Practice Information

Do you sometimes feel like it is difficult to get through the day? Do you often feel low and like your progress is somehow blocked? Are you at a point in your life where it seems like nothing is changing? I understand that struggling can make us feel hopeless, unmotivated, and frustrated. My human experience allows me to identify with the challenges you are facing, because I face them too. It is my calling to help others at a human level on this journey of healing, and through counselling, you can feel empowered to reclaim your confidence and take back control of your life. You will not be seen as someone who is needing to be fixed or who is broken, but as a whole being who is currently struggling. Let me help you deal with the challenges and transitions that show up along the way, and lead you to a more empowered and authentic life. I believe that everyone has the capacity to be resilient and heal from their past. With the right therapist, you will feel a level of safety in your sessions and will be offered effective tools that will set you up to do the therapy work and succeed.

I work with people who are struggling in a number of areas including depression and anxiety, life transitions and grief, self-esteem issues, coping skills, co-dependence and people pleasing, relationship problems, and psychedelic integration. In-person, in-nature, video, and phone sessions are all available depending on your comfort level and what best fits your needs. Sessions are also available during weekdays and evenings. Each session is tailored to fit you and your experience, and will allow you to feel in control of your own healing. I aim to pull from several different models of therapy that will create a safe, yet challenging environment for your inner growth. Some of the models that I use in sessions are compassionate inquiry, inner child work, narrative therapy, solution-focused therapy, cognitive behavioural therapy, and dialectical behaviour therapy. In our sessions, you can expect to move at your own pace while being gently encouraged to reflect on the areas of your life where you would like to see growth. Over time, we will work together and break down some of the blocks that are keeping you from the results you want to see in your day to day life.
