There are many times when life becomes more than we are able to handle. Sometimes life breaks us and leaves us feeling lost and alone. Other moments we feel like we are stumbling along in the dark, searching for meaning and direction, or just wishing we felt less pain. Finding a way back can be easier if another person shares some of the journey. A genuine and safe therapeutic relationship can be the starting place for rediscovering inner resources, developing new coping skills, and rekindling hope.

Many of our emotional wounds are formed in our early relationships with others, which is why the attunement, unconditional acceptance, and healthy boundaries modeled within the therapeutic relationship can be so healing later in life. I take genuine pleasure in providing people with these “missed experiences,” because the world is a brighter place when we're seen, understood and SAFE. With your permission, I'll challenge you, and together we'll work to restore your connection to your core Self. Balancing the mental, emotional, and physical aspects of who you are can feel overwhelming at times, but I'm here to also make it kinda fun!

Many of my clients come to therapy feeling weighed down by trauma, depression, anxiety, or challenges in relationships. Some find themselves easily triggered, disconnected, or stuck in painful patterns, while others long for stability, meaning, or a stronger sense of self. Whether individuals, couples, or families, my clients are often searching not only for relief but also for a way to feel more authentic, compassionate with themselves, and engaged in life. Their goal is to live more fully—grounded, resilient, and free to connect with what matters. Clients often describe me as a steady, grounding presence helping in this work.

Many of my clients feel stuck — in their thoughts, relationships, or sense of direction. They’re searching for clarity, peace, and a way to feel more like themselves again. Whether it’s stress, identity, love, purpose, or symptoms that fit into any diagnosis, I help people slow down, build awareness, and reconnect with what truly matters. Together, we work toward balance, growth, and a deeper sense of meaning in everyday life.

Humor, genuine compassion and empathy are necessary for healing - especially the humor part! Which is why they are benchmarks of my clinical practice. Combined together, the healing force created is a 'game changer' in people's lives. My approach to psychotherapy is person centered (congrats, you are unique! Your therapy should be too), grounded in attachment theory (relationships are our friend! Don't argue...everyone needs a friend) and developmental psychology (we all go through life changes, change suucks, but it's unavoidable). All this guides our path to wellness. Heads up - standard credential speech ahead...

I am a registered provisional psychologist who supports adults seeking meaningful healing, self-understanding, and emotional resilience. My work is grounded in a humanistic-existential and feminist approach, honouring each person's capacity for growth, authenticity, and connection. With warmth and empathy, I support clients in exploring their inner world, tending to past experiences that continue to shape the present, and building a more flexible and self-compassionate way of being. Sessions may include increasing awareness of inner experiences, processing trauma at a safe pace, and strengthening skills for values-aligned living.

My approach is grounded and genuine, offering a space that invites honesty, curiosity, and connection to what you’re carrying, whether you’re learning to deepen connection with yourself or integrating an altered-state experience.

Has something happened to you and you don't know who you are anymore? That the person you were before was someone else and you are looking for help to discover who you are now?

Let me help you through this journey.

I work with anxiety, addiction (substance use), and chronic pain. Sometimes the little things feel overwhelming—you might find yourself overreacting, overthinking, or unable to let go of stress. Maybe you’re tired of numbing pain or avoiding problems because it’s just not helping anymore. You might want to break unhealthy patterns and learn to manage emotions so they don’t control you. If you’re ready to address the roots of addiction and the stress and anxiety often tied to chronic pain, and work toward lasting change, we could be a good fit.
