I am attuned and compassionate in my approach to therapy. I offer a non-judgmental presence to help you feel relaxed and clear about the obstacles you want to overcome.

Using empirical techniques adapted to your needs we will work together on practical ways to create lasting change in your life and relationships. My intention is for you to leave sessions feeling inspired to approach life from a new vantage point.

I use evidence-based techniques from Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing therapy ( EMDR) and Acceptance and Commitment therapy (ACT) to guide you in healing your nervous system, to increase mindfulness, and to make changes aligned with your values and beliefs.
I'm excited to now offer in-person sessions! Life is beautiful and can be full of challenges and stress. I specialize in helping individuals gain deeper self-understanding and to learn strategies to feel more grounded and connected with life. Trauma is a human experience that we have all faced. If left unhealed, we may feel triggered in our daily lives and feel out of alignment with ourselves. This could manifest as: anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, avoidance, and unhealthy relationship patterns that can prevent us from feeling our best. We are capable of healing, and my passion is facilitating this journey.

I am also very passionate about helping adults who struggle with trauma either from military service or family or chronic trauma.

I have post graduate training in EMDR, CBT, Narrative Therapy, Gottman Method Therapy, ACT, and Motivational Interviewing.
Sometimes life can have us feeling bogged down in the same negative patterns, feeling blocked or disconnected from our own sense of contentment, strength and joy. Often we walk the path of life, thinking we are making progress, only to find we have circled back to the same struggles. When we find ourselves in this place it can be wise to reach out for help. I see therapy as a place to uncover the roots of what is feeding our present concerns and to heal these roots in order to make positive lasting changes.

As a social worker with over ten years working within the field of mental health, it's hard to ignore the one commonality- Trauma.

With extensive training in CBT, DBT, EFT, Gottman Relationship Therapy, and Clinical Hypnotherapy, and as a certified EMDR therapist and EMDRIA approved consultant, I’d like to use the skills and insights that I’ve sharpened over the course of my career to help you break negative cycles in your life and step into deeper levels of intimacy with your partner.
As a therapist, one of my most deeply held beliefs is that each of us has the potential to live our best life. We can do this when we learn how to remain calm and collected in stressful moments, identify and detach from unhelpful thought patterns, and develop the courage to change behaviours that keep us stuck in negative cycles. Sometimes we’re able to do this on our own, and other times - especially when we feel routinely overwhelmed, frustrated, anxious, and discouraged - we need someone to walk alongside us to help us figure out how to regain control of our emotions, rekindle our hope, and navigate life’s inevitable difficulties
