Life can throw us curveballs, and sometimes it helps to navigate these challenges with a mental health professional. I believe therapy is most effective when there is a strong therapeutic relationship and a clear understanding of the factors that underlie a person's concerns. Therefore, I spend time during our initial sessions exploring your personal history, developing a collaborative treatment plan, and helping you get to the root of your concerns.
I provide evidence-based therapy to help people increase their self-awareness, identify unhelpful behaviours, and cope more effectively with challenges. I strive to create a warm, nonjudgmental environment where each client feels heard, understood, and respected. I provide 2SLGBTQ+ affirming care that is intersectional, anti-oppressive, and trauma-informed.
I know how important it is to find the right fit with your therapist. Therefore, I offer a free 15-minute phone or video consultation so we can get to know each other better before beginning therapy. Please contact me to book an appointment or consultation.

My approach is largely informed by CBT, which emphasizes the connections between our thoughts, emotions, and behaviours. I also incorporate mindfulness techniques, which involve intentionally bringing one's attention to the present moment without judgment. I am trained in treating trauma-related symptoms and facilitating post-traumatic growth.
