I feel incredibly grateful to be able to sit with clients and support them in some of the hardest times of their lives. I bring a compassionate, calm and accepting energy to every session, ensuring that you feel safe and heard. I always welcome the difficult conversations, as I know this is where healing begins. My style of therapy is informal and client-centered, responsive to each person’s unique needs. Our problems of today are often rooted in our hurt from yesterday. Being able to explore our past from a trauma-informed, attachment-focused lens helps us find meaning, connection and hope for the future.
Areas I am passionate about include: childhood trauma; emotional dysregulation, adult children of alcoholics (ACoA) and adult children of emotionally immature parents; relationship issues (attachment, co-dependency, communication), pregnancy/postpartum and the transition to parenthood, grief and Indigenous healing and reconciliation.
I am able to offer virtual therapy to youth ages 12 + and adults who reside in either Alberta, Ontario, Northwest Territories or Nunavut. I am an approved provider of the First Nations and Inuit Non-Insured Health Benefit (NIHB) for Alberta residents, and can bill most extended health insurance companies.
