I take a holistic approach to counselling and recognize the intersectional nature of people’s lives and identities. Outside of private practice, I worked in public health in an outpatient setting so I have helped support individuals of all ages, experiences, and mental health concerns. Specifically though, I love working with women, overwhelmed achievers (lawyers, educators, students, mothers, health professionals, artists, helpers, athletes, and so much more), in addition to folks who struggle with anxiety, perfectionism, grief and loss, and managing emotions (such as with ADHD and BPD).
I draw from solution-focused and trauma-informed therapies that integrate people’s values so they can live with purpose and meaning. I also have training in cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT), mindful self-compassion (MSC), accelerated resolution therapy (ART), dialectical behaviour therapy (DBT), and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT),
I consider myself "an open book" and genuinely believe in practicing what I preach. I try to bring laughter, lightness, and understanding while gently challenging old beliefs and behaviours that are no longer serving us. I believe in collaborating with people and creating authentic space for healing and growth to occur - even if it's messy at times.
