Whether you are dealing with past trauma or current triggers that keep you from moving forward, there are always ways to process what has happened and how we can work together towards a more fulfilling future. As an art therapist with a trauma-informed lens, I incorporate counselling, somatic awareness, movement, and play into my work, to enhance resiliency and promote healing. Issues I have worked on include intimate partner violence, self-harm, sexual abuse, and refugee, immigration and acculturation issues, as well as intergenerational trauma.

My approach to therapy is evidence-based, interactive, relational, & motivational. My belief is that the relationship between the therapist & client is what is most healing & helpful in therapy. I strive to create a comfortable & supportive atmosphere where difficult issues can be addressed. When people feel supported & understood, they are often more able to face challenges. I help clients become more aware of the obstacles which prevent them from leading more satisfying lives & improving their relationships. Sometimes that may involve exploring past experiences and/or it may involve learning new concrete coping skills.
