RP (Inactive). On maternity leave. Work Stress & Career Counselling. On the outside life seems good but inside you’re feeling anxious, tired and overwhelmed, and you just don’t feel like yourself. You often wonder how you’ll make it through another day and your head is constantly swirling with negative thoughts. You feel frustrated, worried, and at times helpless, and anxiety is seeping into your personal life. You are a deeply caring person but feel exhausted from overthinking and overworking. You are tired of not prioritizing yourself and you wish you had more control over your thoughts, your schedule, and your life.

As a film and book lover, I’ve always been fascinated by the power of stories to shape our lives. Just like the characters we connect with on-screen or in a novel, the stories we tell about ourselves can have a profound impact on how we see the world and our place in it. In my practice, I bring this passion for storytelling into our work together, helping you explore and reshape your own story in a way that feels authentic and empowering. Whether it's finding new perspectives or rewriting old narratives, I believe that understanding and owning your story can be a powerful tool for change.

Clients engaging in therapy with me can expect to feel valued. I listen to my clients’ successes and challenges and help clients capitalize on their strengths. I also treasure my clients’ background and culture. In the first session, I will listen to your stories and use current research and assessment tools to help with diagnosis. Collaboratively, we will set treatment goals and a treatment plan. Whether you are coming to treat mood, stress, or personality, or to learn how to deal with life’s difficult transitions, I will tailor the treatment plan to match your personality and goals.

You’re a high-performing professional who carries enormous pressure, constantly switching between leadership, problem-solving, and trying to stay present for the people who matter. On the outside you look composed, but inside you feel stretched thin, mentally overloaded, and tired of pushing through each day. Stress, overthinking, and burnout are hitting harder, and the balance you once relied on feels out of reach. You want clarity, energy, emotional steadiness, and control again without sacrificing your goals or the people who depend on you. I work exclusively virtually, offering support that fits your schedule.

My ideal client is someone who is self-aware enough to recognize that something in their life isn’t working—whether it’s persistent anxiety, overwhelming stress, past trauma, or recurring patterns in relationships—but may feel stuck, unsure, or even ashamed about seeking help. They might be high-functioning on the outside, yet silently struggling with inner conflict, emotional exhaustion, or a loss of purpose.
They need a safe, compassionate space to slow down, untangle their thoughts, and be fully seen without judgment. What they really need is someone to walk beside them as they navigate that uncertainty.

As a Social Worker Psychotherapist I work relationally with individuals, and those in partnership with others (including couples and poly dynamics). I am drawn to themes of: shame, sexuality, neurodiversities, grief, and impediments to connection; both to oneself and others. I am queer/bisexual and genderfluid, but you don't have to be, and a person who lives with a long-term invisible chronic illness. I am based in NL but got my start as a therapist Ontario and am registered to provide therapy in 3 provinces (including Nova Scotia). My work is informed by my experiences of working in community mental health and harm reduction.

Clinical Social Worker, Trauma Therapist, ADHD Coach & Manifestation Coach
I support individuals who are ready to step into their purpose, expand their capacity, and move forward with clarity and confidence.
Our experiences shape how safe we feel in our bodies, how we relate to others, and how we trust ourselves. With the right support, these patterns can soften, shift, and transform. I offer a safe, collaborative space where men and women reconnect with themselves, strengthen self-trust, and move toward greater alignment and resilience.
This is a time for healing, growth, and meaningful transformation. My goal is your goal.

I support people navigating stress, burnout, and systems that weren’t built with them in mind. My work is for those who want to understand how early relationships, attachment, and intergenerational trauma show up in their lives today. I offer a safe, nonjudgmental space to be heard, reflect, and unlearn harmful narratives. I also work with immigrants and first-generation individuals balancing cultural expectations and belonging, people facing housing insecurity, discrimination, or racial trauma, and I proudly affirm the 2SLGBTQ+ community around identity, rejection, and access to care.
