Counsellor/Therapist, CCPCPR.cand, RPC-C
Do you feel emotionally exhausted from always putting everyone else first? Perhaps you've been in a relationship with a narcissistic partner, struggle to set healthy boundaries, or feel trapped in cycles of perfectionism and people pleasing. You may look like you're coping on the outside while feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or never quite "good enough" on the inside.
You don't have to continue carrying everything alone.
I specialize in helping adults recover from narcissistic abuse, emotional abuse, burnout, perfectionism, people-pleasing, and low self-worth. Together we'll work to understand the patterns that have kept you stuck, heal the wounds beneath them, and build healthier relationships with others and with yourself.
Many of my clients are caring, capable, high-functioning people who have spent years taking care of everyone else. They struggle with guilt when saying no, overthink conversations, question themselves after being gaslighted, or feel emotionally drained from unhealthy relationships. Therapy can help you reconnect with your confidence, trust your instincts, and create lasting change.
My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and practical. I integrate evidence-based therapies while tailoring each session to your unique experiences and goals. My focus is creating a safe, supportive space where you feel understood, not judged.
I can help with:
Narcissistic abuse recovery
Emotional abuse and toxic relationships
Gaslighting and relationship trauma
Burnout and chronic stress
People-pleasing
Perfectionism
Self-esteem and confidence
Boundaries
Anxiety
Women's issues
Life transitions
Relationship concerns
I provide secure virtual counselling for adults throughout Alberta, making therapy accessible wherever you live.
For those looking to make significant progress in a shorter period, I also offer extended Therapy Intensives. These longer sessions allow us to work deeply on long standing patterns and accelerate healing in a focused, supportive environment.
Reaching out for therapy takes courage. Whether you're beginning your healing journey or have tried therapy before, I'd be honoured to support you. Together, we can help you move beyond survival and create a life that feels calmer, more confident, and more authentic.

Freedom of Expression Counselling
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, RCSW, T.S., RPT, CPT
Everyone one has their own life experiences that have been undergone in their own way. I recognize uniqueness in everyone's life and that they have a deep need witnessed and honored in those experiences. My practice is about creating space for every individual's unique feelings, circumstances, and experiences without judgement or interpretation. We collaborate to find the deepest meanings within those experiences and we use that to find direction as how we would like to close a chapter or grow next. Healing from experiences is through finding meaning in them and integrating them into ourselves thereby enabling us to live deeper and more enriching lives.

Therapy is a place for you to be uniquely you. Past experiences, expectations, and challenges in thinking, behaviours, or emotions can make authenticity challenging. During our sessions, we create a space that offers opportunity to explore your life and its nuances, coming to a greater understanding of the challenges impacting life satisfaction and techniques to enhance the way you interact with reality. Life is short, learn how to live it according to your values, intentions, and desires.
