I hold the belief that we all carry the innate capacity to heal and grow. My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and grounded in creating a non-judgmental space where I can walk alongside individuals as they explore their inner world, uncover their strengths, and move forward on their path of growth and healing. As a yoga instructor and mental health therapist I pay close attention to the connection between mind and body, recognizing how trauma, stress, and emotional pain can be held in the body and how healing often takes an holistic approach.

New and returning clients are welcome at my new practice, Bracken & Birch Counselling.
Sometimes the patterns that once helped us cope—like people-pleasing, avoiding conflict, or putting others’ needs first—begin to leave us feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected from ourselves. Therapy can be a space to gently explore these patterns, understand where they come from, and begin creating healthier ways of relating to yourself and others.
I offer individual counselling, EMDR therapy, and couples counselling, tailoring each session to your needs, goals, and pace as we work toward healing, resilience, and meaningful growth.

I offer counselling services for children (ages 10+), youth, and adults.
Does sitting face-to-face talking about things intimidate you? Me too. That's why I provide a non-traditional type of therapy where we can talk over a coffee, doing a puzzle together, going for a walk, or creating art (yes, even for adults!). When you feel less “in the spotlight” it creates space for safety, comfortability, vulnerability, and in return - healing. I have experience in supporting those navigating anxiety, emotional dysregulation, complex trauma, body image concerns, low self-esteem, relationship challenges, and anything else life throws your way.
