You may be feeling stuck in patterns that are confusing, painful, or hard to shift. I offer a collaborative, non-judgmental space to explore the deeper emotional and relational dynamics shaping your symptoms, sense of self, and relationships, while also working toward practical change in your daily life. My work is grounded in a psychodynamic approach, which I use as the primary framework for understanding each client’s history, attachment patterns, and inner world. From this foundation, I tailor evidence-based approaches to your goals and needs, including cognitive-behavioural therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy.
I work with adults navigating trauma and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), dissociation, anxiety, depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), eating disorders, perfectionism, self-esteem concerns, identity questions, and relationship difficulties. I also support clients exploring gender identity and sexual orientation.
I also conduct psychodiagnostic, personality, and ADHD assessments; and assessments for trans clients seeking gender-affirming medical interventions. In addition, I supervise the work of trainees in clinical psychology and other mental health disciplines. My practice is 2SLGBTQ+ affirming, and I am attuned to the impact of oppression on psychological health.

I use several therapy models including psychodynamic therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, and cognitive-behavioural therapy. I help clients to examine how unhelpful patterns/symptoms may have been earlier adaptations to difficult situations outside of their control. We explore how these adaptations impact current functioning, and work on developing other ways of relating to self and others.
