Working as both a psychotherapist and clinical supervisor, I support those impacted by trauma, including anxiety, depression, and interpersonal issues.
Whether it's physical trauma that leads to PTSD or emotional, mental, or generational trauma, I can assist you in exploring the emotional, behavioural, cognitive, and spiritual impacts of your trauma. I believe that there is no right or wrong way to experience grief and trauma, and I can help you navigate difficult decisions and develop self-care practices.

We can't change society (immediately) but we can come to understand the negative effects it's had on us whether that be a distorted self-image, issues with our gender or sexuality, anxiety and depression, etc.
It is no measure of health to be well-adjusted to a profoundly sick society. -Krishnamurti Although things are getting better in some regards, outdated societal pressures and norms, as well as modern technology and newly implemented ways of living are weighing heavy on many of us. Anxiety is at an all-time peak, addiction continues to climb and although we have more comforts than at any time in history, we are increasingly unhappy. If you're feeling the strain of this, want to connect to something deeper within yourself, or are finding yourself more dysregulated than ever (with all the associated difficulties), let's connect.

I have experience with PTSD, attachment issues, depression/anxiety, spirituality, self-worth/self-esteem issues, shame, neurodivergence, and I am passionate about diversity and integrating a cultural perspective for marginalized groups/bicultural individuals.
Do you remember when you were learning how to ride a bike? Undoubtedly, the process of learning was through trial, error, and perhaps guidance from a caregiver. It’s a common conception that a therapist’s role is to give advice. That is not the case. My role in our therapeutic relationship is to guide you through the process – just like learning to ride a bike for the first time. It takes effort, time, and perhaps some discomfort…But the “aha” moment of finding balance brings a sense of freedom and independence.

These experiences can leave us feeling alone, hurt, disconnected, confused, depressed, anxious, lost.
My understanding of health and well-being is wholistic: inviting mind (reflection), body (somatics), values/beliefs (meaning), community (social) and environment (nature) into the therapeutic process. I endeavour to create a therapeutic space that is care-full and compassionate, that invites curiosity and fosters respect for self and for each other.

Although I specialize in marriage and familes, I love working with individuals battling mental health concerns such as depression, anxiety, past trauma, grief, addictions, and more.
I have been working with children, youth, and famiIies for 20 years. I work from a systems perspective which means I look at each person's place in the family system and the influence one has on the other and how they affect personal issues. I am trained in the Gottman method (level two). With individuals, I use cognitive behavioral therapy techniques.
