You've already recognized that you're ready to make positive changes in your life. Let me help you get out of the water on to to dry land.

Choosing a therapist can be an intimidating task. Whether you are looking for a check in, or to make major or minor changes, I would be honored to support you in your journey. I aim to be as intentional as possible in my sessions. Helping you identify your goals, gain a further understanding of the barriers you face and where they developed and make a tangible plan to get you to where you want to be. I strive to create a safe and comfortable environment for my clients, with a splash of humor while we navigate your experiences and emotions. You can find me on the Power Psychology Website where I offer a free 15 minute consultation.

I work predominantly with folks who are racialized, 2SLGBTIQ, neurodivergent, and/or disabled. Often, those I work with have been diagnosed with borderline personality disorder; experience identity-based trauma; struggle with relationships, emotional regulation, or impulsivity; want greater self-awareness or understanding; want to feel a sense of belonging, connection, and safety; or generally, want more joy in their lives.

Do you experience a constant feeling of unease? Do simple tasks feel overwhelming to you? Getting out of bed may seem like an insurmountable obstacle, and going to work or socializing with friends might feel like monumental challenges. It's as if you're navigating a constant storm, and there may be a fear of making mistakes or not meeting expectations. If this sounds familiar, know that you don't have to continue feeling this way. You deserve more from life, and I want to help you reach a place where you feel good again.

I'm a dedicated professional, committed to personal growth and helping others. I began my journey in 2012, gaining valuable experience in various settings, including community health organizations, hospices, and primary schools. My empathetic approach is impactful for individuals dealing with stress, depression, anxiety, parenting, relationships, anger, and grief. I draw from techniques like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy (SFT), Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), and Mindfulness, empowering individuals to heal and rewrite their life stories.

My ideal family is one that is tired of hurting each other. My ideal family has at least one family member, usually a teenager, impacted by drugs, alcohol, and process addictions like video games. The healthy part of the family is motivated by fear to use control to stop their teenager from their addictive behaviour. If control is ineffective then power struggles can develop which tear at the family power structures. My ideal family has at least one family member who learns addictions are rooted in multigerational issues, trauma, and mental illness. Families want healthy loving interconnections and not power struggles.
