I take a holistic approach to practice, considering how our mind, emotions, body and spirit come together to frame our relationship to the world. I believe mental health to be not only the removal of challenges, but the creation of an active sense of well-being. So, in sessions together, I seek to focus not only on difficulties, but to consider what could be done to increase your resilience and sense of well-being. How we define health can vary widely, and some paths I tend to take focus on gratitude, mindfulness, self-compassion and vulnerability.
I enjoy taking an adaptive approach that is flexible to focus on different aspects of your life. Coming from a narrative-feminist approach, I believe in partial expertise — that as a client and a therapist, we both have expertise, but what we know is incomplete. Only together, in collaboration, can we combine our expertise to create a full picture.
I work for DiveThru, out of an office located conveniently on Whyte Ave. You can book by through the DiveThru app, online at divethru.com, or by phone or email. I look forward to hearing from you!
