Like many who enter this field, my path to becoming a counsellor started with my own journey. Living with anxiety and ADHD, I've experienced the ups and downs with my self-worth, emotional dysregulation, the impacts of spiritual trauma, and navigating challenges in relationships.
I've also walked through the difficult but rewarding (albeit ongoing) process of spiritual deconstruction and reconstruction, grappling with identity, belonging, and rebuilding values and beliefs.
Wherever you might find yourself—whether in grief, anxiety, stress, relational conflict, trauma, or self-doubt—you are welcome here. I take a trauma-informed approach focusing on relational safety and equipping you with tools for grounding, confidence, and alignment with the life you want.

I've also walked through the difficult but rewarding (albeit ongoing) process of spiritual deconstruction and reconstruction. I grappled with my identity, belonging, and the difficult process of rebuilding my values and beliefs. I feel passionate about helping those who feel lost in the middle of this process and are struggling to put the pieces of themselves back together.

Wherever you might find yourself today—whether in the trenches of grief, anxiety, struggling to emotionally regulate, experiencing overwhelming stress, relational conflict, trauma, or self-doubt—you are welcome here. My goal as a therapist is to bring empathy, curiosity, compassion, and a genuine belief in your capacity for growth.
