I’m so glad you are here! Approaching therapy can be scary and uncomfortable. I get it! That’s why I am so passionate about creating a safe and welcoming space for all individuals. 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 anxiety. I navigate therapy through a biopsychosocial lens, helping clients identify their mind-body-environment connection through somatic techniques.

As a former teacher, I understand the hidden stressors of teaching environments and how that can contribute to burnout. I am also a mom of two busy kids and understand the complexities of navigating your career and parenting.

I would be happy to chat with you during a free consultation.
