You don't have to navigate this alone.
"Healing doesn't happen because we force ourselves to change. It begins when we feel safe enough to understand ourselves with compassion."
This simple belief guides every conversation, every session and every step of the therapeutic journey.
My Therapy Dog
Meet Riot
Born in 2020, Riot is a Heeler cross with a big heart and an even bigger personality. Don’t let her name fool you—she’s the most loving, gentle companion you could hope to meet. With her intuitive nature and calming presence, Riot brings warmth, safety, and a touch of playful energy to the therapy space. Whether she’s offering a quiet nuzzle or simply lying nearby, her presence is a grounding force that helps many clients feel more at ease. Riot is here to remind us that healing doesn’t always come in words—sometimes, it comes with four paws and a wagging tail.
Areas of Focus
I work with adults, couples and families navigating a wide range of life experiences, including:
Anxiety and Chronic Stress
Relationship and Family Challenges
Self-esteem and Identity
Trauma and PTSD
Life Transitions and Grief
Depression
Persistent Pain and Chronic Illness
Emotional Regulation
Caregiver Fatigue and Burnout
Rather than focusing solely on symptoms, we explore the underlying patterns that may be contributing to your experiences and develop practical strategies that support long-term wellbeing.
Training & Therapeutic Modalities
My work draws from a variety of evidence-based approaches, allowing therapy to be tailored to your individual needs rather than limited to a single method. This integrative approach allows us to respond to your unique experiences with flexibility, compassion and care.
Depending on your goals, therapy may incorporate:
Somatic Therapy
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
Mindfulness-based approaches
Attachment-informed care
Trauma-informed practice
Root Sessions
For those looking to explore themselves more deeply, I offer Root Sessions, immersive two to four-hour individual or group experiences designed to foster reflection, connection and personal growth. These small-group sessions combine guided learning, mindfulness practices, meditation and meaningful conversation in a supportive, welcoming environment.
More than a traditional therapy group, Root Sessions create space to slow down, reconnect with your authentic self and explore the patterns and experiences that shape who you are. Whether you're seeking greater self-awareness or simply time for reflection and renewal, each session is thoughtfully designed to leave you with practical insights, renewed perspective and a deeper connection to yourself.
What You Can Expect
Therapy is a collaborative process.
Some sessions may involve exploring difficult emotions. Others may focus on building practical skills, gaining new perspectives or simply creating space to pause and reflect.
There is no expectation to have everything figured out before you begin.
My role is to walk alongside you with curiosity, compassion and respect, helping you better understand yourself while supporting meaningful growth and healing.
What Therapy Looks Like Here
Therapy is...

A conversation without judgment.

A space to slow down and breathe.

Exploring patterns with curiosity.

Working together toward meaningful change.
Therapy isn't...

Being told what to do.

Needing to have all the answers.

A place where you're expected to be "fixed."
