I have a heart for people who care deeply for others, but often struggle to find space for themselves. I support everyday helpers and givers navigate anxiety, trauma, family-of-origin and attachment wounds, grief, chronic stress and burnout, insomnia, boundaries and communication, and patterns of self-forgetting and over-functioning. I invite you to listen inward with curiosity and compassion, so that you can (re)discover your needs, values, and voice.
I’m a registered psychologist with over 12 years of mental health experience, beginning my career as a registered nurse in psychiatry. Deeply passionate about trauma work (little t and big T), I am trained in EMDR and Accelerated Resolution Therapy, approaches that use eye movements to process distressing experiences and heal the nervous system.
Whether you're seeking a focused course of treatment for a particular area (e.g., anxiety, trauma, grief, stress, insomnia, etc.), or looking to incorporate therapy as a regular rhythm for mental health maintenance, I hope our time together moves you towards greater self-compassion, agency, meaning, and connection in life.

You can expect our sessions to be deeply explorative of past and present - a creative and relational process where you will discover new ways to view and make sense of your experiences, while connecting with your underlying strengths and values. I will often introduce an exercise or practice in session, something you can take with you to support your coping and self-discovery outside of session.
