Hi, I'm

Accepting New Clients
Associate Therapist
Placement Term:

Welcome Message

I specialize in helping adults and adolescents (16+) experiencing painful life transitions (e.g., young adulthood, menopause, trauma, separation, grief); challenging family dynamics, parenting; school/work difficulties; depression, anxiety, co-dependency/boundaries; questions around neurodivergence, gender, sexuality; and spiritual growth. My training is integrative - meaning I draw across different therapeutic modalities. I provide a safe space to explore your feelings and practice important adjustments that will serve you better. My goal is to help you move through your life with greater clarity, self-acceptance and freedom.

I spent years in neuroscience research studying how the brain influences mood and behaviour. This background informs my client work– especially around trauma and aging. However, as a therapist, I am committed to an overall holistic approach that considers the interplay of biology, culture, spirituality, and social circumstances to strong mental health. My practice is anti-racist, queer- and trans-friendly.

If you’re ready to talk, connect with me for a complimentary 20-minute consultation to help us determine if we are a good fit.
