When living with complex illness it is important to understand the dynamic relationship between physical and mental health. Counselling can support people managing a new diagnosis, navigating life transitions, or struggling in relationships. It provides time and space to prioritize personal wellbeing with compassionate guidance. I am trained in EMDR- a trauma therapy- and specialize in supporting people with anxiety, depression, trauma, eating disorders, neurodiversity, and complex health concerns. I use skills from DBT and nervous system regulation to help you cope with stress and self-advocate effectively.
I support the individual changes you choose to help you live with more ease in your day-to-day. I use an inclusive, harm reduction, health at every size approach to provide care for folks facing the convergence of illness/pain, disability, trauma, substance use, identity & relationships. I use a compassion-focused, DBT-informed approach alongside EMDR.
I understand through story & care deeply about personal expression. I believe in the power of relationships to help transform suffering & that finding the therapist that works with you is really important. As a person who lives with chronic illness, I encourage clients to identify and prioritize their needs, preferences, and values in their health journey.

I work with people grappling with disability, illness and/or trauma. During the first session I work to understand the impact client's daily life and what they miss most. Together we determine the best way to address the challenges. Clients find that they feel less anxious and overwhelmed, better able to advocate for their needs, and that they experience more calm and connection.
