I utilize an anti-oppressive, relational, person-centered and trauma-informed lens in my therapeutic work. My specialities include supporting folks who have experienced trauma, including systemic trauma, as well as people experiencing anxiety and depression. I seek to create a non-judgmental space to explore the various identities and vulnerabilities shaping your experiences. The therapeutic process is a sacred collaboration and I feel deeply honored to accompany clients along in their journey toward healing and embodiment.
