I specialize in supporting children, youth, young adults, families and caregivers through challenging times. I largely focus on supporting individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, and mood disorders. I also provide therapy for individuals experiencing a sudden loss or recent life change. I am passionate about walking alongside caregivers as they navigate their child’s mental health journey and strive to share new perspectives in situations that feel hopeless.

I spent about 10 years in the highest burnout sectors of social work. From this experience, I have developed a keen trauma-informed perspective, supporting populations navigating systemic barriers and compounded complex mental health. I have also worked with a large breadth of mental health diagnoses, within every category of the DSM, from a client-centered and strengths based framework. With this experience, and practicing therapy modalities that are transferable to various mental health difficulties, I would say that I am a generalist.

My approach is 2S-LGBTQIA+ affirming, intersectional, neurodiversity-affirming, collaborative, and integrative, creating space for meaning-making and a diverse range of identities. I worked in health care for 13 years, supporting people of varied ethno-cultural backgrounds, and have completed Indigenous cultural safety/ anti-racism training. I've worked with 2S and LGBTQIA+ people in group settings and individually. (Please note that I'm unable to write a second letter of assessment for bottom surgery, but can refer.) My office is in a building that is accessible and a positive space. It is scent-free and sensory friendly.

Currently, we are living in a world that is at best tense, and finding our peace is a daily struggle. In our lives, we are encouraged to, told, and at times, forced to continue as if nothing is happening or seriously wrong. In my practice, I provide space for open dialogue and a holistic approach to therapy which encourages recovery and healing. In my over 17 years of working as a clinical social worker with youths and adults ranging from diverse & intersectional backgrounds, I have learned that the space we create together in combination with the relational work is the most important.

It takes courage to reach out for support when not knowing what to do. That can be quite a lonely and painful experience, together with feeling disconnected, stuck and overwhelmed. You can get a better understanding of your feelings and behaviors, see how you are entrenched in your own patterns or how you get in your own way, process past experiences and just talk about heavy stuff without feeling like a burden. This work can bring you closer to understanding and experiencing your authentic self.

As an RP (Qualifying) I am interested in helping individuals navigate the complexities of being a human in their own individual experiences holding a sacred and respectful space for all that arises while working together. I firmly believe that every person is shaped by their environment and that everyone enters this world with a unique purpose and inherently good intentions. It is through the human condition that trauma arises by way of experiences which can sometimes lead people away from their path of self-actualization. In each session clients are reminded of whole self, to guide them on their journey to acceptance and healing.

You are an individual. There is no one else quite like you. Your therapy should be as unique as you are. We are all the products of our past, from experiences that happened so long ago that they escape memory to what happened just as we opened the door to the present moment. Through it all, we learn the skills that protect us on this journey through the interpersonal world. We sometimes struggle to be our authentic selves because there is no SELF without the context of the OTHER. Each of us is a single being trying to be seen as we see ourselves in a never ending sea of often confusing but always important social interaction.
