I work with individuals and offer supervision. Based on an assessment with you, we determine the best approach to meet your goals, and emotional needs towards personal health and growth. A few of the therapeutic approaches I use include, but not limited to, CBT which highlights thoughts, dysfunctional (unhelpful) thinking, and assumptions. We explore the unique meaning you make of situations and events. I also use Emotionally Focussed Therapy, mindfulness techniques that rely on neurosciences to restore emotional integrity, narrative therapy, and reconstruction therapy.

We help people overcome anxiety, people pleasing, life changes, or the constant pressure to always “be okay.” Is this you: Maybe your mind won’t stop racing, regardless of how tired you are? Or, maybe you’ve been holding it all together for everyone else? Smiling on the outside, while inside you feel like you’re barely keeping up? We get it—the exhaustion of overthinking, the pressure to be perfect, the weight of masking who you really are, and the quiet fear that maybe this is just how life will always feel. At Noia, we see you, and we're here to help. We use evidence-based tools to create lasting and deep change.

I work from the belief that the patterns causing you the most pain right now made sense at some point. They were adaptations, not flaws. Understanding where they came from is usually where real change begins.
I’m a registered social worker and therapist with over 20 years of experience. I work with individuals and couples using attachment theory as my foundation, which means we look at how your early relationships shaped the ways you connect, protect yourself, and show up in the world now. From there I draw on CBT, IFS, and trauma-informed care depending on what you need.

We all face challenges from time to time. Sometimes, we are able to adequately handle the dilemma by ourselves. Sometimes, though, the problem is much too difficult, and we can use some help. At those times, it is good to know that the kind of help we need is available. It often takes courage to reach for help, particularly to participate in therapy which can feel disruptive and frightening. To be honest, it often is but can be less distressing by compassionate, non-judgmental support. I know it is not easy, but why not call for support anyhow? A safe environment was created just for you. It would be my privilege to help.
