Warm, grounded, and a little bit playful — that's my therapy style. I'm a Registered Social Worker with 8 years' experience supporting people through trauma, PTSD, depression, anxiety, relationship strain, and life transitions. I blend trauma-informed care with a holistic lens, so we work on feelings and nervous-system safety while also building real-world tools that make daily life kinder to your mind and body.
I believe healing is both gentle and active. In sessions you'll find compassionate listening, practical strategies (breathwork, grounding, boundary-setting, and routine design), and attention to nervous-system regulation and mindfulness. I help clients rewire unhelpful patterns so their thoughts and bodies can speak the same language — calmer, clearer, and more aligned.
Whether you’re rebuilding after a distressing experience, navigating relationship or lifestyle changes, or simply wanting daily life to feel more manageable and meaningful, I’ll meet you where you are. Expect warm curiosity, evidence-informed techniques, and an occasional moment of humour to remind us healing can have lightness too.
If you're ready to feel steadier, more connected to yourself, and to rediscover alignment and wholesomeness within — let’s take the next small step together.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
