My philosophy for counselling is rooted in finding connection in communities, safety from within, and discovery of what makes you feel passionate about a life worth living. I have always been a strong proponent for human development and diversity, and I'm curious by nature. Presently I work as an addictions counsellor, am an advocate for ending homelessness, and work with organizations to provide safety to our most vulnerable groups. Ive been to therapy, I struggled with addiction in the past... we all have had an adversity to overcome, and I can relate.

I value the relationships that I have with my clients and aim to create a safe space where people feel that they can be themselves without fear of judgment. I look forward to hearing and connecting with my clients and their stories. I also have a passion for working with the IBPOC community, moms through pregnancy and postpartum, and youth to support and empower them.

I am dedicated to helping you address your concerns and issues and focus on what’s important to you. We do this on your terms and at your pace. Through an effective, non-judgemental, therapeutic relationship, I help you examine the different areas of your life and help you make practical and meaningful changes. Whether you are dealing with depression, anxiety, trauma, substance use issues or other concerns, I'll work with you to make the changes you want to see. I am also experienced in providing specialized support to the LGBTQ+ community as well as gender affirming care.

I am passionate in working with adolescents and adults through a variety of different issues, including: anxiety, depression, self-esteem, trauma, life transitions, addiction, and psychosis. I am grounded in a culturally-sensitive, trauma-informed perspective and believe in each individual's innate desire to heal and move towards their life goals. I acknowledge the unique experiences that each person brings to the counselling process, and find it a privilege to be included in your journey.

My philosophy of counselling is strongly influenced by my Christian worldview and my motivation to help others. I draw primarily from Person-centered, Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and existential therapeutic approaches. In my practice I work with youth and adults to treat depression, anxiety, past trauma, relationship conflict, career change, and other life transitions. An overarching theme of my practice is working alongside clients to help them gain a greater sense of meaning and purpose in their lives.

I work with people struggling with anxiety, depression, stress, relationship issues, trauma, low self-esteem and life transitions. This can include any problematic emotions or problems that have become barriers to achieving happiness and well-being. My intention is to provide a safe and open space where you can be witnessed for who you are and your experiences.

Are you feeling anxious? Having trouble sleeping? Experiencing pained body & sadness that wont go away? Complex trauma can lead you to develop body hyper-vigilance. This is where the body be continually tensed, as though the body is “braced” for potential threats. Continual patterns of holding onto tension can manifest as chronic pain/fatigue, digestive issues, hormonal imbalances, PTSD-anxiety, insomnia, sexual and/or immune system dysfunction to name a few. The intention is enhance the body's own capacity to heal by freeing the body, breath & energy flow (behavior patterns) through the practice of self awareness & self-compassion.

I understand that seeking counselling can be a courageous step, and I want you to know that you're not alone on this path. I believe in the power of a collaborative and client-centered approach. I see our therapeutic relationship as a partnership, where your unique needs and aspirations are at the forefront of our work together.

We all have our own unique realties and it is my passion to assist you in uncovering unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviours, while working through uncomfortable emotions to allow for a more enjoyable and fulfilling life. ​Whether you or a loved one are dealing with or affected by addiction, looking to explore a past hurt, navigating a loss, or are in a transitional period of your life - you’ve come to the right place. ​

It is within your reach to create the meaningful and fulfilling life that you have always deserved, one that reflects your values, goals, and authentic self. You may feel hopeless, alone, lost, stuck, or constrained by patterns that you can’t seem to break. Neuroscience shows that your past does not need to define your future, and within you lies the innate capacity to heal from trauma. I work with clients to create deep and lasting healing, rather than just symptom management. Ultimately, my goal is to guide you to become your own therapist. Trauma can make it feel unbearable to be in your body and mind.

I've also been told I am good at helping with accountability as well. I'd love to work with you to create goals to improve your life, and then build a roadmap to achieve them. "Empathy and unconditional positive regard" (no judgement) is my motto.

I believe that we were not meant to carry things alone, and that healing and growth look different for everyone. Together, we can make space to process what it is that needs your attention, so you can feel more aligned with the version of you that you've been disconnected from.
