I am a queer, Indigenous therapist and registered social worker offering online therapy that is queer affirming, anti-racist, sex positive, body neutral, feminist, and trauma informed. I embrace a warm sense of humour that can make therapy less intimidating. I integrate an awareness of mental health, addictions, and harm reduction strategies through lived experience into my practice. I work with youth and adults addressing a range of concerns including depression, anxiety, substance use disorders, and intergenerational trauma. I am experienced in providing affirming support to those who are exploring gender and/or sexuality.
Clients have described me as: warm, caring, empathic, supportive, funny and curious. I am able to hold space for client needs. My approach is informed by formal education and training, informal education, and lived experience as an Indigenous, queer, fat woman.
All appointments are virtual and I offer direct billing with a number of insurance providers. I'm happy to provide a free consultation; you can reach out by email or book online by visiting the linked website. Please note that emails sent through this profile are directed to a general office email and not to me directly.
