Do you feel stuck, numb, overwhelmed, or consumed with worry? Are you navigating living with borderline personality or bipolar disorder? Do you struggle with low self-esteem and self-criticism? You are not alone, and I can help. I am deeply passionate about supporting BPD, trauma, anxiety and mood disorders, self-esteem, grief/loss, and chronic pain/illness. I will take care to provide you with individualized support based on my life experience, training, and education. I offer a warm, safe, and judge-free space where you can explore ways to increase your well-being, work on your goals, and feel empowered to make meaningful changes.
I take an evidence-based, integrative approach, incorporating client centered, CBT, DBT, ACT, and psychodynamic therapy. This lets me tailor therapy to fit your unique needs and goals. Whether you're navigating challenges, wanting to develop coping strategies, or seeking personal growth, insight, or acceptance, I'm here to support you every step of the way.
Living with constant anxiety or depression, chronic pain, intense emotions, overwhelming mood swings, or persistent self doubt can be exhausting and isolating- I would be honored to offer a space where you feel truly heard, seen, and supported. I offer in-person sessions in Royal Oak, BC, and virtual sessions BC wide, welcoming people from all walks of life.

Therapy with me is about exploring the connections between thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, gaining personal insight from patterns and themes, and understanding how past experiences shape the present. I help my clients develop skills to regulate emotions, calm the nervous system, tolerate distress, and improve relationships. Together, we will work toward living in alignment with your values.
