I am constantly growing in the various identities I hold: Daughter, Wife, Mother, Sister, Friend, Colleague, Supervisor, Therapist, Community member, and Settler. Within it all, I am a person who values vulnerability, accountability, humour and deep meaningful connections. In the winter you’ll find me under multiple layers and in the summer, you can find me where the food and dance-like-no-one-is-watching music is at. I’m still looking for my “hobby”, but I have concluded with confidence it doesn’t involve sports-ball. Sarcasm and wit are my love language but when I am feeling down, a good ol’ safe space to cry and be held, fills my emotional cup. Looking forward to getting to know you!
Hello! Welcome to your first step in inviting meaningful change in your life and in your relationships. I am a Registered Psychotherapist and a Registered Marriage and Family Therapist of 8 years. My individuality is rooted in: my cultural identity, the roles I hold (as wife, mother, sibling, friend, child, and therapist), & the values I hold (for respect, authenticity, care, community and fun).
In individual therapy, I invite you to connect with me, to explore the values you hold dear, what is getting in the way of honouring those values, and then collaborate in creating concrete steps to getting you closer to where you hope to be! Although it is just you and I in the room, often we will explore your relationships with concepts and/or people outside of the room, that are influencing who you are and who you want to be.
I truly believe you have the strengths and capacity to invite the change you are looking for and lean into the fact that you are the expert on you and your situation. I am just the expert on asking the right questions. There might be some tough questions and moments. Fear not, I will be right there to go at your pace, gently challenge you, and hold a non-judgemental, anti-oppressive, safe space for you to grow and move into your best self. Scary as it might be, take a chance on you, because you deserve it!
Hello! I am a Registered Psychotherapist and a Registered Marriage and Family Therapist of 8 years. I’m a wife and a mother of two tiny humans. If you are seeking me out, you might be finding yourself in a place where you are tired of living in the same patterns of frustration and upset in the relationships you hold. Be that your partner, friendship, colleague, community member, parent, sibling and/or child. I am so happy you are here to invite meaningful change into these relationships and in your life!
When you work with me in the context of relationship/family therapy, you can expect us to explore the values each of you hold dear as an individuals and as a relationship, investigate what patterns are getting in the way of honouring those values, and then together we will come up with concrete steps to move you closer to where you imagine your ideal relationship to be and look like.
I believe you are the expert on you and your relationships, and I am just the expert on asking the right questions. There might be some tough questions and moments. I will be right there go at your pace, gently challenge you, and hold a non-judgemental, anti-oppressive, safe space for you to grow and create new patterns that invite deeper connections in your important relationships. The current pattern is no longer working for you, so lets co-create a new one together!
