I’m a registered social worker with additional training in counselling, offering a supportive, practical, and compassionate space for people navigating life’s challenges. I have a particular interest in working with trauma, motherhood, neurodiversity, hoarding and family therapy, and I understand that everyone’s experiences and needs are unique. My approach is flexible and collaborative. I draw from an eclectic mix of therapeutic styles so that our work together is tailored to you, rather than fitting you into a single model. Whether you’re looking to process difficult experiences, build coping skills, or create meaningful change, I aim to meet you where you are and support you in moving toward a life that feels more manageable and aligned with your values.

There are so many challenges in life and each person is a unique individual. My work is tailored to fit the needs of my clients, although my understanding of clients is from a psychoanalytic/depth perspective. I work with individuals and couples who are experiencing everyday challenges as well as those who have significant difficulties.
