Hi! I work with people who feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or like they’ve been quietly carrying a lot on their own for a long time. Many are navigating anxiety, life transitions, relationship challenges, or the emotional impact of chronic illness and body changes.

My approach is grounded in person-centered therapy and focuses on presence, deep listening, and genuine curiosity. I aim to create a space where people feel understood and supported as they explore their experiences and begin making sense of what they’re carrying.

As someone who is neurodivergent, I appreciate the many ways people think, process, and move through the world, including the impact that masking can have on our sense of self and wellbeing.

If you’re looking for a warm and thoughtful space where you can show up just as you are, without needing to have the right words or everything figured out, we may be a good fit.

Outside of counselling, I’m a mom of two teenagers, a bit of a bookworm, and happiest when I’m curled up with a cozy blanket and our dog, Sonny.
