I am a Registered Psychotherapist with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario (CRPO), membership #009101.
I am a self-lead Certified EMDR Therapist, EMDR Consultant in Training & IFS informed therapist and trained Psychedelic Assisted Therapist. My practice embodies a holistic approach to wellness, using the alchemy of science + spirituality to facilitate meaningful and long lasting positive changes. I am passionate about helping others achieve balance and harmony within their internal system and I create a safe container to support personal transformation so you can find your way back home - to yourself. I am in "flow state" when I am serving others in a therapeutic container and I resonate with the idea of being a "midwife of the psyche". I am humbled and honoured to be doing this work alongside you.
I have 10 years of experience working with youth, adolescents, and adults with mental health and behavioural concerns, in a variety of different capacities. I have a particular passion for helping others heal their mind and body from trauma in order to develop authentic and healthier versions of themselves. At this time, I am working primarily with adults who are suffering from acute or historical trauma and have and specialize in working with survivors of childhood abuse, as well as sexual violence. Additionally, I am an approved provider with Blue Cross and have a keen desire to help first responders and veterans experiencing PTSD + moral injury.
Using a transpersonal approach, I take a holistic approach to wellness that focuses on the mind, body, and spirit. Therapy doesn't have to feel stigmatized or old-fashioned; I am continuously striving to learn about and implement modern and creative ways to enhance the therapeutic process and healing journey for my clients based on scientific evidence and proven effectiveness.
As someone who values authenticity, I try to keep it as real and transparent as possible. I believe in shared power opportunities between therapists and clients and I will tell you that as your therapist, I "get it". By that I mean I get what it feels like to be "stuck" and I also get what it feels like to dive deep into your inner wounds and explore painful experiences within a therapeutic context. I have travelled the world and fully immersed myself into my own wellness journey and have deep reverence for the tools that have helped me along the way (transpersonal, somatics, EMDR + IFS, psychedelic assisted therapy, etc.) which is why I have dedicated myself to learning more about these approaches through advanced trainings and am able to offer them in my own clinical practice. I have extreme compassion for my part that identifies as a "healed healer" and I am here to help you along your own journey. I see you, I hear you, and I am here to support you.
