Reaching out to a therapist can be intimidating, but you have already taken the first step by doing this search! Take a deep breath and give me a call to see how I can help. Evening and weekend appointments are available to accommodate your schedule. Life is too short to settle for mediocre relationships, or endure emotional pain indefinitely. I want to help you make the changes you may have been avoiding as some things are tough to face alone. I recognize the courage it takes to acknowledge that daily life is a struggle, and to be strong enough to ask for help.

The primary focus of my practice is helping emergency responders and anyone who feels disconnected from themselves, others, and the world around them. Whether this is due to trauma, anxiety, depression, or life challenges, I use a holistic, integrated approach that is tailored to each client. Along with talk therapies, I am trained in EMDR, Internal Family Systems, and Forest Therapy. I am also certified to administer Direct Neurofeedback. My priority is to create a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental space for you to gain awareness and understanding of yourself and life experiences.

New clients welcome! Is worrying getting in the way of your life? Are you having trouble relaxing or falling asleep? Do you feel like you must always be doing something? Are you feeling restless, irritable, unfocused and indecisive? Do you feel flawed or worried about how you appear to others? Do you turn to coping mechanisms like food or alcohol that only seem to make things worse? It’s normal to be stressed occasionally, but now, more than ever, people are feeling chronically overwhelmed, burdened, and lost. If you feel like you are endlessly striving but getting nowhere, I understand and I am here to help.

New clients welcome! Evening appointments available. Does life seem a little heavy right now? Do you have trouble with motivation, sleep, concentration, and mood? Do feel anxious or easily irritated? We all feel down from time to time but feelings like these can be signs of deeper issues. If you or someone you love is struggling with an addiction, disordered eating, anxiety, depression, or dealing with a difficult situation, then you are not alone. While you may have good strategies for getting through the tough times, talking about it with a trained mental health professional can really help.

You may have wondered at times, "Will I ever recover?", and I am excited to let you know that change is always within your reach. It takes a lot of courage and vulnerability to begin a journey towards healing, and yet every human is entitled to a life that reflects their core values and truest self. I believe that self-exploration is key to any change process, and accessing therapy is a brilliant and brave way to ignite this and to welcome yourself into an exciting new chapter. My practice is rooted in Anti Oppressive, trauma-informed care, with an emphasis on identifying and utilizing your strengths as agents of change.

My approach to psychotherapy is deeply rooted in feminist and structural analyses that contextualize individual "problems" in our social environments. My therapeutic orientation is comprised of an eclectic mix of theoretical models that guide my work, including emotion focused therapy, psychodynamic therapy, and somatic therapy. While I don't practice exclusively from one perspective, I believe that it is my role to be constantly assessing whether or not the work we are doing appears to be helping you to achieve your therapeutic goals. I offer psychological services under the supervision of Dr. Leigh Karos, C. Psych.

My areas of interest range from helping the LGBTQIA+ population deal with self-acceptance and self-esteem to helping adolescents and adults grapple with life transitions, complex grief, anxiety and depression. I also enjoy working with couples and families within these areas, particularly in a multicultural context. Therapy is both a science and an art, and you and I can weave the tapestry of your healing experience through techniques that allure both the intellectual and subconscious minds. By integrating these two aspects of your sense of being, I can help you tap into your wiser self.

I have worked extensively with individual adults and couples for almost twenty years, helping them find hope, insight, and real change. Now I specialize in two specific but broad areas. First, clients who suspect or recognize that their struggles may be rooted in unresolved events, traumas, or beliefs inherited from their past. This manifests as past memories continuing to resurface, being easily irritated, overwhelming shame, fears, insecurities, and unhealthy or codependent relationships. My second area of focus is helping couples going through marital distress find healing through Focus on the Family Hope Restored intensives.

We all carry stories about our experiences. I maintain that the way we view others, the world and ourselves is deeply rooted in these experiences and in our interactions with others. It is in the calm noticing and re-telling in a therapeutic space that we can foster the awareness and insight that are central to change and growth. I hold a safe, warm and accepting space for you to begin these explorations.
