Once terrified of bears and cougars, now a forest-dwelling trauma therapist. Life comes at you fast. In session, I help people reclaim their lives from the stories they were never meant to carry - stories written by pain, circumstance, and cruel voices. As a trauma and couples therapist, my favourite part of the work is watching people realize they’re healing, and that the joy they thought was gone forever is still right there, waiting to be invited back in. In my virtual office, we laugh, we cry, we dream, we dismantle inner tyrannies. It's a vibe.
On paper: Master’s degree, highly trained in trauma therapy, grief nerd. Off paper: Dog-obsessed, beach lover, the only Italian in the room who gets sunburned in 5 minutes flat. If you're into curious minds, emotional depth, and obsessing over Animal Crossing or Hogwarts Legacy, we’ll probably get along.
In general, my approach to counselling is a collaborative one. I aim to illuminate your inner strengths and empower you to connect with them, while drawing from my own expertise in various evidence-based therapies. Together, we will create a calm, accepting space where curiosity and compassion thrive, allowing the path to healing to reveal itself.

I specialize in couples therapy, trauma/PTSD, & mood disorders. In our first few sessions, we will get curious about what gets in the way of you living the life you want. Together, we will create a plan to help you achieve your goals by addressing the root causes of your current issues, deepening connections, and learning new coping skills.

The therapy treatments I use most often include Gottman Method, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, and EMDR Therapy. That being said, I am what is known as an integrative therapist, meaning that I don't rigidly stick to one form of therapy. I prefer to create highly individualized treatment plans, choosing the tools and strategies from various modalities which are most likely to help you.
