I support individuals and couples+ to cultivate safety and aliveness. We’re wired to seek them both - a sense of ease, security, and belonging - as well as adventure, freedom, and play. It’s no wonder we get stuck sometimes, when these needs are enticingly paradoxical. Whether working individually or as a couple+, enriching our intimacy and independence often involves tending to the influence of the past. I will be your co-conspirator as you unravel the habitual ways of being and relating that protected your heart in the times that were the most painful, lonely, and violent.

Now accepting new clients. Feeling stuck and alone? Life can be just hard. Sometimes we find ourselves feeling all kinds of feelings and we don't know what to do about it - we feel utterly alone and lost. I would love to support you to find a path forward and move more easily and authentically through life. I've helped people like you find a path through: anxiety, ADHD, trauma, emotion dysregulation, depression, insecure attachment patterns, and all kinds of life changes. My favourite part of this process is helping you see your situation differently, because once that happens things can get so much better.

I provide a space for your story to be heard and held with compassion, care, and gentle curiosity. I believe therapy is a mutual and collaborative process grounded in genuine connection, trust, safety, and a commitment to seeing one another in our wholeness—we are more than our trauma or our current challenge. We are a people with a rich history, ancestral wisdom, and embodied knowledge. We also have joy, dreams, and an innate ability to heal. I come to this work with the understanding that healing is nourished through connection, community, justice, and collective liberation.

You don’t have to navigate life’s challenges alone. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, mood disorders, chronic stress, or navigating complex relationships, I offer a supportive space where we can work together to move toward change. With over 20 years of experience as a social worker, I provide compassionate, evidence-based care to help you feel more grounded, capable, and connected.

You’ve worked hard to build the life you have. On the outside, it may look like you’ve got it all together—but inside, you might feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or exhausted. Whether you’re navigating the challenges of new parenthood, struggling to find harmony in your relationship, or managing anxiety that feels all-consuming, you don’t have to go through it alone.
I specialize in supporting high achievers who want not just success, but fulfillment—people who crave meaningful relationships and a life that feels worth living. Parenthood brings deep joy, but also uncertainty. Relationships can be loving, yet complicated.

From the time you walk into my office (or we meet online), we will do a complete assessment together, discuss your concerns/needs and plan goals accordingly. I am a client-centered therapist and let my clients lead the session because I believe that a client is the leader of their life, and they are allowing me to walk with them on the journey of self-discovery. I check-in with my clients from time to time to know if they are reaching their goals with each session.

Giving space and time to reflect on this wild and mysterious life is vital to wellbeing - no one is meant to do this journey alone. There are many possibilities for learning to tolerate, reclaim, and transform the inner psychological landscape. In therapy, my expertise and passion is working with adults on adjusting to change, grief, trauma, anxiety, stress, relationship issues, shedding toxic societal messages, setting boundaries, building inner resources, and reclaiming joy, pleasure, and creativity. I also support clients practicing Ethical Non-Monogamy (ENM).

You’re figuring things out (career, relationships, direction..) and doing your best to keep up. But even when things look fine from the outside -inside it can feel like you’re running on empty. You overthink decisions, hold yourself to high standards, and wonder if you’re "falling behind". You want steadiness, perspective, and emotional insight - not just to cope, but to grow.
Sound familiar?
Many of my clients are professionals and university students who are coming to therapy to navigate transitions, manage anxiety, and feel more grounded in who they know themselves to be.

Are you worried about the intensity of your emotions, wondering why you are struggling with relationships, finding parenting overwhelming, or grieving the loss of a loved one?
Life can really hit us hard. It takes courage to acknowledge it when we are struggling. I am glad you are here.
I will help you connect with and build a deeper understanding of yourself. It is from this meeting ourselves where we are at, that we can begin to heal. I also welcome all your emotions. I believe emotions, curiosity and creativity are the keys to our healing. In full expression we come to know who we are, what we need, and how to heal.

Facing life's challenges can be difficult. It is made easier when accompanied by a therapist who is accepting, supportive and challenges us to face our vulnerabilities with compassion and courage, while making meaningful changes in our lives and relationships. I work with various issues including anxiety, depression, grief, stress, abuse, or trauma. I offer a warm, non-judgmental, relational approach in which you can find strength, confidence, and enduring change.

The many milestones and transitions, expected and unexpected, that we experience in life are often made heavier and more overwhelming by the layers of expectation, preconceptions, and outside pressure that can accompany them. The idea that you’re supposed to follow a certain path, make a certain choice, or even have a certain reaction can dominate the experience of navigating any challenge. Therapy can help to identify and illuminate these external factors and make it possible to access your true feelings, hopes, and intentions, providing a non-judgemental and compassionate space where you can be heard, seen, and understood.

My approach to therapy and supervision is practical, creative, humorous, and interactive. When the strategies that were previously helpful are no longer working, I support folks to cultivate new perspectives and skills in a comfortable and collaborative way. Sometimes, we keep repeating old patterns even when we are trying to be different. I use techniques that can help with getting unstuck, and reveal old wounds that keep showing up. I bring almost twenty years of experience and training to this work. Clients find my approach helpful within the first few sessions. I am currently welcoming couples and clinicians seeking supervision.

If you’re feeling worn down from constantly managing your emotions, second-guessing yourself, or pushing through exhaustion, therapy can be a place to finally slow things down. Many people I work with are thoughtful, capable, and self-aware, yet feel stuck in cycles of burnout, anxiety, depression, motional overwhelm, or self-blame that don’t seem to change no matter how hard they try. Therapy can help you learn how to regulate emotions without shutting down.
I support you in building systems that actually align with your energy levels and how your brain works, rather than forcing yourself into strategies that never quite fit.

As a somatic therapist, I support clients in working with both the mind and the body. You may look like you're holding it together, but inside, you feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or stuck in patterns you can’t fully explain. My approach is shaped by over 20 years of experience in osteopathic practice and neurobiology, grounded in deep respect for the body’s ability to hold story, adapt for survival, and move through the intelligent process of healing. Somatic therapy offers the opportunity to go beyond words, working directly with the body to access deeper layers of healing and awareness to help disrupt reflexive patterns.
