Drawing from evidence-based approaches such as emotion-focused and mindfulness-based therapies, I support clients in untangling patterns, connecting with deeper emotions, and building new ways of responding to life’s challenges. My approach is trauma-informed, valuing safety, collaboration, and your sense of agency throughout the process. I check in often to ensure our work feels meaningful and effective.

To me there is no greater privilege than supporting and empowering someone to feel worthy, resilient in the face of life’s challenges, and ultimately hopeful for what their future holds. I believe that each individual is the expert on their own life, and possesses the potential to achieve profound personal growth given the right support and relational environment.

I have been a practicing psychotherapist for 25 years, as well as a yoga instructor and a mindfulness teacher. I received my B.A. from Cornell University and my Master of Social Work from Carleton University. I am passionate about my work as a therapist and feel privileged to hear your stories.

As a therapist, I enjoy working with adolescents, adults, and couples, as they develop resilience and build strong relationships. I use a mind-body approach that combines intellectual understanding with somatic awareness to empower clients towards a deeper understanding of themselves and others.
