My approach is non-pathologizing and trauma-informed. Instead of asking “What is wrong with you?”, I ask “What happened to you?” and “What strengths have helped you make it this far?”

Together, we learn the language of your inner world so you can relate to yourself with more compassion, clarity, and choice.

I have had the privilege of working with people from many different backgrounds, including Indigenous communities from First Nations, Métis, and Inuit contexts. I hold deep respect for the impact of colonialism, intergenerational trauma, and community strength.

I support youth, adults, and older adults living with PTSD and trauma, anxiety, depression, grief, identity questions, and major life transitions.

I also work with people who simply feel that something needs to change without yet having the words for it.

My role is to help you move beyond just coping, toward living in a way that feels more aligned, meaningful, and true to your own reality.

I draw on a range of evidence-based approaches, including EMDR, EMDR 2.0, CBT, CPT, Prolonged Exposure Therapy, Prolonged Grief Disorder Therapy, DBT, Interpersonal and Social Rhythm Therapy, Emotionally Focused Individual Therapy, mindfulness-based approaches, and Internal Family Systems-informed work.

I also integrate somatic and body-based practices, alongside influences from yoga and my lifelong Tae Kwon Do practice, to gently reconnect mind and body in a way that feels grounded and respectful.

Rather than fitting you into a method, sessions are tailored collaboratively so the work reflects your needs, culture, values, and goals.

I make room for creativity and play through basketball, gardening, painting, reading, and writing poetry. I am also currently working on my first psychology non-fiction book, God Update.

Staying current with neuroscience, psychology, philosophy, and questions of meaning is an important part of my life. I am especially drawn to perspectives, like Viktor Frankl’s, that honour the search for purpose even in suffering.

All of this shapes how I sit with you: as a grounded, curious, and compassionate companion who takes your story seriously and trusts in your capacity to grow.
