Lesbian Therapists in N3W

As a therapist and supervisor, I build connections that are genuine, accepting and encouraging, holding space that gently fosters sharing, reflection and growth. I work from a systemic approach that is strengths-based and collaborative, bringing appreciation to the impact of external factors on experiences, while building awareness and offering challenges around personal potential, capabilities and influence. Along our journey together, I hope to share how living and working mindfully, intentionally and compassionately can evolve our beliefs about ourselves and others, transforming our relationships and our experiences of the world.

I specialize in treating anxiety, trauma and addictions (both behavioral and substance related). I have been in the counselling field since 2012 and bring experience and extensive training to my practice. I believe that with the right support, we are all able to overcome challenges that we never thought possible. I am an approved Mental Health Provider for the NIHB Program for eligible First Nations People. Online sessions also available. I am trained in a variety of methods, including Brainspotting and EMDR for trauma.

I am a Registered Social Worker (OCSWSSW) with more than 15 years experience. I work with individuals who encounter various mental health and life challenges. My approach is eclectic, playful, and trauma informed. I am inspired by peoples stories and the moments that lead us toward embracing our authentic selves. I am passionate about working with the LGBTQIA2S communities. I am also available to supporting friends and families who may be experiencing difficulty in their relationships with those in the LGBTQIA2S communities.

The goal of my practice is to provide a safe, and supportive environment, creating space for you to process your thoughts and emotions. I work alongside clients to create a life with authentic joy and develop a "toolbox" of skills. These skills help deal with negative emotion regulation, impulsive reactions and effective communication. I will tailor each session to your individual needs, drawing on various modalities such as Dialectic Behaviour Therapy, Cognitive Behaviour Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, and Narrative Therapy with a trauma-informed lens.
