My website

As a Registered Psychotherapist, I bring warmth, humour, and encouragement within a holistic, trauma-informed approach. I support clients (18+) navigating family and relationship dynamics, life transitions, and personal growth, while also addressing self-esteem and body image, boundaries, attachment patterns, emotional regulation, substance use, and values clarification to foster a more aligned and fulfilling life. I believe you are the expert in your own life, and we work collaboratively to explore.

Therapy with me is collaborative and reflective. Together, we strengthen boundaries, deepen self-understanding, and align your life with your values. Sessions offer a safe space to explore patterns and create meaningful change. I adapt to your evolving goals and support you through conflict, growth, substance use, and self-esteem concerns.

Reaching out for support can feel vulnerable, and even being here is a meaningful first step. You don’t have to navigate this alone. I offer a warm, non-judgmental space where we can explore what’s weighing on you and move toward meaningful change together. When you’re ready, I welcome you to connect and see if we’re a good fit.
