ABOUT ME

Welcome! My journey to becoming a therapist was a complicated one, though it didn't need to be. From a young age I told my parents I was going to grow up to be a therapist. However I knew that would take time and in my young adulthood my adventurous side got the best of me and took me on the scenic route, quite literally.

​

After working in the outdoor-adventure world for some time, and feeling the pull between adventure and desk, I found myself combining my two loves - the outdoors and psychology - in the work that I was putting out, and ultimately, it has led me to here.

​

I am a Registered Psychotherapist through the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario. I hold two post-secondary degrees as well as a master of arts in counselling psychology through Yorkville University. In addition to my clinical practice I am a Registered Yoga Teacher, focusing on mindfulness through movement and breath; and yes, on my days off you can find me outside somewhere, soaking up all the fresh air that I can.

​

I've been working with the psyche of individuals since 2014, both clinically and experientially. As part of my practice and philosophy I focus on connection, attachment, and inner narratives of each individual. Having worked therapeutically in out-patient, residential, and wilderness settings I've witnessed the impact connection can provide in both healing and coping. I strive to bring that into our work together using a trauma-informed and evidence-based treatment approach.
