The people I work with are experts in their own lives yet they feel misaligned. You may be noticing that a version of yourself that once worked no longer fits, and you want to feel good about who you are. My work is grounded in a narrative approach, helping you make sense of patterns, past experiences, and turning points. As a queer, mixed-race therapist, I understand the importance of a safe space for you to be your authentic self in your story. I can use a variety of tools that suit your needs, such as integrating music, books, art, or games, like D&D-style roleplay activities. Our therapy space reflects your rich inner world.
You are the captain of the ship and I am your navigator, highlighting where we could go. The choice is always yours. We collaborate by trying out different techniques to support your growth. I spent over a decade as a teacher/inclusive lead in a K-12 setting, and I carry this experience with me into my client work. I also offer counselling in French.
I have a particular interest in working with LGBTQIA2S+ individuals, as well as in relationships, intimacy, self-esteem, anxiety, and identity development. You don’t need to perform or have everything figured out. Reaching out is enough. I would be honoured to support your journey to a version of yourself that feels more grounded, intuitive, and aligned.

I have particular interests in relationships, intimacy and sexuality, self-esteem, boundary work, neurodivergence, and identity development. Sessions are a space to think, feel, and reflect without pressure to perform or "fix" yourself. I aim to create a therapeutic relationship that feels authentic, thoughtful, and human where you can slow down, tell your story, and be met with care.

Narrative therapy is a modality I use as it will allow you to explore your own story authentically in a safe space. Through narrative therapy, we explore how people are not problems; problems exist because of greater stories around us. You choose how we explore those stories. I am also open to using different treatment types to support your needs, as I use a client-centered approach.
