As a dedicated nurse practitioner, my practice is deeply rooted on the principles of of patient-centred care. In the dynamic field of healthcare, where each individual presents with unique experiences, challenges, and needs, I firmly believe that placing the patient at the forefront of their care journey is paramount. Patient-centred care embodies not only a philosophy but also a practice that prioritizes empathy, collaboration, and respect for the autonomy and preferences of those seeking support.

Many of my clients identify as BIPOC and/or LGBTQIA+.
I understand how difficult it can be searching for the right therapist. It's important to find the right fit because the therapeutic relationship is such an important part of counselling. For me, creating a non-judgmental space where you can express yourself openly and work towards personal growth is a priority. Through my client-centred approach, I recognize the importance of tapping into your strengths and building upon them. Counselling provides us the opportunity to explore meaning, strengths and new possibilities, and my role is to help facilitate this process.

I am happy to work with an extensive range of clients and organize my practice around providing Client-Centred Therapy grounded in empirically-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). Additionally, I have lived experience as a first responder and am passionate about addressing the unique challenges associated with fulfilling such roles. In my experience working with people over the last 10 years, I've found that often their challenges are best addressed first and foremost by being heard; this act of listening is a gift that unlocks the resources hidden within.

Being a real live hu man, I've struggled with my own mental health and work from both sides of the therapist’s desk.
Oh hi. You know, I can imagine that he steps leading you here today involved some tough times. I know how difficult it is finding help, especially when you’re feeling overwhelmed, emotional, scared. Maybe things are going pretty well and you’re looking to grow. Either way, I think we all deserve every chance to improve ourselves, find ourselves in the one life we've been given here. That’s what I’m trying to do too. The only way I know how. Through listening, awareness, connection, and growth. I do this with folks who might need someone to help them navigate anxiety, depression, relationship dynamics, and trauma.
