As a trauma therapist, I specialize in working with anxiety, trauma, attachment concerns, and OCD, using approaches such as EMDR and somatic therapies that support both mind and body in healing.
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.

Many of my clients feel disconnected from their bodies, whether this be because of pain (chronic or sexual), burnout, trauma, or emotional numbing.
I blend empathy, directness and humour to help you achieve your goals. I take a "bottom-up" approach to psychotherapy. This means that I start with the body. I work to foster a collaborative space, so that we may explore your needs together. Safety comes first. Once we feel safe enough in therapy, we can accomplish so much.

If you're ready to work at the level where trauma actually lives — in the body and the nervous system — I can help.
In 12 years of practice, these tools have helped people heal from trauma, anxiety, perinatal loss, chronic pain, and the kind of deep-seated patterns that keep repeating no matter what you try. I work with adults navigating anxiety, trauma, perinatal and perimenopause challenges, chronic illness, and grief.

Do you feel like you’ve gotten too far away from who you really are, or who you want to be? Together, we will bring awareness to where you have been, where you are now, and where you want to go. While insight is essential, true transformation comes not just from being aware of how the past has influenced the present, but by processing through the mental, physical, emotional, spiritual, and neurological remnants of those previous experiences and embodying new ways of being. Therapy can help you gain the clarity, confidence, and courage you need to change your life.

When suffering takes over, it can feel like you’re clinging to the edge of a cliff with nothing beneath you but fear and exhaustion. In these moments, the first step we’ll take is to help you find your footing again. Once you’re on steady ground, we can look back together: How did you get there? What was it like to hold on for so long? And how do you want to move forward in a way that feels sustainable and meaningful? Our work together focuses both on the struggles you’re facing today and the patterns that give them shape.
