I take a holistic, mind-body approach in my practice and work to develop an awareness of how our nervous system plays a key role in regulating our emotions and internal state. I integrate aspects of both talk and body-based interventions to best support healing.
I specialize in; anxiety, trauma, stress, burnout, relationship issues, athletic & sports performance, and emotional regulation.
I draw primarily from polyvagal-informed therapy to support emotional and nervous system regulation, helping clients build resilience and cultivate safety in their bodies. I integrate somatic practices to encourage deeper body awareness and facilitate healing, and utilize EMDR to process past trauma and rewire unhelpful patterns.

I work from a trauma-informed and strengths-based approach. I believe that you have everything you need to heal within you and lead a more authentic and meaningful life, and my work with you will help bring that out. I use a cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) lens. I believe your thoughts, emotions, and behaviours are all interconnected and each one of them impacts and affects the other.
However, I also often use other modalities in my practice based on your individual needs. Some other modalities I use are acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), Gestalt, and observed experiential integration (OEI) level 1.
Regardless of the modalities I use with you in our work together, I place a huge emphasis on getting to know you and your story.

Our biggest moments of crisis, when supported with care, consciousness, and insight, are in fact our greatest sources of personal growth and transformation. I help individuals to strengthen the resources they have within themselves, learn to navigate challenging and uncomfortable emotions and life experiences, and build resiliency to navigate through tough times. As you begin to more consciously navigate life’s ebbs and flows, I support you in moving towards a more comfortable, content and meaningful life.
