I use a holistic, client-centred, evidence-based approach reflective of my clients’ needs and goals. My neurodivergent-affirming and culturally sensitive approach throughout the therapeutic journey integrates a wide range of therapeutic methods, including Interpersonal Therapy, Relational Therapy, Internal Family Systems, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Play Therapy, ADHD-adapted Psychotherapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy. I also incorporate Gestalt and Narrative Approaches into my work to help clients explore their lived experiences and challenges.
I am deeply committed to creating a safe, trusting, and non-judgmental therapeutic space that is reflective of you. I achieve this by striving to understand your lived experiences from your unique perspective. This commitment to understanding is the cornerstone of our therapeutic relationship, and it is what allows us to progress on this healing journey together. As we continue, our bond will strengthen, fostering the safety and understanding you need to be vulnerable. Let’s move forward, generating hope as we work towards your desired goals.

I offer a client-centred approach to therapy built on empathy, compassion and unconditional positive regard. Since each individual is unique, I draw from an eclectic mix of interventions and modalities based on an individual’s needs and therapeutic goals. These include Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Somatic Experiencing, Mindfulness, etc. I am passionate about the body’s ability to hold emotional pain and I navigate therapy through a biopsychosocial lens, helping clients identify their mind-body connection through somatic techniques.
I am passionate about helping late diagnosed ADHD adults, adults with Childhood Trauma, PTSD, anxiety, and relationship issues.

As a graduate student in the practicum phase of my Master’s in Counselling Psychology
program, under clinical supervision, I come with a host of skills from nearly 18 years of
experience as an educator and vice-principal, working in public service. As a
neurodivergent, queer human, I am no stranger to this world and the systems that have
the ability to welcome and claim us, or deny and alienate us. Through Cyclical
Psychodynamic Therapy (where patterns become clearer, as does a way forward),
Somatic Therapy (that informs your relationship with your body’s intelligence), and
Compassion Focused Therapy (to help orient your mind toward greater awareness and
healing), so much is possible in our work together.
If your hope is to ease stress or burnout, explore practices that help uncover patterns in
your life and the thoughts and feelings connected to them, or reinvigorate resilience
processes for a more connective way forward—consider booking a free 15-minute call
and let’s see what’s possible.

Are you navigating life’s challenges with resilience, whether as a parent, a professional, or an individual seeking balance and understanding? Perhaps your child is embracing neurodivergence, with their unique strengths and ways of experiencing the world, and you’re looking for support in nurturing their growth. Or maybe you’re an adult finding your way through self-doubt, anxiety, burnout, or unresolved childhood experiences. If you’re looking for guidance to unlock greater understanding, build confidence, and move forward, I’m here to help.
With over 15 years of experience working with children in the classroom and families navigating behavioural, cognitive, and emotional challenges, along with two years working in the field of clinical psychology, I bring a well-rounded perspective to supporting both children and adults. I’ve helped children and their families embrace the unique strengths of neurodivergence and have worked with adults facing anxiety, depression, burnout, and trauma. My approach is warm and collaborative, drawing from a person-centered approach, CBT, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, Schema Therapy, mindfulness practices, and emotional regulation strategies. Together, we’ll create a plan tailored to your unique needs.

As a therapist, wife, co-parent, mom and step-mom, I understand that sometimes life is
complicated, and being able to work with a therapist who can help you identify your
strengths, aspirations and goals while advocating for you can help things feel more
manageable.
Your therapeutic journey is a
space created entirely for you – a place to explore your thoughts, feelings and
experiences without judgment. Therapy can help work toward greater self-
understanding, helping you uncover patterns, build resilience and enhance the tools you
already have within you. Therapy is not only about navigating challenges but also about
fostering deeper happiness, balance and success in every area of your life.
I offer a strengths-based approach to therapy and apply a diverse range of theoretical
orientations and methods tailored to meet the unique needs of an individual. These
include Internal Family Systems - IFS (parts work), Narrative Therapy, Cognitive
Behavioural Therapy, Mindfulness, Motivational Interviewing, Emotional Freedom
Technique (EFT), Attachment Therapy, etc.
