About

As a therapist, my first priority is to create a space where you feel safe, seen, and truly heard. I bring genuine compassion, curiosity, and respect into every session—offering a therapeutic relationship grounded in trust, collaboration, and care. My clients often describe our work together as a place where they can breathe deeply, reflect honestly, and begin to heal without fear of judgment.

With over 20 years of experience in the mental health and human services field, I’ve had the privilege of supporting individuals and families through a wide range of challenges—from trauma and emotional regulation to identity development and relational healing. My professional journey includes extensive work in community-based settings, youth mental health, and front-line crisis support. These experiences have deeply shaped my approach: practical, compassionate, and attuned to real-life complexity.

As a clinician in Child and Youth Mental Health (CYMH), I specialize in working with young people and adults impacted by early adversity, emotional overwhelm, and relational stress. I approach therapy through a trauma-informed, person-centered lens. This means I understand how your past may shape your present, and I hold space for your experiences while honoring your strengths. Whether you're working through anxiety, loss, identity shifts, or the impact of trauma, we’ll move at a pace that respects your nervous system, your goals, and your story.

I draw from a range of therapeutic modalities to tailor our work to your unique needs—including CBT, DBT, EMDR, and other evidence-based approaches. I’m committed to ongoing professional development, clinical supervision, and self-reflection to ensure I’m offering the highest standard of care.

In our first session, we’ll explore what brings you here and begin shaping a path forward—one that centers your values, honors your resilience, and fosters real, sustainable change. You don’t have to do this alone. I’m here to support you every step of the way.
