I use EMDR to work through trauma with clients while also using Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and Narrative Therapy to help clients explore their emotional experiences and reshape the stories they tell about themselves.
Reaching out for support can be a very challenging task but it is also the first step to get you closer to living your preferred life. In therapy, we will work together to clarify your life's vision, explore what is getting in the way of you reaching your goals, identify what skills and strengths you have to overcome these barriers, while also learning new skills and ways of thinking. During this process, I am committed to creating a respectful space where you will feel heard, acknowledged, supported and understood. I work with clients of all ages, backgrounds and identities and strive to create a safe and inclusive space for all.

I specialize in supporting people struggling with anxiety, chronic stress, and trauma/ PTSD.
Do you feel you could be the poster child for high-functioning anxiety? You’re always in go-go-go mode and struggle to slow down or relax. And maybe you even find yourself getting sick every time you finally take vacation or allow yourself to slow down. Chances are you’ve been stuck in chronic fight or flight mode for a while now. You may have even had health professionals tell you this, but you just don’t know how to get out of it. And you’ve probably noticed your stress and anxiety showing up as not-so-fun physical symptoms (sleep or digestive issues anyone?). Anxiety affects our thoughts, but it wreaks havoc on our body too!

You might be caught in a loop of overthinking and anxiety that won’t quiet down. You try your best, but it never feels like enough. Relationships leave you hurt or confused, and somewhere along the way you lost touch with who you are i.e., your emotions, your body, and yourself. These patterns make sense. They were once how you survived and they can shift.

Having been in practice for over 13 years, I have expertise in mental health, trauma, addiction, ABI, ADHD, depression, anxiety, stress, attachment issues, emotion dysregulation, and mindfulness-based practice.
I believe therapy should be practical and actionable to help you get the best results and achieve positive lasting change as quickly as possible. As a client-centered therapist, I work collaboratively and offer an individualized approach to meet clients where they're at. My work is inspired by the science of interpersonal neurobiology, allowing me to provide education about human behaviour and neurophysiology to help clients make sense of their difficulties and see their challenges from a normalizing view. Many clients find this information to be helpful, hopeful, and empowering, as it gives us a roadmap for resolving their issues.
