As humans, we have all needed other people to share life’s journey with me in all its hope and hurt, awe and agony, wonder and wisdom. If you are in a space of curiosity, feeling like you would benefit from support to explore and deepen your personal and/or professional challenges, change deeply held patterns that aren't working for you, or work through frustrations, anxieties, fears, or grief, I am here to walk alongside you in that journey. I value a practical approach to addressing concerns, and will co-create strategies with you, drawing from your personal wisdom and experience combined with researched best practices.
Part of our first discussion will be exploring where and how you would like to engage in this work. I am available for virtual appointments. I am also happy to see clients for Wellness Walk Therapy or community/home-based appointments if those feel best for you (see www.suuntawellness.ca for more details). I also offer EMDR both virtually and in person.
The human experience can be a heavy one and one of the biggest parts of this work you are embarking on is doing it with someone you feel good about. Please contact me for a free, 15 minute consultation to get to know one another, discuss your hopes and goals and determine if I might be a fitting support for to help you explore them more fully.

I've had the privilege of walking alongside people with a variety of stories. Among these, I have noticed that people experiencing challenges related to a religious background or deconstructing spirituality have found their way to work with me. In addition to this, I am passionate about helping people thrive in their vocation and explore themes of fulfillment & burnout in the workplace.
