Compassion. Challenge. Joy. Working together, we will co-create a place for you to build clarity and capacity in your life. You will be invited to gain more self-compassion and acceptance. We will use dialogue, curiosity and sensation awareness to increase your knowledge yourself and your patterns. My approach is warm, honest, playful, and embodied. It is important to me that you feel change through our work together and that it supports your ongoing wellness and vitality.
My personal life informs my practice. I am a solo mom by choice. I am actively engaged in ideas around parenting children including the need to create more compassion for myself. I am a cancer survivor. I am a movement meditator and have danced for more than three decades. I am bisexual and trans-allied.
I offer clinical supervision to RP(qualifying)s, RPs and social workers. I am on the faculty of the Gestalt Institute of Toronto. I worked at the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health for nearly 15 years. I have extensive experience incorporating evidence based treatment within a somatic based, Gestalt grounding.
