I use a range of techniques to support our work together: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to address unhelpful thought patterns, mindfulness practices to keep you grounded, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to manage intense emotions.
Do you feel like your emotions shift suddenly without warning? Do you find yourself at odds with your own thoughts and feelings, often engaging in self-sabotage, ending relationships impulsively, or struggling with a constant push and pull in your relationships with yourself and others? It can feel like an emotional rollercoaster—one you wish you could step off, only to find yourself back on the ride before you realize it. Together, we can get to the core of these experiences and uncover the underlying causes. Through our work, we’ll develop tools and skills to help you reshape your relationship with yourself and others.

As a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), I have additional training in Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy, as well as a second Master's degree in Religion, Culture and Global Justice.
Facing everyday challenges is not always easy; however, when we come to better understand what is happening within us and in our lives, we are much better equipped to make changes. I believe therapy is a wonderful avenue to support this journey, and I consider it a deep privilege to support people through life’s highs and lows. I see my role as one of helping people to take on the challenge of navigating life with greater ease and grace. Together, we can find strength, hope, and healing, no matter what you might be facing.

As a Registered Psychotherapist, I practice a unified and trauma-informed approach to growth and healing that spans the spectrum of psychotherapy, counselling, coaching, parenting guidance, and Zen mindfulness.
I have been in private practice since 2000, assisting individuals, couples, and groups from across Canada and the United States—as well as overseas locations such as Croatia, England, Finland, Germany, Ireland, Japan, Poland, Scotland, Slovakia, and Sweden.

The modalities I use include IFS, talk therapy, somatic experiencing, Enneagram, Gestalt exercises, psychodynamic psychoanalysis, guided meditation/ mindfulness, inner-child and energy work.
I work with adults who want more freedom from negative patterns and insight about the root of reactivity. They want to experience calm and peace. They want help with healthy boundaries, anxiety, self-worth, depression, life direction, co-dependency, communication, addiction, relationships (with self, the Divine, life partner, ex-partner, children, family, co-workers), emotional regulation, grief, loss/divorce, chronic pain, parenting, spiritual growth and psychedelic integration. Carrying the past makes current life difficult. Helping clients accept the past, learn from it and then let it go is what I love doing best.

The evidence based treatment approaches I draw from include: Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness-based Therapy, and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT).
Sometimes life can be overwhelming and stressful, thus making it difficult to cope. Therefore, my hope is to help you work through some of your issues (i.e., anxiety, grief, loss) that you are struggling with by providing the skills, insight, and knowledge you need to lead a life you want. I know talking to someone about painful emotions and memories can be difficult so thank you for taking the first step to seeking help.

Some of the modalities I use include Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy, ASSIST, Trauma-Focused Modalities, Play therapy, Narrative Therapy, Mindfulness & Relaxation - but ultimately we will use the method that feels best for you, to best facilitate space for you to be open to explore how you are feeling and how those feelings are impacting your day to day life.
Accepting New Clients! In Person & Online Sessions - I am passionate about helping individuals aged 5-25 who struggle with anxiety, depression, or low self-esteem. Maybe you’re carrying the weight of trauma, struggling with anger, grief, or navigating tricky friendships and family issues, including the impact of the experiences as a foster child. For kids struggling with anger, grief, or tricky friendship & family issues, it can feel as though joy in childhood is lost. Similarly, as a young adult who lacked support as a child and recognize how this could have an impact on your future, now is the time to reach out for support.

I’ll be an active guide through the process, tying in communication skills, body-based tools, and mindfulness strategies (if that's your thing!)
Are you feeling anxious, overwhelmed, and burnt out? Do you find yourself so caught up in the ‘what ifs’ that you struggle to enjoy what is? Perhaps you put on a carefree mask for the outside world, but inside you’re quietly suffering from racing thoughts, feelings of dread, and a harsh inner critic. When fear and self-doubt take over, they can drive you to avoid the things that make life most meaningful, like taking risks, having hard conversations, and building deeper relationships. I'm here to help you overcome these unhelpful patterns to create a life of more connection and fulfillment.

I use a variety of different modalities including EMDR, Emotion Focused, body based therapies as well as Buddhist Psychology/ Mindfulness.
Building connections with ourselves and others is one of the most important components of a fulfilling life. However, negative messages from the world and our past experiences/ traumas can often make us feel like we are not good enough. This negative self-talk and self-doubt can make it difficult to form meaningful connections and enjoy life the way we want to, leaving us feeling overwhelmed, anxious, confused, or stuck.
