APPROACH
Collaborative + Inclusive
I respect the uniqueness of each person regardless of gender, race, age, physical ability or sexual orientation. I embrace diversity, difference, and the various aspects that make you who you are. I treat you with the compassion and encouragement you deserve and gently offer alternative perspectives for you to consider as we co-create change, healing and growth.
Trauma-Informed + Relational
Difficult moments mark our lives in impactful ways by shaping our relationships, identity, beliefs, and outlook. Attending to these formative experiences is at the core of our journey together.
We are connected within a circle of relationships and social environments. Learning about the people, communities, and places that are meaningful to you helps me help you in a holistic way.

BEYOND THERAPY
Creative + Spiritual
A lover of art and creative at heart as a singer/songwriter,
Our emotions are spiritual experiences that connect us all. I enjoy organic living, hiking, collecting rocks, travelling, and just about anything I can explore.
Social Advocacy
Passionate about social justice and equity issues.
I provide consulting services and workshops to promote mental health, healthy relationships, and self-discovery, especially within racialized communities.
