Cultural values, family history and rigid expectations about our future can shape the stories we have about ourselves. These stories can begin to feel heavy and leave us feeling “not good enough.” I work with individuals who are struggling with anxiety, imposter syndrome, self-worth and relationships. Together we work to understand your relationship with yourself, and the impacts of your environment on your wellbeing. I support in developing healthy boundaries and coping strategies. I use both exploratory methods of Internal Family Systems and Narrative Therapy as well as skills based approaches like Cognitive Behavioural Therapy.

I work with teens and adults struggling with anxiety, low self-esteem, and overwhelming emotions. Many of my clients feel stuck in their thoughts, question whether they are "good" enough, or experience guilt and shame when they react in ways they don't want to in anger. I also work with parents of children diagnosed with ASD or ADHD who want a space to make sense of their child's diagnosis and behaviours, question their own role as a parent, and are looking to develop practical strategies to connect with their child.
