I have always enjoyed connecting, interacting, and understanding others. I also like to see the greatness and positives in people and things and I always hope and try to help others see themselves and live their lives that way.

I am especially passionate about support teens and young adults as they navigate their hardships, identities, relationships, and life changes. As I recognize the uniqueness of everyone and their lives, and the importance of meeting others where they are, I value integrative work where I can draw from a variety of approaches such as CBT, ACT, mindfulness-based therapies, PCT, and narrative therapy!

I want clients to know that I always strive to create a comfortable, empathetic, and non-judgmental space where their concerns and feelings can be safely and collaboratively explored. I also hope to relay that I am stimultaneously gentle and engaged; I will walk beside you, reflect with you, and support your goals at your pace.

Empathy, patience, respectful curiousity, and authenticity. I recognize that a competent counsellor does not just simply listen; they listen and engage with intention and without judgement.

Though I would like to say I appreciate all, I value client's who are curious, genuine, and committed to their progress. However a client shows up is also appreciated as every form of engagement is meaningful.

Outside of simply supporting others, I love having the privilege of observing the apparent or subtle shifts when someone feels truly seen, understood, and hopeful. It is an honour to be able to facilitate a space where people can feel comfortable in being vulnerable and explore who they want to become.
