Being a teenager is hard. Between school, parents, peers, and social media, it feels like everyone is judging you about everything. Maybe you find yourself saying “I’m not smart enough”, “I’m not pretty enough”, or “Something is wrong with me!” If you feel overwhelmed by expectations and wish you didn’t care what anyone thinks about you, you are not alone! I’ve been there, felt that, and now I help teens, like you, learn to let go of expectations and discover who they are and who they want to be. If you’re sick of trying to be liked by everyone else, and ready to like yourself so you can be yourself, then you are in the right place!

I am a queer femme of colour who is working to support collective healing and liberation by offering individual counselling. My work is centred in an intersectional feminist approach to therapy drawing from somatics, narrative and evidence based practices. My approach is to support individuals to build upon existing strengths and daily practices to ensure that they have the tools to live their life in alignment with their own values and desires. I see my role as creating a container to support a person in developing deeper accountability and consent in their relationship with themselves and with others.

Relationships can be challenging and rewarding. Learning about yourself and noticing how you view the world impacts the choices you make in all areas of your life. Determining your values, personality traits, attachment style, communication patterns and unique neural pathways provides understanding self and self in relation to others. Life changes, while exciting can create uncertainty, more so when not in your plan. Navigating different life stages: adolescence to adulting, family challenges, marriage, grief, and retirement each bring differing and sometimes conflicting responses. This work can be done with individuals or couples.

We can begin by discovering what matters most to you. Even in profound loss, or trauma, it is possible to come to a place of growth and change. Meaningful change can emerge in relation to how we feel toward ourselves, our physical being, and in our interactions with others. The journey starts with creative discovery and self-compassion.
