I believe in meeting individuals where they are at and honouring their unique experiences, through collaberating with them to foster deeper self-understanding. My approach is rooted in compassion, curiosity, and respect for each person’s journey. I have extensive experience working with families, children, youth, and individuals, addressing a range of presenting concerns, including relationship challenges, intimate partner violence, anxiety, depression, life transitions, obsessive-compulsive disorder, 2SLGBTQI+ issues, personality disorders, and neurodevelopmental conditions such as ADHD, ASD, and developmental/speech delays.
I specialize in supporting neurodivergent individuals, survivors of intimate partner violence, and 2SLGBTQI+ populations. I understand how challenging it can be to navigate life’s obstacles, and I am here to provide a safe, nurturing space where you can feel heard, valued, and empowered.
I believe that while harm often occurs through our social connections, healing can also emerge through relationships built on trust and empathy. Together, we can create a connection that supports your healing and growth. I am committed to walking alongside as you rebuild, rediscover, and reclaim your sense of self in ways that feel authentic.

I typically use narrative therapy to decenter harmful ideas produced by socially derived expectations to help clients learn about and accept their own identities. I use emotionally focused therapy for understanding relational dynamics amongst couples, families and freindships. I follow a trauma-informed approach to build safety within oneself.
