There is a world deficit in joy. I see my role in counselling as helping folks discover what living freely, meaningfully and joyfully means for them by spending time in the depth as well as in the light. My job is to walk along side you in your journey to wellness, satisfaction and self-discovery while shining lights on parts of your story that demonstrate your other ways of being that are empowered, and sitting with you in difficult emotions as a way to feel them and move them out. Maybe you'll discover more room for what you want to store within you once you've released what no longer serves.
Areas of Focus: depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, alcohol use, self-esteem/negative self-talk, life transitions, anger, LGBTQ, stress, career/workplace issues, perfectionism, challenges with working in the arts and entertainment industry, youth and adolescent issues, first responders, non-ordinary states of consciousness, psychedelic-assisted therapy.
I am a Certified Laughter Yoga Leader, a musical theatre actor, an improv comedian, an aspiring writer and a dodgeball player. I have also completed the Bardic Grade of the Order of Bards, Ovates and Druids and am currently enrolled in the Ovate Grade to support my current learning of Celtic Shamanism.
