I am passionate about helping people live their lives the best they can by helping with: lowering distress, healing from the past, regulating emotions, and piecing together a life worth living. Are emotions or thoughts running your life? If you feel defined by your past, have trauma that gets in the way, or want to change thinking patterns, behaviours, or emotional experiences, I would love to help you on your journey! I am trained in various treatments that can help with healing including DBT, CBT, EMDR, and Prolonged Exposure.

I provide therapy using a supportive and validating style balanced with a directive approach. I provide Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), DBT-informed therapy, schema processing, Prolonged Exposure (PE), and EMDR. I’m also a great fit for anyone who wishes to work with a trauma-informed Queer person of colour (POC).

Current Availability: Tuesday Evenings, Wednesday Mornings, Friday Evenings, Saturday Mornings, Saturday Afternoons, and Sundays all day.

Schema Therapy

I often use CBT and DBT approaches in my practice. This usually begins with exploring current problems you're experiencing, identifying goals, and figuring out ways to implement skills, processing, home practice, and mindfulness work to make progress. Various exposure-based approaches may be used to if relevant. For trauma and PTSD, I use EMDR and Prolonged Exposure.
