Nice to meet you.
Finding the right therapist can feel overwhelming. I’m a warm, trauma-informed counsellor who believes every life story is unique. I offer compassionate support and thoughtful challenge, creating a space where you feel seen, heard, and validated. Together, we’ll explore your path forward at your pace, with curiosity and care.
As a former provincial competitive gymnast and experienced gymnastics coach, I bring an appreciation for the dedication, resilience, and vulnerability that can accompany personal growth and performance. Together, we’ll explore tools for confidence, healing, growth, and meaningful change, honouring your strengths, vulnerabilities, and lived experiences along the way.


As a client centred clinician, I tailor your therapeutic experience specifically to your needs.
Using the power of sincere care and clinically reliable treatment approaches like DBT, CBT, IFS, or EMDR, I am here to partner with you through warmth and guidance as you navigate your past, present, and future.

Friend
My personal experiences have shaped my passion for mental health and understanding each person’s unique journey. This passion led me from Ontario to British Columbia to pursue a career in counselling.
With over 20 years in competitive gymnastics, including more than a decade of coaching and leading a provincial-level competitive program, I understand the pressures, joys, and challenges of competitive sport. These experiences inform my approach to counselling, where I value resilience, compassion, and creating space for every person to feel heard and understood.
