Provider information
Description
Feeling overwhelmed, frustrated, or stuck? We can work together to get you moving forward. I strive to provide a space where empathy and connection are used to support individuals experiencing difficult emotions and experiences. I believe trust is earned and you get to decide how much of your trust I deserve. I believe that each person’s experience is uniquely impacted by their race, age, gender, and sexual orientation. I tailor my approach to your needs. Using trauma-informed modalities such as IFS, DBT and Poly Vagal Theory, I will offer insight and strategies for your consideration.

Summary
Welcome and thank you for taking the time to explore our practice. People seek counselling for a number of reasons; most often, in hope of gaining support through a new challenge, life transition, or difficulties from the past. Whatever is bringing you to our page, we are happy to help you with. We firmly believe that every person has the innate ability to cope with the challenges in their lives, but sometimes experiences from the past make it difficult to tap into these abilities. We can work to bring forward the parts of you that are seeking change and heal what has been getting stuck.
