I am passionate about supporting individuals in their healing journey. I strive to create a trusting relationship that encourages resiliency and change. I utilize a strengths-based, anti-oppressive lens leading with compassion, understanding, and empathy. I am a firm believer in supported decision making, utilizing neuro-affirming strategies, and allowing individuals to be the expert in their own lives.
I work with children aged 4+, adolescents, adults, couples, & families.
I have training in Acclerated Resolution Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Gottman’s Couples Counselling, and ABA Therapy/Positive Practices. I may also draw from aspects of CBT, DBT, Narrative Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, or Play Therapy.
