As a Registered Psychologist (CAP) and Certified Sex Therapist (AASECT), I work with adults in sex therapy, couples counselling, individual counselling, trauma therapy, gender-affirming therapy, and EMDR therapy. My clients often seek clarity, healing, and connection, whether navigating intimacy challenges, rebuilding relationships, or recovering from trauma. I provide a safe, affirming space where you feel seen and supported, so you can explore personal concerns and move toward living authentically and aligned with your true potential.

One of the few clinicians in Alberta certified in sex therapy (AASECT), I offer sex therapy, couples counselling, individual counselling, trauma therapy, gender-affirming therapy, and EMDR. Using Gottman Method, CBCT, CPT, and a trauma-informed, LGBTQ2S+ and kink-affirming approach, I help clients heal, connect, and thrive.

Seeking help can feel overwhelming, especially when you’ve been carrying pain, confusion, or disconnection alone. Whether you’re facing intimacy challenges, relationship struggles, trauma, or identity questions, you deserve a safe, affirming space. I offer compassionate, evidence-based care to help you heal, grow, and live authentically.
