how are you today?

 
 

Hint

There's no right or wrong answer

→ Are you experiencing inner conflicts that make you feel like you’re stuck?

→ Are previous coping strategies no longer working for you?

→ Is something off that you can’t seem to name?

 
 
 

Through exploring thoughts, feelings, and body sensations, we can focus on the ways of being that you would like to keep, let go, re-discover, or grow.

Using compassion and humour, we’ll work together to understand reactions and how to work towards chosen responses to help navigate you to a different and better place for you.

 
 

About me

I identify as a cis white queer settler. I am a registered Social Worker and have been practicing social work and psychotherapy since 2012.

I hold a Masters of Social Work from the University of Manitoba.

My experience working in various community agencies has provided me with the privilege of working with a very diverse group of folks.

My background includes working with those who have experienced:

→ unresolved trauma
→ challenges with substances
→ addiction
→ depression
→ anxiety
→ post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)
→ sexual abuse/assault
→ self harm
→ discrimination
→ grief and loss
→ involvement with the criminal justice system
 

I am LGBTQ2S and sex positive.
I believe in harm reduction.

 

My clinical focus follows an approach that is:

Holistic
Feminist
Trauma-informed
Strengths-based
Anti-oppressive
& Intersectional.

 
 

I use a variety of different therapeutic modalities as everyone is unique, where we can discover what fits best for you.

These include but are not limited to:
→ mindfulness
→ narrative therapy
→ internal-family systems
→ sensorimotor psychotherapy
→ cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT)

 
 
 

I am client-centred and practice regular check-ins to make sure we are following the path you want to be on.

I can connect with you over the phone or Zoom.

Day and select evening appointments available.

My rate is $180 for a 50 minute session.
