I am a certified IFS therapist and have been educated via the IFS Institute. I use Internal Family Systems therapy combined with Polyvagal theory and somatic work. Creating a strong and non-dogmatic container together is the cornerstone of my practice. I am especially skilled at attuning, and providing company in places that you may have previously felt alone. We will work towards helping parts of you that may be stuck in fight, flight, freeze, fawn, or collapse. Many of my clients are people in their 20s and 30s exploring the transitions and challenges of adulthood while reckoning with Family of Origin trauma.

Hi, everyone. Individuals, couples and poly folks tend to seek me out because I’m clear-headed, sincere and deeply hopeful. So, if you’re having feelings of anger, disconnection or overwhelming anxiety, we can find ways for you to feel lighter, easier, more certain. People processing childhood trauma and abuse, or grappling with low self-esteem, powerlessness and grief — they find relief here too. We start with what feels helpful for you — sometimes that’s having a safe sounding board; other times it’s having a co-problem solver with tools right beside you. My sense of humour is a plus, so is my endless curiosity and compassion.
