Overwhelmed or burned out, struggling to focus or decompress? It’s hard to be at our best through times of stress and personal hardship. With over 10 years of clinical practice, I will help you establish lasting wellness so you can stay on top of what really matters – your interests, responsibilities, and relationships. Let’s make sense of your concerns, find a clear way forward, and get you back on track.

My background is in Occupational Therapy and Psychology, as well as extreme sports coaching. Occupational Therapy is a “function-focused” discipline that targets real-world success with mind-body principles and practical strategies. I also lead a clinical team specialized in mental health and function and mentor developing therapists.

Years in practice: 8
Offers:  Remote Therapy

In my practice, I support clients who are experiencing anxiety, depression, ​grief, stress, trauma, ADHD, and exhaustion. Life can be hard sometimes and my clients often tell me that they have so much going on in their lives that they’re struggling to manage their emotions. Many of my clients identify themselves as being helpers, healers, caregivers, entrepreneurs, advocates, and empaths and are having a hard time finding balance in their lives. If you’re tired of managing alone and want to find some peace or clarity in your life, or simply want to feel better emotionally, you’ve come to the right place.

I am honored to help those desiring meaningful change in their lives – personal mental, emotional and behavioural change is some of the most difficult work one can do and that is why most avoid it.
