I focus on working with intense emotions, insecure attachment, acute and developmental trauma, nervous system healing, and neurodiversity. Part of therapy with me is practicing being in safe, secure relationship where your feedback and needs are valued & integrated into our work. I primarily work through a body-based somatic lens, with additional training in the worlds of sex therapy, relationships, and altered state integration. I have seen how connecting with and resourcing the body to process stuck emotions in a loving container leads to healing and relief.
I see clients individually or in dyads, and I also offer professional consultation to other counsellors - I work well with folks trying to unmask, LGBTQ+ people, disabled folks, BPD-ers, sex workers, and those in non-normative relationships. My dyad work, whether you are romantic or platonic partners, focuses on honesty, vulnerability, connection and repair.
Reach out here or via my website to schedule a free 30-minute video or phone consultation. I will ask what's bringing you to counselling at this time, and what you're hoping to get out of our work. I will also explain how I work, and answer any questions you might have. If you find my energy and style aligns with your needs, we will go from there.

My work is rooted in bottom-up approaches to healing: somatics, with an attachment and relational focus. I will attune to your nervous system and help weave regulation into our work, using polyvagal theory. My approach to folks wanting to work on their relationship(s) is rooted in safety, regulation, accountability for harm, and deepening our understanding of the Other, alongside our Self.
