I offer feminist, trauma-centred therapy that works collaboratively to understand your internal world in meaningful ways. I am attuned to how family webs (present and ancestral), environments, and structural systems can influence the stories we carry about ourselves while holding space for the possibility other narratives, experiences, and emotions might also be central and important pieces to your identity. By exploring current location, childhood, significant attachments and experiences, and body-based wisdom I believe we will gain a richer understanding of who you are while working towards more emotional balance in your life.

The weight of our experiences, choices, and life circumstances can get heavy at times. During these periods it can be difficult to see outside of our pain, to choose an alternate path, or to create meaning. In therapy, I work with adults, who are struggling with common issues such as: depressed mood, anxiety, stress, self-criticism, feeling disconnected, relationship dissatisfaction, and parenting issues. I will work with you to explore ways for you to feel more confident in your choices, as well as connected to yourself and the important people in your life.

Hey there! Finding a therapist you connect with can be a daunting task, but it’s worth it once you find that person you feel comfortable with and can trust. My own approach is warm, relaxed, and collaborative. I make sure that you have space in sessions to share whatever is on your mind while also ensuring that we have continuity between sessions and are working toward your goals. I always strive to create a space that feels open and non-judgemental, and I work from a client-centred and trauma-informed perspective.
