It’s great to see you here!

Most of us are familiar with the classic image of therapy: sitting on a couch in a dimly lit room, across from a stranger with a notepad, telling them all of your secrets. It can feel uncomfortable and scary! But so can feeling lost and out of control of your life. Sometimes, for reasons we know and for reasons we don’t, our emotions run the show. As society becomes more comfortable with conversations around mental health, it can be hard to know where to start with your own. My aim is to relieve this by creating a space of warmth, humour, and compassion, to help you explore all parts of yourself. In our work together we can connect the dots as to where certain thoughts and behaviors come from. Alongside this deeper understanding, I offer tools, exercises, and reframes for you to use outside of the therapy room to enact sustainable change. I have experience working with all ages, and most commonly young adults, in person and online.

“For me, forgiveness and compassion are always linked: how do we hold people accountable for wrongdoing and yet at the same time remain in touch with their humanity enough to believe in their capacity to be transformed?”
