Welcome — You’re in the Right Place
I’m a Registered Social Worker and trauma-informed therapist with over six years of experience supporting individuals (16+) through life’s challenges. My role is to walk alongside you as you navigate struggles such as:
- ADHD and attention-related challenges
- Anxiety and depression
- Trauma and burnout
- Life transitions
- Relationship or interpersonal difficulties
- Low self-esteem and body image concerns
Together, we’ll explore the different parts of who you are, process your experiences with compassion, and help you build a life that feels aligned with your values.
My Professional Journey
I hold both a Master’s and Bachelor’s degree in Social Work from Lakehead University and am registered with the Ontario College of Social Workers and Social Service Workers.
My background includes clinical experience in addictions support, trauma services, and psychotherapy (both in-person and online). This has given me the privilege of working with people from diverse backgrounds, each with their own story to tell.
Specialized Training
To ensure I can support clients with the highest level of care, I’ve completed additional training, including:
- Certified ADHD Clinical Services Provider
- Applied Suicide Intervention Skills Training (ASIST)
This allows me to provide evidence-based care for ADHD, mood challenges, and crisis support when it’s needed most.
What We Can Explore Together
Alongside mental health challenges such as anxiety, depression, and trauma, I bring a special focus on spiritual concerns in therapy.
This may mean:
- Processing painful or confusing experiences within a faith community
- Exploring questions of meaning, identity, and purpose
- Navigating shifts in belief systems
- Unpacking difficult or harmful messages related to sexuality, self-worth, or identity
Wherever your story takes you, you’ll find a non-judgmental and compassionate space to explore it here.
How I Approach Therapy
My style is warm, relational, and client-centered. I believe therapy works best when it feels like a safe relationship built on trust and respect.
I draw from a variety of evidence-based approaches, including:
- Internal Family Systems (IFS)
- Cognitive and behavioural therapies
- Narrative approaches
Each session is tailored to your unique needs, ensuring therapy feels supportive, empowering, and aligned with your goals.
My Philosophy
I believe every person has the capacity for healing, growth, and deeper self-understanding. In our work together, we won’t only focus on symptoms — we’ll gently explore the parts of you that carry your lived experiences and the meaning behind them.
This process opens space for clarity, self-trust, and compassion, helping you move forward with greater confidence and purpose.
It’s my honour to walk beside you on this journey as you explore your story and build a future that feels true to who you are.
