Do you have a child that struggles to understand their own emotions? Do they feel stuck in a moment or feeling that they can’t move past? Has this stopped them from relating to and finding connection with the people in your life? Maybe your child has tried counselling before but found that talking alone didn’t bring the healing or relief they needed. The holistic approach of music therapy can help to overcome emotional pain, disconnect, and numbness, and can increase a sense of purpose in the world. My unique approach blends talk therapy with body-based methods of somatic and music therapy to support the body-mind connection.

I am committed to standing beside individuals, couples, children and families to help them to live the lives they want to live, and to be the people they want to be.
Sometimes problems feel so big it seems almost like that's all there is in your life. My job is to help you reclaim your life from those problems, to be able to make the choices YOU want to make about your life, rather than feeling like you have to accept the choices it feels like your problems are making for you.
I want to help you live the life YOU want to see for yourself - to live according to what matters to YOU. YOUR values and beliefs, YOUR chosen purposes in life, YOUR dreams.

Accepting new clients - Are you or your child struggling and not knowing the path forward? Experiencing challenges is normal, but can be overwhelming. You do not have to do it alone! Often, having someone truly listen and assist us in unpacking our difficulties is what is needed to heal and move forward in the way we want to live. I believe healing happens best in a space where you feel valued, understood, and empowered with zero judgement. My approach is based on a few key aspects: relationships matter, a non-judgemental environment, a holistic and client-centred approach, cultural safety, and narrative/trauma-informed care.

Children have insight into who they are and who they want to become.
Children are introspective, they have valuable insight and ideas around their strengths, challenges and goals. Children can be collaborative partners in the counselling journey. Encouraging children to use their voice and insight empowers and inspires them for growth and change. I have worked with children aged 3-19 on various issues including abuse, neglect, trauma, family reunification, grief and loss, separation and divorce, self-harm, anxiety, depression, challenging behaviours, screen time, self esteem, self confidence and identity. Each child is unique and deserves a collaboratively established personalized counselling plan.

I primarily work with children, youth, young adults and families.
My goal is to connect people to healing through using an attachment lens and play therapy techniques. Through play we are able to process our experience and heal from traumas. Play therapy can be used with people of all ages! I believe relationships are the foundation to wellness. I believe healing happens in relationship; having a safe, secure and kind place to land is important for all people, especially when you struggling.
