Are you feeling lonely or stuck, unsure of your direction or purpose in life? Maybe you’re grappling with intense emotions like fear, sadness, anxiety, or grief, and despite trying various approaches, nothing seems to bring relief. It’s common to feel overwhelmed and hopeless when old patterns persist and nothing seems to work. These challenges can make you feel deeply isolated, and it’s natural to feel like there’s no way forward. Staying present in the moment can be difficult, and sometimes it might seem that the only way to cope is by numbing your feelings or trying to escape. Remember, these feelings are valid.
I’m dedicated in helping people to reconnect with and balance their nervous system. I believe in taking the time to nurture and soothe the nervous system before jumping into deeper wounds. Having someone by your side while navigating through challenging or uncomfortable places can be truly transforming.
As a Registered Therapeutic Counsellor and a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner student, my goal is to offer a compassionate and secure space for you to explore your feelings, sensations, and emotions. I’m here to support you with patience and encouragement, respecting your pace and helping you find ways to shift.

While we often think we are coming to therapy to feel better, we actually need to get better at feeling. I draw from neuroscience, attachment theory, nervous system regulation, mindfulness, parts work, psychodrama, transpersonal and Somatic Experiencing all through a trauma-informed based lens
