Welcome to the start of your therapeutic journey. It’s a brave thing to seek support and finding a therapist that’s a good fit can often feel daunting. From the moment we connect, your comfort and safety will be my priority on each step of your therapeutic journey. Whether you are experiencing overwhelming emotions, relationship issues, mental health challenges, life transitions, or the impact of trauma, I will offer tools and guidance to help you connect to your inner wisdom, strengths, resilience, and re-alignment with your values.

I specialize in art therapy and somatic practices which offer us a safe way to process inner experiences when words alone are limiting. Art therapy allows us to access parts of the brain where trauma is stored to help express, process, and resolve them. Somatic therapy can support the innate healing capacity of the body and offer long lasting impacts.
As part of an anti-oppressive practice, I believe in a collaborative approach that ensures your unique preferences and needs are prioritized. As a fellow traveler along on your healing journey, I will offer a space of encouragement, curiosity, and compassion. Life can be quite challenging at times, but you don’t have to navigate it alone. Come as you are!
