I have always been passionate about mental health and have felt immense appreciation that I can be a small part of someone’s journey through life’s most complicated moments. I have been practicing social work for nearly ten years and during my career, I have worked with children and youth in foster care and group care, individuals managing addictions (active or recovery), and developmental disabilities. I also have experience with navigating anxiety, depression, ADHD, attachment wounds, and trauma.

From a place of openness and curiosity, I value creating a nonjudgmental, unbiased, and safe space. I use an anti-oppressive lens and believe in empowering individuals through connection and collaboration. As a trauma informed and attachment focused therapist, I aim to create a safe and welcoming environment to explore unresolved issues, past experiences, and anything else that might be showing up in your life. I believe that many issues in our daily lives are influenced by our past. In sessions, you can feel at ease by knowing that I will meet you where you are at. Trust and comfort are an integral part of the therapeutic relationship, and it is important that you feel supported in a judgement-free way. Through counselling, we can reshape patterns of behaviour, transform restricting beliefs, and improve your emotional connection to yourself and others. 

My practice is grounded in empathy and curiosity, and I look for existing strengths to help you become more connected to your true self. Self-awareness and self-compassion are integrated throughout my practice, and we can explore ways to deepen your personal connections, manage emotional challenges, and strengthen your sense of self. I use a multi-modal approach, incorporating  techniques tailored to your unique needs. This could include EMDR, EFIT, solutions-focused, mindfulness, or CBT.
