I am a Two Spirit and Indigiqueer human who comes from mixed ancestry (French, Irish, and Mi’kmaq). My Nation is in the south of Newfoundland at the mouth of the Conne River and is called Miawpukek First Nation. I am a white-presenting Indigenous person which has allocated me privilege in my life and has shaped my experiences. My counselling approach incorporates Indigenous ways of knowing and I work from a holistic approach which includes consideration of our physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual parts of wellness. I work from a strength-based, trauma-informed, client-centered and non-judgmental lens.
I work predominantly to address trauma (including intergenerational, racism, heteronormativity/cisnormativity), 2SLGBTQ+ affirmation and identity exploration, and cultural identity exploration, especially with Indigenous folks. Some western approaches I have found helpful include Internal Family Systems (IFS), Narrative and Polyvagal/Somatic approaches.
As a queer Indigenous person, my Spirit is fueled by supporting folks in the communities I am also a part of. This work is reciprocal. If you feel I may be a good fit, feel free to book a free 15-minute phone or Zoom consultation via the website linked here. You can also find out more about me and my training and specialties.
