I am queer, neurodivergent and a parent. I have 14 years of clinical experience in psychiatric, addictions, relational and childhood trauma and community work. My first language is English. I work to help people integrate their thoughts, emotions, somatic experiences and stories of empowerment so they can make sense of the world during these difficult times. I have worked with issues such as Depression, Stress Management, CPTSD, Anxiety, ADHD, Autism, Gender Dysphoria, Eating Disorders, Addictions, BPD and PTSD. I believe people are more than their diagnosis. Psychiatry must be deconstructed for us to find our true potential.

I want to take a moment to introduce myself as an experienced art therapist and a professional member of the Canadian Art Therapy Association, dedicated to supporting you or your children in restoring their well-being and psychological growth. I have witnessed the transformative power of artistic expression in therapy, and I approach my work with attentive listening, deep respect, and empathy.

In a world that often moves too fast, unprocessed grief, trauma, or overwhelming emotions can leave us feeling stuck and misunderstood. I work with individuals navigating mood disorders, anxiety, trauma, and complex life transitions—those who have faced losses, both recent and long past, that may still feel all too vivid. My practice is rooted in the understanding that healing isn’t about forgetting or ignoring but about acknowledging and working through these experiences with compassion and support. With a specialty in mental health, PTSD, and trauma, I use a person-centered, trauma-informed approach.

Accepting New Clients. The feeling of being insecure and unmotivated when everyone around you seems to have everything figured out about their life, can be discouraging and frustrating. At times, it is like no matter how much you try nothing is good enough. It doesn’t take long for you to feel insecure about what you’re doing and doubting yourself. The way you communicate is an important factor. This not only towards yourself, it also includes the way you talk to your partner, family and friends. The words you use influence your thoughts, behaviours and body sensations.

Drama therapy can be for everyone! There is no need to feel like you have to be an "actor" in order to benefit! Drama therapy just uses dramatic processes to access your inner life in a different way! As with any therapy, we move at your pace, and I utilize relational, cognitive models too. As a therapist that practices therapeutic play, I follow a child-centered play therapy model, that provides a safe environment for children to explore and work through any presenting issues, the opportunity to develop their autonomy in a healthy way, as well as being able to process any grief, trauma or big feelings through the medium of play.

I believe that counselling is a collaboration, and that the stories we all create as we go through life can be explored, challenged and enriched in the therapeutic space. As we uncover the elements of your story together, we’ll get curious about what’s been hindering as well as supporting you—all while finding a path forward that keeps your core values at the center of our practice.

Are you feeling professionally stuck or unhappy? Being unhappy at work can negatively impact so much more than work. It can affect your mental health, confidence, relationships, and more. I work with adults experiencing work dissatisfaction, disengagement, burnout or who know change is in order but have no idea what to do or where to start.
