I believe that happiness and wellness are best approached by truly addressing mind, body, and spirit. In addition to traditional talk therapy, I am practiced in mindfulness and various meditative techniques, and I have also been a certified personal trainer. Sometimes safe, honest and introspective conversation is all that is needed to move towards greater happiness, but at times meditation and movement can be  powerfully transformative supplements on one's path towards self-care and wellness.

I have years of therapeutic experience, working in clinical and community settings, in addition to the work I have done in coaching and educational roles. I believe that all therapeutic approaches tap into some basic and profound principles about how to apply greater wisdom in our lives. I see my primary role as helping to facilitate greater self-compassion, more effective and rewarding relationships, and to further the path towards meaning and fulfillment.

Counselling

​I am skilled and experienced in addressing a diverse range of challenges with individuals, couples and families. I have years of experience working within a variety of communities, including within LGBTQ2S+ communities, with those struggling with substance use, and those impacted by loss, trauma, and illness.

Mindfulness

Mindfulness and meditative techniques are a great supplement to traditional talk therapy, as they can greatly help facilitate self-compassion, self-awareness, and increased calm in stressful situations.

Movement

Sometimes there is no better or more direct way to improve mood and increase overall wellness than through physical activity. With my background as a coach and personal trainer, I am happy to explore with you the kinder, deeper, and self-sustaining motivations ​that may be going untapped or simply drowned out by the harsher, more punitive, and ultimately self-defeating voices that we often resort to for motivation.
