If you long to share your story and be joined in it, and be witnessed in ways that let you know you’re heard, in a counselling experience with interactional dialogue, then let’s have that kind of conversation. Counselling is about the whole you, because problems do not exist alone, but always within the greater context of your unique life. I work alongside you to know your own voice and values, because when you have clarity about what you want, it can become easier to create and live by those intentions (and harder not to!).
As a dedicated mental health professional, I am passionate about fostering growth, healing and resilience, and compassionately meeting you where you're at without judgement. I have 15 years of experience in assessment and case management, and my best skill is listening for what's really going on and helping to figure that out with you.
I offer an attentive, purposeful, collaborative session. So bring all that you've been up against and we'll be full of curiosity about what has been getting in the way of the kind of day you actually want to have! Anti-oppressive trauma-informed LGBTQIA2S+ BIPOC trans affirming. In-person or virtual in Calgary, and virtual throughout AB & ON. Sliding scale!
