I am a trained creative arts therapist, somatic practitioner, a member of the North American Drama Therapy Association & a member of the Canadian Counselling & Psychotherapy Associtation. My approach to therapy is essentially somatic, trauma-informed, person-centered and anchored in the assumptions of liberation psychology, anti-oppression & response-based practice. Together, we can work towards your goals and support you in remembering and reconnecting to your own inherent resiliency or sacred resources for navigating life’s many challenges. I can support you by being a compassionate companion on your journey.
I am committed to a decolonized or re-indigenized view of health. Instead of viewing behavior and symptoms through the lens of pathology, I ask: How has your nervous system been responding to the world around it, and why? How can we work together to hold both compassion and curiosity around your experiences, while moving closer to your authentic desires?
I am currently accepting new clients. I offer sessions in English & French. You may email me to book a 20-min consulation call before booking a session. Normal rate: 150$ per session. Low-cost option available based on my capacity.
