About…

So many people feel emotionally exhausted, overwhelmed, disconnected, and/or stuck in painful patterns and relational cycles that just keep repeating. They struggle with anxiety, depression, trauma, self-worth, trust, communication, intimacy, or feeling misunderstood. Together, we explore the roots beneath these patterns with compassion and curiosity, to build greater self-awareness, emotional safety, and a stronger sense of connection within themselves and their relationships, while working through the hurts embedded along the way.

As a third-generation counsellor, my approach is integrative, emotion-focused and highly relational. With a deep understanding of trauma, attachment, and the mind-body connection, I support individuals and couples alike in moving beyond the surface, beyond the survival patterns and towards healing, meaning, and growth.

Life is hard and you shouldn’t have to deal with it alone. I find believe that healing happens in connection: to ourselves and to one another. In working with me you’ll find a warm and nonjudgmental space where your unique journey is supported – one where you can find yourself (and eachother) again. Thanks for being here and I look forward to connecting!
