Taking the step to go to counselling can be both nerve-wracking and exciting. If you’re seeking to understand some of your patterning, move through conflict, improve your quality of life, or process difficult emotions, my goal is to walk alongside you to help you heal and improve your quality of life.
I provide individual and couples counselling to youth and adults. I warmly welcome clients of all genders, sexual orientations, relationship structures, and cultural and religious backgrounds.

Approach Description: My approach to counselling is eclectic, incorporating a unique blend of complementary strategies from Emotion Focused Therapy, Somatic Experiencing, Narrative Therapy, The Gottman Method, Clinical Hypnotherapy, Focusing, mindfulness, and breathwork. As I work to maintain my own health and wellbeing, I have become keenly aware of the importance of integrating mind, body, and soul. When learning is embodied, life can begin to shift and change. My studies have led me to be interested in yoga, nutrition, Ayurveda, and the like, in order to further support my clients and myself in the pursuit of well-being.

My belief is that through holding space for clients to explore patterns, beliefs, and choices without judgement, that healing can be accommodated. Shifts in perspective often come with discomfort and I hope to create an environment of safety and trust to ease the growth work. Whatever you may be struggling with or wanting to explore, my aim is to create a welcoming and nurturing environment for your self-discovery. My goal is to meet you where you are at, to understand where you want you to go, and to venture with you through this to that.
The journey inward may be lonely at times, and I aspire for you to feel seen, heard, and accompanied in this empowering pursuit.
