My approach

Therapy with me is an active, collaborative process. I won’t just sit back and nod—I’ll ask questions, offer reflections, and challenge you when needed, all while ensuring you feel supported and heard. My approach is warm, collaborative, and sometimes infused with humour, because therapy, like life, doesn’t have to be always heavy.

I integrate trauma-informed, somatic, and psychodynamic approaches, recognizing that emotions, behaviours, and relationship patterns often stem from deeper experiences. This means that beyond exploring thoughts and feelings, we’ll also pay attention to how your body holds onto experiences, and how past dynamics may be shaping your present life as well as how you relate to yourself and others. 

For some, this process includes practical tools and skills to navigate challenges, while for others, it’s about working through emotions that feel stuck or overwhelming. My work is rooted in self-awareness, nervous system regulation, and exploring the underlying beliefs that influence your day-to-day life.

 

Couples & Relationship Work

When working with couples and clients in relationships, I focus on uncovering unconscious relationship patterns, strengthening communication, deepening mutual understanding, and creating a relationship dynamic that feels both connected and spacious—where each partner feels valued, secure, and respect each other’s individuality.

 

Common counselling concerns, focuses & clients I love supporting:

  • Couples & Relationships (Monogamous/Non-Monogamous)

  • 2SLGBTQIA+ & BIPOC folks 

  • Substance Use

  • Coping Through Addictive Behaviour (ie. gambling, sex, compulsion)

  • Trauma, Sexual Assault & Abuse

  • Life transitions & Career Changes

  • Grief & Loss

  • Neurodiversity

  • Clients with Immigration/Refuge Backgrounds

  • Relational Challenges (communicating needs, setting boundaries)

  • Individuals hoping to explore mind body connection & spirituality & their sense of purpose

  • Individuals wanting to explore their relationship to themselves and their healing journey

  • Couples wanting to learn negotiating their incompatibilities with tenderness, humour, laughter and kindness
