You’re tired of holding back. Of always being the strong one — the caretaker, the problem solver, the dependable one— while your own needs quietly wait their turn. You have ideas, depth, and potential that you know lives inside of you, but you feel scared and unsure how to make those dreams your reality. You’re self-aware, love nerding out on psychology and personal development but something still feels missing. Deep down, you know you’re meant to live your life in a way that feels more fulfilling while making a genuine impact in your world. You desire a life you feel excited to wake up to lead by purpose and won't burn you out.

Trauma can profoundly change how we relate to ourselves, others, and the world. You might feel guilty, ashamed or overwhelmed thinking of your past experiences. It’s common to find it hard to trust others and to feel anxious about the safety of the world around you. You may be questioning your identity, feeling disconnected from yourself and pleasure, or overwhelmed by emotions. Despite the challenges you encounter, you deserve to tell your story and my goal is to ensure you feel not only supported but truly understood, acknowledged, and empowered.

We enter psychotherapy for a wide variety of reasons: The death or loss of a loved one, illness, job loss, divorce, addiction, etc., but all of us seek help because we are trying to find a better way to deal with the reality we are facing. My job as a psychotherapist is to help you talk about your emotions and reactions in a safe environment, figure out where these emotions and reactions are coming from, observe whether your reactions produce the desired outcomes and, discover new ways to react, if that would produce more desirable outcomes

Therapy can be a daunting task, especially when experiencing grief. Grief can evoke feelings of anxiety, depression, hopelessness, and confusion. Grief changes us in an instant, sneaking in and building a home in facets of our lives that we least expect. Grief is not solely about death; it encompasses any loss we experience. If you feel you're not "grieving properly," find the grief journey too overwhelming, or believe that having someone accompany you on this path would be beneficial, working with me may be one way to address the internal chaos felt after a loss.

Available Evenings and Weekends. “Owning our own story can be hard but not nearly as difficult as spending our lives running from it”, Brene Brown. We’re not meant to struggle alone. I’m a trauma-informed EMDR and CBT therapist who helps people move from emotional overload and self-doubt to clarity, confidence, and connection.
Many of my clients are caregivers, professionals, or partners who feel stuck managing everyone else’s needs while neglecting their own. In our work together, we identify unhelpful thinking patterns, rebuild emotional balance, and create realistic steps toward healthier relationships and sustainable self-care.

My clients often face overwhelming emotions, feelings of neglect, isolation, and anxiety. They may feel drained and seek a secure, welcoming space to express themselves. In our sessions, we explore therapeutic methods designed to build connections and empathy, cultivate kindness and self-compassion, and create coping and personal growth strategies. Many of my clients also deal with PMDD, PME, or severe PMS, ADHD (often diagnosed later in life), and the associated anxiety, depression, and emotional dysregulation that often accompanies these conditions. I provide ADHD coaching and therapy to those who need help in this area.

I often meet people who notice they are repeating relationship patterns and behaviours, and they aren't sure why. Sometimes, you may remember how these strategies were protective and kept you safe in the past, or you may not. I support the people I work with to sense, with compassion, how powerful and ingenious these strategies are. Sometimes when we meet, you've come to a place of knowing that these same protective strategies aren't as effective as they used to be, and you're wondering why or are looking to change. We come to decide in therapy what to hold tight to and what to set aside for now.

You've had the same argument so many times you could practically recite each other's lines. Or maybe you've stopped arguing altogether, and that silence feels even worse. You're sharing a home, a bed, a life on paper, but somehow you've never felt more alone. Maybe it's not your relationship that's falling apart, it's you: the anxiety that won't quit, the grief you can't shake, the feeling that you've completely lost yourself somewhere. Whatever it is, you've been carrying it long enough. And some part of you knows it's time to get some help.
