I also have a passion for supporting people with disordered eating. Using a nonjudgmental, compassionate approach aligned with Health At Every Size principles, I work to foster a healthier relationship with food and body. With training in CBT, DBT, IFS, EFFT, and mindfulness, I tailor my methods to your unique needs, providing a safe space for healing.
