As a psychotherapist, I support clients experiencing emotional difficulty by making the connection between past experiences and current circumstances, allowing space for positive change. I work from a trauma-informed, strength-based lens to foster a safe, non-judgmental environment for healing.
Using a client-centred approach, I combine many therapeutic techniques and modalities to meet the unique needs of each client. I am an EMDR trained clinician and am thrilled to offer this modality to those I work with.
I have been passionate about mental health and well-being for as long as I can remember. I feel very privileged to walk alongside clients as they navigate their world and learn more about themselves. I welcome the opportunity to work with you to foster resilience, growth, and lasting change.

I work with clients who are feeling "stuck" and are noticing something in their life is no longer working they way they'd like it to. We will work together on establishing a treatment plan, while recognizing many of our difficulties stem from trauma and our early years. Looking back will help us make space to move forward.

I often use techniques from many different modalities in my practice, however EMDR has become my "go to". In your first session, we will explore what has brought you to therapy and how aspects from other modalities such as CBT, DBT, and SFT can support the trauma processing work.
