Sometimes you just need to talk with someone who gets it. Change is hard, but it is possible, and it all starts with you, and your unique strengths, goals and insight. In our work together, my role will be to witness, reflect back and help bring greater awareness to aspects of your experience that may be in need of gentle attention or healing. At times, I may bring evidence-based therapeutic techniques into our work, tailored to both your individual style and needs. Together, we will work to collaboratively to bring to life the changes you identify as being most important to you, right now.

I often work with individuals who have anxiety, mood concerns; chronic pain or ; personality disorders; emotional regulation difficulties (e.g. anger or shame/guilt); trauma and C-PTSD; relationship issues; substance use and/or behavioural concerns. I work closely with LGBTQ+ folks (frequently non-binary and trans folks) and neurodivergent individuals.

Starting or returning to therapy can be scary or overwhelming, but know that I am here for you every step of the process. I am and have been a client myself, so I've been there. There is hope to be found on the other side of pain. Experience what it is like to have an open space that is just yours, to share and feel supported. Reach out today.
