Are you feeling overwhelmed, stuck, ready for change? I am here to provide a safe and comfortable space where we can explore your concerns together. Whether you are struggling with self-acceptance, depression, anxiety, grief, trauma, relationship difficulties, or otherwise, these concerns may be negatively impacting your quality of life. Therapy can help. Through our work together, we will strive to reduce the symptoms causing you distress and do our best to create positive change to lead to a life that is more rewarding, fulfilling, and valuable for you.
To reach your counselling goals, we will work together to build skills and positive coping mechanisms. I operate primarily from a trauma-informed, client-centred approach, with emphasis on mindfulness and self-compassion. However, I am open to being flexible and finding a therapeutic framework that best suits your individual needs.
Whether you are looking to process issues from your past, worries for the future, or navigate concerns found in the present, I am here with you. It takes courage to make this first step towards therapy. Looking forward to hearing from you so we can see if we would be a good fit.

I largely help clients navigate anxiety associated with life transitions (e.g. shift in education/career, relationship). I also specialize in trauma processing, whether it be related to your family of origin, or more recent adult trauma. I practice from a client-entered perspective, where I walk alongside you and we explore collaboratively. You are not alone, and I strive to make you feel welcome.
