Sometimes life asks more of us than we can comfortably carry. I offer a warm, supportive space where we can slow down, reflect, and explore your experiences. While I support folks across several concerns, including anxiety, shame, and neurodivergence, my practice tends to focus on relational distress. I pull from attachment theory and trauma-informed approaches to navigate difficult relationships, both past and present. As social beings, we find resilience through vulnerable and validating connections, which I aim to collaboratively create within our therapeutic alliance.

I am a Canadian Certified Counsellor (CCC) who aims to create safe spaces for people to navigate their struggles, stressors, and healing journeys. My approach to counselling is grounded in mindfulness-based therapy, which gives people the tools they need to become more aware of their present moment thoughts and feelings and helps identify how they may impact overall well-being. I operate from an anti-oppressive and trauma-informed lens. While working together, I hope that my clients feel heard, supported, and empowered to achieve their goals.

Hi! I am a therapist with a deep passion + appreciation for all things body.

Protecting your mental health is essential. We all have problems, periods of stress and challenges in life that strain our ability to cope at times. However, when you have a mental or physical health issue that is taking a toll on your wellness, that becomes your main issue.
If you're feeling dysregulated, which is common during times of stress, focusing on self-care, mindfulness, and grounding practices can help. If your nervous system is working hard to protect you, you may feel overwhelmed and you deserve support. During appointments, we can explore and develop strategies to help you feel like yourself again.
