I am a Registered Psychotherapist and have been treating clients both individually and in groups since 2007. My primary focus has been working with complex populations with both mental health and substance use concerns. I have extensive training and experience in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) Skills Training, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), treating adult survivors of trauma / PTSD, Core Mindfulness Skills as well as in a variety of other best practice, evidence based treatments.

Reaching out for support can be one of the most emotion-infused tasks and can seem intimidating or overwhelming; I believe that you are the expert in your life journey and I am here to guide you on your unique recovery path. As a practitioner I hold dual identities within settler-Canadian and Indigenous-Ojibwe roots. I also identify within Two-Spirit & Queer communities. I am here to meet you where you are at and take whichever direction you would like to take within your healing.

I know that everyday can be a challenge, especially when you feel like you are all alone. I know your struggles are real and I want you to know that you are NOT alone. As your Psychotherapist, we will explore what brought you to therapy and then decide on the most appropriate ways to help you make progress. With CBT, we'll look at how your thoughts affect your emotions and experience. During treatment, I'll help you learn how to push back against those negative thoughts and explore ways on how to change your feelings for the better. Call me, let's get started!

If you’re feeling overwhelmed by addiction, you might find yourself battling not just the physical cravings but also the feelings of isolation, shame, and anxiety that so often accompany this struggle. I understand how these challenges can seep into every aspect of your life, affecting your relationships, your work, and how you view yourself. As someone specializing in withdrawal management and addiction treatment, I have dedicated my practice to helping individuals like you reclaim control and rediscover hope. Together, we can uncover and address the underlying issues, breaking the cycle that has held you back.

Do you ever feel really strong feelings like anger, fear, or shame that make you do things you regret? Like maybe you end up doing stuff that hurts you or others, and it's hard to stop? It can make you feel like you've lost control of yourself and your life. Imagine looking back and seeing that things have changed for the good. Picture being able to tell when shame starts creeping in and having the tools to stop it from taking over. You can feel safe knowing that those feelings don't define you. It may still hurt at times, but it won't spiral into a crisis. You'll learn to navigate your days to align with the life you want.

Reaching out for help takes courage. Instead of asking, "What's wrong with you?" I prefer to ask, "What happened and how can I empower you to heal?" I am dedicated to providing person-centered and trauma-informed therapies rooted in science. I firmly believe that you are the expert in your life and experiences, and it is my responsibility to support and guide you towards healing. I will collaborate with you to develop personalized and comprehensive treatments that respect and address your needs and circumstances. Together, we can attain your short- and long-term goals and help you feel empowered and deserving of healing.
