I've been working in the mental health field for over 10 years now and know the importance of finding a counsellor you can connect with. I’m a couples counsellor who also works with individuals in a variety of topics. Many folks come to see me for my experience in the queer / 2slgbtqia+ community; which often has overlap with those who are neurodivergent, as well as exploration outside of a monogamous dynamic (ENM/poly). That said, I work with a variety of individuals in topics - just scroll down to ‘Specialities & Expertise’. My goal is to start by creating a foundation of trust and then customizing techniques to best support you.

I aim to be an unusual therapist. I harness imagination, energy, enthusiasm, poetry, and humour in my effort to understand your story and elevate your voice. Whether you are considering the past, the present, or the future, I believe that therapeutic conversations can expand the options, responses, and actions we have available to us to heal ourselves heart, mind, and spirit. It is a privilege to come alongside you and join you in this journey. I practice the art of paying attention, which means what you say to me and who you are-is extremely important. I will work hard during our time together to listen, to understand, and to help.

You're here! This step is often the hardest part! Life can be hard... I get it! The stuff that makes life tricky shapes how we see ourselves, how we see others, and how we make sense of the world. Life experiences form our core beliefs that often get in the way of living the life you desire. As an attachment-based therapist, I work hard to create a safe space where you can confront the tough stuff and begin to rewrite your story. I show up with compassion, acceptance, and humour, to dig into what is getting in the way of you living your truth.
