Healing from trauma or facing life’s challenges can feel overwhelming. But it doesn’t always have to feel so heavy - you don’t have to do it alone. I offer a warm, supportive space where you can simply be yourself. It’s not just about the issues you bring, but about the relationship we create together - one built on trust, kindness, and understanding. Together, we can explore what’s holding you back, we can make sense of your experiences, and we can find new ways to move forward. Whether you are holding onto old wounds, feeling stuck in daily life, or wanting to strengthen your connection as a couple, I am here for you.

Do you find yourself constantly pouring from an empty cup? Perhaps you’ve become an expert at anticipating everyone else’s needs while your own boundaries, and your own voice, have fallen by the wayside. Whether you’re navigating the highs and lows of a complicated love life or feeling the heavy weight of anxiety and burnout, you don’t have to carry it alone. I believe therapy should feel less like a clinical appointment and more like a collaborative journey. My approach is rooted in self-love and self-advocacy; I’m here to help you move from simply 'getting by' to truly valuing yourself.

Many of us experience the feeling of irritability, restlessness, overwhelm or anxiety. Many of us feel stuck in the stories and experiences of our past, or wonder 'why am I like this'? I believe one of the bravest things you can do is begin to understand your own story. You deserve to be truly heard and understood, and to have your story safely held. I am passionate about working with individuals who experience the complexities of chronic stress, anxiety and trauma. I gently lead with curiosity and compassion, support you in your current season of life, and offer you practical tools, skills, and self-understanding.

At the heart of my practice lies a simple truth: we are all travelers on life's journey, carrying the weight of our struggles. Despite our unique experiences, we are united by the shared threads of our humanity—pain, grief, and growth—each with the potential for a story of hope. I am passionate about supporting adults through challenges of anxiety, depression, trauma, ptsd, grief, relationship challenges, and life transitions. My work is especially close to my heart when helping those who are navigating the sometimes complex world of co-parenting, as I’ve walked this road myself.

We work with folks leaving unhealthy/toxic belief systems and support them to navigate difficult emotions, understand the past and present, and gain autonomy in their decisions so that they can live authentically and on their own terms. Many who leave, deconstruct, or change religion or belief system experience a great deal of loss, stress, anxiety, depression, and overall disorientation. What was once a trustworthy belief system is now full of doubt, supports are no longer available, relationships often suffer, and past trauma or adverse religious experiences follow you wherever you go. The resulting loneliness can be staggering.

If therapy hasn’t worked for you before, it may be because conditions like personality disorders, chronic anxiety, and emotional dysregulation require highly specialized treatment. I provide dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) delivered as it was intended. I take a client-centered approach, tailoring therapy to each individual’s unique needs and goals. As my work is rooted from an integrative approach, I use multiple evidence-based modalities including CBT, and ACT to provide flexible and individualized care. I work with adults experiencing trauma, anxiety, depression, relational issues and many other problems. Reach out today!

I work primarily with children ages four and up through play therapy. Because we cannot expect young children to sit down and discuss their problems and feelings like adults do, allowing a child to express themselves through play is very effective. This builds on the way children naturally communicate - through play! Play also creates a safe place for children to express something that they find troubling. This means that very difficult topics can be worked through in a playful or metaphorical way which is age appropriate for the child. I am Saskatoon’s first and only Certified Play Therapist.
