My ideal client feels overwhelmed, stuck, and unsure how to move forward. They may struggle with anxiety, depression, concussion related mental health, addiction, OCD, trauma, or challenges in their relationships or career. Many face pressure to appear strong while feeling disconnected or unsure how to express vulnerability. They’re seeking relief, clarity, and practical tools to navigate life’s challenges. Their goal is to feel confident, grounded, and capable of building a life that aligns with their values.

Life is full of unavoidable challenges that sometimes require the support of others to assist us in navigating through them. My support is available to you or your child to help navigating some of life's challenges. I use a person centered approach and offer a calm, non-judgmental, safe space for clients to process your experiences and identify and reach their goals.

Are you someone who is currently experiencing inner turmoil, conflict, or is all too familiar with your inner-critic? You're a deep thinker, reflector, and you haven't been feeling like yourself. If these words resonate you've landed in the right place. Being a human means experiencing hardships at times, and the question that guides my approach to therapy as we navigate these times together is: "Who do you want to be towards yourself during the difficult moments?" Through radical self-compassion and acceptance, there is hope to create positive change in your life.

Reaching out for support can be overwhelming as can beginning a journey to mental wellness. I offer a safe space to be yourself and gain the confidence to meet your mental health goal. My primary purpose in sessions is to create an open space for all of my clients to feel at ease to discuss as little or as much of their therapy goals as they feel comfortable. I do also offer spiritually integrated therapy for those seeking a faith aligned perspective, integrating Christian values into sessions.

The thought arrived uninvited, disturbing, and out of nowhere. You notice yourself overthinking every conversation, running through endless "what-ifs," and worrying about scenarios even when things are going well. You keep things bottled up until they leak out as irritability or distance, yet all your planning still doesn't bring relief. There is a way forward that doesn't involve just "trying harder" to stay calm. I work with adults, professionals, and children who are often the "steady ones" everyone else leans on. On the outside, you look fine, but on the inside, you are quietly running on empty, you are exhausted.

I weave together my experiences in mental health care with Somatic Experiencing (with optional hands-on touch work), Internal Family Systems/parts work, nature-based therapy, attachment theory, polyvagal theory and general fun facts about the nervous system.

You may feel stuck in the same patterns: overwhelmed by anxiety, low self-esteem, or life changes that feel hard to manage.

Trauma, addiction, and mental health struggles are all too familiar for countless people in Canada. These challenges often feel like overwhelming mountains, blocking the light and making it hard to see the path ahead. Yet, there is no reason for anyone to walk this path alone. My approach to holistic care is neither formulaic nor prescriptive. Rather, it is compassionate and patient. I blend evidence-based therapies, such as CBT, ACT, DBT with somatic techniques and energy medicine to nurture and support one meaningful step at a time.

Therapy is a place where you can come as you are. I like to think of therapy as a conversation. Think about that for a second. You have conversations daily with friends, and family members. Therapy is just an extension of that conversation. You can vent with friends, and with family, but a conversation with a therapist allows you to become unstuck from the cycle you may be in where you are venting, but not actually making any progress. Therapy really is for everyone. Whether you have long standing concerns, are in a crisis, or need to work through a problem right now, we are here to help.

If you feel out of control of your feelings, I'm here to help! I am a queer, neurodivergent therapist, and I bring a unique combination of biology-based and intuitive practices to my work. I am drawn to the deep work of psychotherapy, that goes beyond listening and coping skills, into the root of issues to resolve them. I support people who are struggling in their relationships, who want to not just manage, but understand and resolve their feelings, and those who want more fulfillment out of life. I work particularly in areas like ADHD, anxiety, sex therapy, relationships and supporting neurodivergence.

Being human is messy. You are not alone.
Maybe you’re the one who keeps it together on the outside. You get through your day—at school, work, or home—but inside, it’s a different story. Your mind replays conversations. You second-guess what you said. You try to make sense of what you’re feeling, but the words don’t quite come, and it all starts to feel heavy.
You might be used to carrying this on your own, telling yourself it’s not a big deal, or that you should be able to handle it. Over time, it can start to feel overwhelming, when really, you’re responding in a very human way.
