AboutWhat can you expect from working with me?
How I Can Help
We all want a fuller, more meaningful life, and most of us are doing the best we can with what we have. Still, it is easy to get stuck: caught in routines, living for others, or sensing that something important is missing. Even asking "What do I want?" can feel overwhelming. Therapy does not have to be about fixing what is "wrong." It can be a space for clarity, liberation, and meaningful change. Everything we do meets a need, or we would not do it; and getting curious about those needs can open the door to a life that feels more aligned and self-directed. You do not need to have it all figured out to begin therapy.
I approach each session with the belief that you are the expert of your own life. There are no judgements or assumptions made during our time; my focus is on collaborating with you to create a space where your voice, your wants, and your unique perspectives are not only heard, but supported and advocated for. You do not have to carry it alone.
You are not the problem, the problem is the problem; you need not limit your life to it. I bring a feminist and social-justice lens that honours you and centres your lived experience in context. Together, we focus on what matters most to you, nurture your sense of agency, and create space for change that feels possible and true to the life you want to live.
About Me
Registered Psychotherapist, RCAT-S, DTATI, HBA
Offering psychotherapy, art therapy, and clinical supervision across Ontario
I believe therapy should feel like a place where you can exhale.
Many people come to me feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure of what they need, only knowing that something does not feel right. You do not need to have the right words or a clear goal to begin. We start wherever you are.
In our work together, you can expect a space that is collaborative, non-judgmental, and grounded in curiosity. I approach each session with the belief that you are the expert in your own life, and my role is to help you make sense of patterns, reconnect with yourself, and move toward a life that feels more aligned and meaningful.
My practice is informed by a feminist, anti-oppressive, and social-justice lens that honours your lived experience and the systems that shape it. You do not have to carry things alone here.

What Therapy With Me Feels Like
You don't need to have the right words when you arrive. We start wherever you are.
Our work together helps you slow down, notice what's happening inside, and make sense of patterns that may have been with you for a long time. We look at your story, your relationships, your body, and the systems you live within - not as problems to fix, but as places to understand.
In our sessions, you can expect:
Space to explore your thoughts and emotions without judgment
Gentle curiosity about how your past shapes your present
Attention to how stress, trauma, and emotion live in the body
Support in understanding your identity, values, and sense of self
Conversations about masculinity, roles, and expectations that may feel hard to name
Creative and expressive tools when words aren't enough
Awareness of how social, cultural, and political systems impact your well-being
A focus on your strengths, resilience, and capacity for growth
A pace that feels safe, collaborative, and respectful
This is therapy that honors the whole person: your history, your body, your relationships, and your lived experience.
