“Owning our story and loving ourselves through that process is the bravest thing that we’ll ever do”- Brene Brown
You don’t have to have it all figured out.
Life can feel be incredibly difficult to navigate alone, and it can also be hard to reach out for help. Therapy is a place where you can focus on you, pause, breathe, and untangle the confusion and heaviness of life. As your therapist, I’m there to listen and gently guide you, helping you explore who you are, what you need, and how you can move forward in a way that feels in line with your values and identity.
I offer a space where you can be your 100% authentic self without fear of judgement. You are the expert in your own life, and therapy allows you the space to get the support you need to reconnect with yourself.
My style is compassionate, collaborative and grounded in curiosity. I will work collaboratively with you to explore patterns and uncover your strengths while creating new ways of coping.
I currently work as a Recreation Therapist in an inpatient treatment facility within an Addiction and Mood Concurrent Disorders Program. My background includes experience supporting individuals with substance use challenges, eating disorders, dementia, and neurobehavioral conditions. Across these diverse clinical settings, I have developed a strong foundation in using a cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) lens to explore how thoughts, emotions, and behaviours are
deeply interconnected. My passion for supporting others in their emotional and psychological healing has naturally led me toward the path of becoming a psychotherapist. I am excited to deepen my work by integrating more formal talk therapy approaches, while continuing to draw on the experiential and strengths-based perspective that recreation therapy has given me. My goal is to bring a holistic, compassionate, and client-centered approach to psychotherapy that honours both inner experience and lived action.
I am someone who values a balanced lifestyle and social connection. Outside of work, I live an active and social lifestyle, often spending quality time with my family and friends. I have a deep love for travel and enjoy exploring new cultures, experiences, and perspectives, which I believe enrich both my personal life and professional work. Staying active is a big part of who I am. Whether I’m playing hockey or golf, watching or attending sporting events, doing yoga, or finding ways to blend mindfulness into physical activity, I’m always seeking ways to stay grounded and present. I also have a huge love for animals especially dogs. These passions not only bring me joy but also inspire how I connect with clients: with energy, openness, and a genuine appreciation for the diverse paths people walk in life.
As a former varsity hockey player, I understand the unique pressures that come with balancing academics, athletics, and personal life. The world of student athletics can be both rewarding and overwhelming—juggling performance expectations, injuries, schoolwork, and the constant drive to excel.
Now, as a therapist, I’m passionate about supporting student-athletes who may be struggling with stress, anxiety, burnout, identity, or transitions. My goal is to create a space where athletes feel seen beyond their sport and learn tools to care for both their mental and physical well-being. I offer affordable therapy online, as well as sliding scale options.
