About Me
A safe space to be seen, heard, and supported—where meaningful change begins.
I am a licensed therapist with over 20 years of experience. I offer a warm, supportive space for individuals, couples, and families to explore life’s challenges and discover meaningful change. Whether we meet in person, by phone, or online, my goal is to walk alongside you with compassion, curiosity, and care.
I work with teens (14+) and adults from all walks of life—whether you're navigating trauma, grief, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, or simply feeling stuck. I welcome clients seeking either a faith-based (Christian) or non-faith-based approach, and tailor our work to reflect your values, beliefs, and lived experiences.
My approach is integrative and client-centred, grounded in the belief that healing happens through connection, safety, and self-discovery. I draw from a range of evidence-based therapies, including TF-CBT, EFT, EFFT, EFT-C, CBT, DBT, Solution-Focused Therapy, and more, while incorporating attachment-based and culturally responsive practices.

My Philosophy
I believe you are the expert in your own life. My role is to walk alongside you—to help uncover the roadblocks that may be holding you back and support you in discovering the insights that lead to meaningful change.
Life is full of shifting moments, and growth often begins when we embrace uncertainty and take a leap of faith. Whether you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or simply ready for something different, I offer a safe, respectful, and compassionate space where your story matters.
Are you ready to take a chance on yourself? To break free from old patterns, find clarity, and reconnect with what truly matters? I invite you to explore your experiences, challenge long-held beliefs, and open yourself to new possibilities.
Together, we’ll work toward helping you thrive—living with greater purpose, intention, and ease. This is your space to exhale, reflect, and begin again.
