Life can be tricky to navigate at the best of times, and we can quickly feel as though we’re in over our heads. Sometimes we need somebody to walk alongside us, bear witness to our struggle, and offer a safe space to explore what we really need to start living the life that embodies our values. I am a person-centred psychotherapist that operates out of a trauma-informed, humanistic framework in my provision of individual counselling for adults. I am open to supporting folks who may be struggling with mental health, facing difficult life transitions, struggling in relationships, or in need of support for processing trauma or grief.

Life’s stressors can leave us feeling lost, overwhelmed, and disconnected from our true selves. You may find yourself constantly battling negative thoughts, feeling isolated from those who cannot understand your struggle, or burdened by your strife for perfectionism. You may not even remember a time when you did not feel this way. But one thing is for sure: you are ready for a change! You would like to manage life’s transitions without them overwhelming you. You want to wake up each morning with a sense of calm and purpose. Most of all, you are eager to rebuild your self-esteem and face your future with a renewed sense of hope.

Relationships can be challenging, whether with family, friends, or co-workers. The same conflicts seem to keep repeating themselves with no sense of relief or resolution. I specialize in working with relationships - with family, friends, coworkers, spouses/ partners, dating. I treat individuals looking to understand/ heal themselves in relation to self and others, and couples seeking solutions and communication skills. Imagine a life where you look forward to uplifting conversations and time spent with loved ones, rather than rehashing the same old arguments and misunderstandings day after day.
