Practice Information
I work alongside my clients to help explore their stories and reframe life’s challenges in a way that aligns with their values, strengths, and desired outcomes. I believe that although therapy can be hard, there is space for levity in the process. Lighter moments are a gentle reminder we are not alone.
I am a Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC) with a M.A. in Counselling Psychology. I have a background in education as both a teacher and school counsellor, and a passion for supporting youth in areas such as anxiety, peer relationships, family dynamics, self-harm, and trauma. Through this work, I’ve gained a deep understanding of how our early experiences shape who we are and how we relate to others. This informs my approach in supporting adults as they navigate emotional challenges, life transitions, and relationships. I believe understanding our values, beliefs, and cultural influences heals wounds and lays the groundwork for meaningful growth.
As a straight-passing, cisgendered white woman, I recognize the privileges I hold and believe it is my responsibility to approach therapy with humility and openness. I strive to create a space that is inclusive and respectful of diverse identities and perspectives. I use a trauma-informed, integrative approach which I adapt to the unique needs of my clients. I draw primarily from strengths-based modalities including Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), and Narrative Therapy.
In session, we might explore inner conflicts, process unresolved trauma, clarify core values, and turn our attention to the body to help soften and release any physical tension. When life happens, I’m here to offer support and provide tools to manage. When there is space and capacity to explore issues deeper, I’ll help turn us towards difficult emotions, welcoming them with compassion and curiosity.
I look forward to meeting you where you are, and helping you find a path forward that feels true to you.
