About

A safe, accepting, and judgement-free space for individuals to explore change, healing, and growth — through a client-centered, strengths-based approach. Virtual across Canada.

Biography

With 17 years of experience as a nurse, I've spent my career walking alongside people through some of their most vulnerable moments — trauma, illness, crisis, loss, and healing. That experience shapes everything about how I now practice as a psychotherapist: with deep respect for the body, a steady presence in hard moments and a strengths-based approach that centres what's already working within you, not just what feels broken. I bring both the rigour of my clinical training in counselling psychology and nearly two decades of real-world experience caring for people to how I show up as a therapist — offering a nuanced, empathetic and judgement-free space where you're seen as capable, resilient and whole.
