My approach is trauma-informed and holistic, recognizing that trauma doesn’t just live in the mind, it’s held in the body, shaping how we think, feel, and relate to ourselves and others.
In addition to other modalities, I am trained in EMDR, which can help process painful emotions, traumatic memories, and past experiences that may still be affecting you in the present. I also work from a culturally responsive, socially just framework, honouring your unique identity and experiences while acknowledging the impact of systemic factors.

Every individual I have the opportunity to meet carries with them a collection of unique experiences, thoughts, beliefs, values and goals. As humans, we all have periods in our lives when we think, “things are not how they should or ought to be” and this may lead us to a place where we may not be feeling like ourselves. I genuinely believe that you, as a client, are the expert at your own life, but sometimes, even experts can use a little fine tuning- this is one of the functions of therapy! I promise to provide you with the highest quality service that is tailored to your specific needs.
