Description

I view our challenges from a holistic lens, and the importance of attending to the body-mind connection. I retain compassion and curiosity for everyone and understand peoples’ struggles through significant life events and social-cultural narratives.

I am primarily guided by psychodynamic and Internal Family Systems (IFS) approaches. I understand that no approach fits all, and I draw from a range of modalities to meet you where you’re at. These modalities include Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), client-centered and somatic approaches.

Summary

Beyond labels and expectations, discover you are enough and that every moment holds potential. 

We are here with you to challenge your self-doubt, face the pain you carry and encourage you to find a connection.

Our inclusive and non-pathologizing approach addresses the impact of your experiences on your body and behaviour. We connect current struggles to past experiences that are in the way of living with ease.  We believe change begins with self-awareness.  Our trauma-informed approach goes beyond intellectual understanding to address deep-seated issues.
