Relationships are at the heart of being human; while they are often a meaningful source of joy and connection, they can also make our lives feel uncertain, chaotic, and complicated at times. For nearly 10 years, I have supported individuals facing anxiousness and low mood, stress and burnout, life transitions, relationship challenges, and navigating difficult family dynamics. I help folks uncover a sense of clarity - to better understand their hopes, needs, and wishes in relation to themselves and others - with care, compassion, and curiosity.

Sometimes life can feel overwhelming as we try to understand who we are and how/why we react the way we do. Finding balance as we navigate the stressors and joys of life; including our relationships, education, careers, life transitions, loss, or parenting; can feel like a daunting task. Yet, when we take the time to understand and value ourselves, we often feel happier and have more energy for the relationships and responsibilities we value and carry. Everyone experiences difficulties and my goal is to provide a trauma informed, safe, welcoming, and non judgemental space where you can reflect and navigate the challenges you face.

At Old Growth Therapy I support others to reconnect with their authenticity, viewing therapy as an invaluable space to reclaim our inner ally of self-trust. I specialize in transitions and transformations which can involve anxiety, grief, stress, loss, substance use, reclaiming identity, and trauma. I value deeply all ways of being and work to maintain a space of inclusivity regardless of race, sexuality, gender, spiritual affiliation, or any other beautiful quality that makes you, you. I view you as the expert of your life, honouring that while I can guide, only you can lead.

Are you tired of repeating the same limiting patterns in your life? Does anxiety, overwhelm, and/or depression feel like a constant battle for you? Maybe you feel stuck, confused, or alone.

I draw from a range approaches depending upon your needs and preferences. Among them are cognitive behavioral therapy, interpersonal neurobiological ideas, family systems therapy, and attachment theory. It is common for clients to arrive with issues identified only to discover that there are other deeper and more fundamental issues which underlie them. I work at a pace compatible with your ability to integrate change. I am gentle and encouraging, but firm and forthright. I provide a free initial consultation so you can determine whether you feel comfortable with me. My aim is for you to feel welcome, safe and comfortably challenged.

I believe in an individualized, caring and respectful approach when working with clients to become more resilient and effective in their lives. Many people believe that the skills and motivation needed to maneuver all of life’s obstacles are automatically within all of us. But many of us learn ineffective ways of communicating, develop unhealthy patterns or find ourselves stuck with no idea of how to move forward. Having a dedicated time to examine patterns, build skills and develop a deeper understanding of ones’ strengths can help build a greater sense of wellness and clarity in our lives.

We all deserve peace, to feel connection with others, and to feel a sense of trust in ourselves and the world. Stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, depression, trauma, major life changes and family issues are among the challenges that can get in the way of us experiencing life the way we would like to. And we all have ways of coping with those stresses. But what happens when those strategies don’t seem to be working anymore? I bring a compassionate and patient approach to our work together. My approach is rooted in my sincere belief, in our ability to heal. No matter the struggle, there is always hope.

I provide a relational approach with my clients that reaches the essence of the matter and what is most essential — inspiring truth, creativity and personal direction. Guided by inquiry and intuition, I seek to discover the sources of awareness that illuminate pathways to and from the core of the self and soul. Together we uncover insights and knowledge that foster wisdom, esteem and connection to the whole.

Taking the first step to address challenges like anxiety, addiction, relationship struggles, and negative patterns can feel overwhelming—especially for those who are navigating stressful environments. From my own experience, I understand the importance of having a safe, non-judgmental space to process these issues. Our bodies, thoughts, emotions, and behaviours are powerful indicators of what’s happening beneath the surface. Together, we’ll explore how these elements connect, help you manage stress, and empower you to make meaningful changes that bring greater balance and fulfillment to your personal and professional life.

It is important to feel seen and understood. There are lifestyle choices that often don't get the support they need because of the stigma created around it. My lifestyle may mirror those needing that empathy and compassion, having been a serving member of the Canadian Armed Forces for 20 years, being Indigenous, LGBTQ and a single parent and belonging to several other communities which face stigmatization because of the way we live.

When we embrace both our intellect and our body wisdom, we have a vital, rich resource of knowledge, awareness and understanding. My practice focuses on accessing, honouring and nurturing what our bodies know, what our voices wish to say, and what sense our minds can make of the human experience.
