Counselling is the confidential and collaborative effort between counsellor and client to develop acceptance, possible solutions, and clarity about issues causing emotional turmoil. It offers support, growth, and new perspectives in challenging times. I work to create a non-judgmental and compassionate space for you to set transformative life goals. Together, we will make a plan for moving forward in a good way and towards renewed horizons.

Inspired by mindfulness, embodiment, Indigenous (Métis), and land-based healing, I strive to provide holistic and culturally safe services. I view you as the expert on your life and healing journey, while offering respectful, compassionate, strengths-based, and trauma-informed support on your path to balance.

As we meet, guided by the Métis way of kaa-wiichitoyaahk—we take care of each other—I am here to support you. I look forward to meeting you!

My social work background enhances counselling services. I am trained to address societal and systemic factors, make referrals to community resources, advocate for social justice, and provide holistic support. Social workers understand mental health as interconnected with physical, spiritual, sexual, and social well-being.

I recognize that counselling is not one size fits all, which is why I utilize an integrative approach. Integrative therapy combines different therapeutic approaches to create a personalized and comprehensive treatment plan for individuals based on their unique needs. My counselling practice draws from various styles of therapy, including ART, CBT, DBT, EFT, MI, and Family Systems Models.
