Therapy can be joyful, along with the relief and peace of having support in tough moments. I support people with low mood, life transitions, burnout, managing school and work, parenting, culture, sexuality, exploring neurodivergence (ADHD, Autism, AuDHD, BFRDs), and coping with the state of the world.
The heart of our work is our strong connection. We name what you are experiencing, the context and impact, and together we find hope and agency. We find the right balance of feeling things together, addressing problems together and identifying strengths and practising skills. We work together to personalize your healing path.
I work in a relational and psychodynamic way with mindfulness and somatic practices. I integrate helpful aspects of Acceptance Commitment Therapy and Dialectical Behavioural Therapy as makes sense for your goals. Whether you're seeking short-term solutions or longer-term interpersonal exploration, we work together to find the best approach for you.
I bring 25 years of community experience to my work with individuals and couples, across shelters, community health centres, higher education and hospitals. If you're curious about whether we'd be a good fit, I invite you to reach out for a no-cost consultation by phone or video chat. I'm here to support you on your journey toward healing and growth.
