Therapists in T1J
Welcome! I work with people who feel stuck in the same patterns when it comes to connections and closeness. Underneath those struggles is often an attachment wound - a part of you that learned early on how to protect yourself, but now gets in the way of feeling safe. Many of my clients come to therapy wanting to move toward more secure, fulfilling relationships with themselves and the people they care about.

You’re living for the to-do list while your own needs collect dust. Feeling like the strong one everyone relies on but silently unraveling inside. Imagine taking up space in your own life. Feeling calmer, clearer, and more connected to yourself. Living with less pressure and more presence.
Together we’ll work getting some distance between you and the relentless pressure to get it all right. We’ll focus on making space for yourself and shifting out of constant go mode so you don’t lose yourself in the grind. We’ll work on building a more compassionate relationship with yourself that leaves room for being human.

*Chronic Illness/Rare Disease Therapist & Trauma/Grief Specialist* Everyone deserves safety, trust, and hope. These build the foundation for our belief in ourselves, connection with others, and help us to live a meaningful life. Stress, health diagnosis, and unexpected challenges can uproot us. When that happens it’s my privilege to create a safe, grounding connection to help you find your way back to a meaningful life. Through a combination of trauma-informed and evidence-based counselling interventions, I provide a soft place to land, where you are seen, heard, and can safely speak your truth on the road to healing.

Whether you’re having difficulties with stress, depression, a relationship, a past experience, a decision, or just want to understand yourself better, I may be able to help. I provide a safe, supportive place where we can explore your concerns and your goals. I believe that individuals are unique, and that there is no single approach that is the 'correct' one for everyone. I match my work to you and your unique style and needs. I also understand that we have a diversity of aspects - thoughts, feelings, beliefs, behaviors, relations, histories, goals - and that these cannot be meaningfully separated in therapy any more than in life.

Living with chronic illness, disability, or neurodivergence is hard. Getting through the overwhelm of everyday life feels impossible. You're starting to feel like all you think about is your condition and everything it has taken away from you - work, hobbies, sleep, relationships. Your family and friends don’t get it. They try to help and probably mean well, but sometimes the dismissive way they say things makes you feel worse. You try to hide your symptoms to seem “normal” but inside, you feel like you might break.

Starting therapy can feel intimidating—you may not know what to expect or if it will really help. Maybe you’ve heard that “talk therapy” works, but you’re unsure why. Whether it’s your first time or you’re returning, what matters most is finding a space where you feel safe, understood, and supported as you grow.
I have worked with clients on a variety of concerns: relationships, workplace stress, searching for meaning, anxiety, depression, psychiatric illness, family dysfunction, and past trauma. I act as a guide to support people to get to where they want to be, and challenge them compassionately from different perspectives.
