Do you feel like you're holding it all together on the outside, while inside you're exhausted? Maybe you find yourself constantly overthinking, questioning yourself, putting others' needs ahead of your own, and wondering why you keep ending up in the same relationships and patterns. If this sounds familiar, you're not alone. My practice is dedicated to helping you reconnect with your innate strengths and resilience, and find your way back to yourself. My approach is warm, collaborative, and curious. Together, we'll begin building new ways of relating to yourself and others, that feel more authentic and aligned.

I integrate evidence-based approaches through a mind-body lens and am EMDR trained. My dual Master's background in physiology and psychology shapes the way I understand emotional well-being, and how our experiences are not only reflected in our thoughts, but also deeply engrained throughout our bodies and nervous systems.

I offer a free 30-minute consultation and same-week availability. Therapy is most meaningful when it's rooted in authentic connection, and I invite you to reach out for the chance to simply exhale, ask questions, and see whether we might be the right fit.

Treatment Approach

Types of Therapy

Acceptance and Commitment (ACT)
Attachment-based
Cognitive Behavioural (CBT)
Culturally Sensitive
EMDR
Internal Family Systems (IFS)
Narrative
Schema Therapy
Solution Focused Brief (SFBT)
Somatic
Strength-Based

Every person is different, so I tailor therapy to fit you rather than expecting you to fit a particular approach. I integrate Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Narrative Therapy, Schema Therapy, and mindfulness-based practices amongst other modalities, with EMDR available from an attachment- and somatic-informed perspective when deeper processing feels appropriate.
