Who I am
I identify as a cis, white woman with life-long lived experience as an ally, having grown up around LGBT2SQ+ and neurodivergent family members. From this, I could see the stigma, judgement, and exclusion that can exist within our society. This inspired me to become a therapist, and I have dedicated my life to making meaningful changes and supporting diverse populations.
Who I see
13+ for individual sessions.
Client Areas of Interest
I have a therapeutic focus in supporting adolescents and adults navigating identity exploration (gender identity, sexuality, ADHD, Autism, etc.), life transitions, trauma, anxiety, and grief. I also have experience working with hormonal issues and chronic illness, along with eating differences and body image concerns.
My Therapeutic Approach
I approach my work with you in a way that aims to foster genuine connection. I support the exploration of your intersectional identities and journey towards more self-acceptance and self-compassion while also challenging systems-level stigma and oppression.
Eclectic Modalities Used
I draw on an eclectic number of modalities, e.g., narrative, ACT, CFT, EFT, CBT, IFS-informed, and somatic-based, to best fit your unique needs. I feel that therapy should be tailored to your goals and experiences.

My Therapeutic Approach
As a holistic life coach, I aim to see you as a whole person as we walk together toward your unique goals and explore any roadblocks that might come up along the way. We focus on where you are at, where you want to be, and how you can get there.
I have found that my skills in supporting marginalized communities in my previous role as a Community Mental Health and Addictions Counsellor have provided me with additional knowledge about providing Trauma-informed support.
I believe that having a safe space to feel heard and seen is essential during your healing journey.

My Therapeutic Approach
I approach counselling with an identity-affirming, culturally responsive, equity-focused, and sex-positive lens.

While I use evidence-based practices to inform my work, e.g., narrative, IFS, CBT-informed, DBT-informed, and somatic-based, I also shared many lived experiences with those I work with.
