At the heart of my practice is an integrative approach that draws from a variety of evidence-based modalities, including EMDR, parts work, cognitive therapies, somatic techniques, and expressive arts. As a curious and attuned therapist, I approach our sessions with an open heart and mind. I value the importance of humour and realness, believing that these elements can be powerful tools for healing.

Holistic Perspective

I view healing from a framework of holistic well-being, recognizing that wellness encompasses mind, body, and spirit. Rather than focusing exclusively on problems in isolation from the broader context of your unique life experiences, I aim to offer support in a way that honors your individuality and strengths, while fostering a deeper understanding and connection. I collaborate with clients to uncover their inner strengths and motivations, clarify their values, set realistic goals, and develop actionable strategies for positive change. Together, we’ll create a safe space for you to explore your inner world and find the path that resonates with you, supporting your journey toward healing and growth.

Trauma-Informed Care

My approach is grounded in trauma-informed care, which means I prioritize your safety, empowerment, and choice throughout our work together. I understand that trauma can impact your life in profound ways, and I am committed to providing a supportive environment where you can feel secure and validated as you navigate your healing process. Trauma informed care often involves building skills to ground and cultivate safety, connecting to internal and external resources, and processing traumatic experiences.

Social Justice Lens

My work is deeply rooted in a strong social justice lens. I strive to understand the broader contexts of your life, acknowledging the systems and structures that impact your well-being, particularly how overlapping identities, including race, culture, class, gender, sexuality, and more, can shape experiences. I understand the significance of recognizing my own privileges and biases both personally and professionally. I am dedicated to continuous professional development in Anti-Racism and Anti-Oppressive principles and I participate in regular clinical supervision to ensure I am following best practices while supporting individuals from diverse backgrounds.
