If you’ve found yourself here, something inside you is ready for change.

I work with individuals living with complex trauma, mood disorders, anxiety, and Borderline Personality Disorder; people who are ready to move beyond survival into deeper self-understanding. My approach is steady, relational, and deeply attuned to your nervous system and lived experience.

Starting therapy can feel daunting - I agree. That’s why my approach is warm, welcoming, and flexible. I don’t expect you to show up in any particular way; I will meet you exactly where you are. Together, we will create space for healing that’s both compassionate and practical.
Wellness starts within. Sometimes it begins with one conversation, one new perspective, or even one lighthearted laugh in the middle of a heavy moment. Clients tell me they appreciate that balance - the ability to hold deep pain with care while also reminding them that joy and healing are possible.

I've worked therapeutically with diverse populations, in correctional and community settings, with families, adolescents and adults, for over 20 years. My approach is nuanced and responsive; my lens is anti-oppressive, attachment and trauma informed, queer and trans affirming, and psycho-dynamically and somatically attuned. To me, this means listening to, and noticing with you, communication from various verbal and non-verbal levels. It also means witnessing and acknowledging cultural, systemic, and familial legacies of power and oppression and their impact on our internal and external lives.

You’re exhausted from surviving instead of truly living, constantly battling anxiety, overwhelm, and the lasting effects of past trauma. Maybe your mind feels like it never quiets down, or your body carries a tension you can’t shake. You dream of waking up feeling calmer, lighter, and at peace, without the constant weight of stress pulling you under. You want relationships that feel supportive and safe rather than draining or confusing. Most of all, you want to feel whole again- to reconnect with the confident, authentic version of yourself that’s been buried under pain and self-doubt. Please know- the life you want is available.

Life can feel heavy at times - especially when relationships, attention, or mood feel hard to manage. You don't have to go through it alone. The process of change can be a difficult one that can be both empowering and uncomfortable. It's normal to feel torn about wanting things to be different and feeling unsure about how to begin. I work with adults who are navigating relationship difficulties, self-esteem issues, depression, anxiety, ADHD, and addictions-based concerns who are ready to understand themselves more deeply.

Psychosis Counsellors
What’s the most effective treatment for psychosis?
The most effective treatment for psychosis is coordinated specialty care. In this model, a team of professionals works with a patient to address all aspects of the underlying disorder. This approach incorporates individual or group therapy, employment and education support, family support and education, medication management (which often involves low doses of antipsychotics), and case management to facilitate problem-solving as needed.
When should people seek treatment for psychosis?
People should seek immediate treatment at the earliest indication of psychosis. Symptoms include delusions, hallucinations, disorganized or blocked speech, and agitated body movements. Early signs that a person may be developing a disorder that will lead to psychosis include suspiciousness of others, memory problems and distractibility, an inability to think clearly, rapid or nonsensical speech, withdrawal from friends or family, aggression toward others, and sensitivity to bright lights or noises.
What if psychosis is left untreated?
Without treatment, psychosis can have significant repercussions, including injuries, job loss, homelessness, financial or legal trouble, ruptured relationships, and suffering for the person and their family. While early treatment for psychosis often yields the best results, there is no point past which it becomes useless to seek treatment. At any point, treatment can make a difference.
How do I get someone else to seek treatment for psychosis?
It’s extremely difficult to watch a loved one suffer from hallucinations, delusions, and other elements of psychosis—sometimes exacerbated by their fears of treatment. Have a conversation with them in a quiet space and maintain a calm, supportive tone. Share your concerns about behaviors you’ve observed, suggest treatment, and explain the potential benefits. Listen carefully to their responses. The person may not be ready after one conversation, but with time, they may come around.
