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.

We all want peace and happiness on the inside and joy, fulfillment, and love on the outside. Difficult past experiences that have not been fully processed or daunting life changes can affect our ability to walk through life with happiness, clarity, and purpose.

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.
