My approach is grounded in the belief that we are all doing the very best we can with the resources, knowledge and experience we have. That being said, we can always continue to learn and grow….and this is where we start. I have spent the bulk of my professional life supporting people with compounding experiences of marginalization and structural vulnerability, including experiences from childhood that may continue to linger and live in this very moment. I believe in the practice of weaving together therapeutic strategies to ensure individualized and personalized care.

Do you feel lost on your path due to a specific issue, or feelings you can't clearly identify? Do you feel stuck and cannot talk to those around you? Or are you lonely and isolated, burned out or emotionally and physically exhausted? Are you looking to understand yourself on a deeper level? Stressors in our everyday lives, Relationships, Systemic Barriers and Trauma from the past can live in us and manifest as Depression, Anxiety, Physical pain and Insomnia. It is painful and uncertain, and can cause a lack of confidence in how to move forward. Therapy is used to explore these issues and gain lifelong tools to support yourself.

I am an experienced psychotherapist working with children, youth, and caregivers in community mental health and private practice settings since 2016. I use an integrative approach in my practice and draw from a range of therapeutic modalities depending on your specific needs, situation, and your hopes for therapy. This could include elements of body-based and relational approaches, CBT and DBT therapies, narrative therapy, and trauma-focused therapy.

Taking the first step toward self-care and healing can be intimidating! I understand, empathize, and welcome you to share your story within a safe, accepting, and non-judgemental space. Each person is an expert in the story of their own lives – no one knows you better than you know yourself. My role is to help facilitate change, promote positive growth, and foster healing. Using integrative approaches, including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and the tools of mindfulness, I help adults and adolescents move past stuck feelings of fear, anxiety, depression, and trauma.

Have you experienced a stressful or traumatic life event that has impacted your ability to focus or cope with the everyday? Trauma continues to live in our systems long after the event has happened, sometimes remaining hidden until something triggers it to come to the surface. Trauma can manifest itself in a variety of ways, including physical pain, lead to anxiety, depression, attachment or relationship difficulties, low self-esteem, addictions, and can impact our perceptions leading to unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviours. My clients report a reduction in their symptoms, describe feeling calmer, lighter, and more present.

Has your child been experiencing difficulty recently? Do they need additional coping strategies to help them succeed? I would be happy to help. I have been a successful mental health practitioner for 10+ years, working with children and youth between the ages of 4 and 21. I work from a trauma-informed lens using a strength-based perspective.

Welcome. My practice is focused on supporting people to move beyond simply coping to fully resolving traumatic incidents, past events, and current challenges in their lives.

I specialize in providing trauma-focused therapy and to children, youth, and adults who have experienced interpersonal trauma. I have advanced training and expertise working working with first responders and First Nations communities impacted by trauma.

Sometimes all we want is to be heard, to have someone fully present for us. We experience this from family and friends but there is always an underlying judgement or opinion that direct us where we may not want to go. A lot of times talking to a stranger sounds like an intrusive or uncomfortable situation to be in, but I can assure you once you get past the first fearful step, you will learn that it's a form of self care that will stay with you for a lifetime.
