Life can throw experiences at us that shake our sense of who we are, challenge our worth, or make us question where we belong. These experiences are universal — no one is immune — but the ways we process and respond to them are deeply personal. 

I see therapy as a transformative and progressive process, where we explore possibilities together and take each next step intentionally. My hope is that clients leave therapy feeling more connected to themselves and their priorities — making choices, directing their energy, and focusing on the parts of life that feel truly meaningful and aligned with who they are. 

What is your training? 

I have a Master of Counselling degree from Gonzaga University. I graduated in 2011. Prior to being a Registered Provisional Psychologist, I practiced as a Certified Canadian Counsellor. I have advanced training in EMDR therapy and continue to grow through professional development opportunities. 

What experiences do you bring to your work as a therapist? 

I have "learned the hard way" more times than not. I've had to let go in the face of disappointment, grieve losses that shook me to my core, and I've been lucky to embrace surprises I didn't think would ever come my way. By doing my own therapy work, traipsing around the dog park and finding comfort in connection, I've found my way through.
