My Approach
I lead with compassion and curiosity, striving to foster a space that is nurturing and non-judgmental. I am interested in getting to know you, understanding your experiences, your perspectives, and your hopes and dreams. I firmly believe in your innate capacity to overcome your challenges, and I also recognize the therapeutic value of humour—it's a reminder of our shared humanity.
Ultimately, my aim is for you to feel not only secure and supported in our sessions, but also empowered and validated in your quest to navigate life's hurdles with courage and newfound skills.
I operate from a perspective that is sex positive and queer positive.
Outside of sessions, I embrace the roles of parent and partner. I enjoy spending time with my loved ones, working out, and being outside in nature hiking, biking, and walking my dog.

What To Expect
From our first moment of contact you can expect a therapeutic experience that blends professional expertise with a down-to-earth, relatable approach.
The first session is often more structured, as I am asking questions to learn about you, your life, your family and your goals for therapy. I hold you as the expert of your own life, therefore we collaborate to determine what it is you want to focus on in therapy.
It’s not uncommon to feel burdened by societal norms and expectations. Within our sessions, I create a nurturing environment to examine how systems of oppression impact your individual journey.
In my work I integrate several therapeutic models and my training background primarily consists of Dialogic Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Emotion-Focused Therapy, and Internal Family Systems (IFS).
If you haven’t gone to therapy before, and are interested in learning a bit more about what to expect, let’s chat. Our first 15-minute conversation is free of cost or obligation.
Who I Work With
As a Registered Psychotherapist with a Masters in Couple and Family Therapy, I work with individuals, couples, and families navigating the often complex ups and downs of life. I specialize in navigating the beautiful world of relationships. Whether you're stuck in difficult patterns, struggling to communicate clearly and kindly, grappling with complex life transitions, or striving to rebuild relationships that have been damaged, I’m here to try and gently guide you through it all.
Whether you are a blended family striving to work together more peacefully, a couple new to non-monogamy and wishing to approach that with intention and care, an adult in midlife just starting to understand their sexuality, a new parent adjusting to life with baby or a parent doing their best to raise a child with special or complex needs, I tailor my approach to the unique dynamics at play.
I approach my work with a commitment to embrace diverse identities and experiences. My services are supportive and inclusive of cultural, gender, political, religious and sexual diversity.
Together, we’ll work to re-write old patterns, play into your natural strengths, and cultivate deep connection—because everyone deserves support and a fresh start.
