I identify as a human first, and a psychotherapist second.

As a human I am as slow-paced as the meditations I guide, an alliteration enthusiast, a humble activist, a wondering romantic, and a deeply attuned feeler. As a psychotherapist I am described as fiercely compassionate, gracefully provocative, a passionate pattern finder, and curious like a cat. I like holding the messy stuff, the taboo, and honouring the magic within our bones.

I come to the profession of psychotherapy with transparency. as a human I have a coloured history of both triumph and trauma. my experiences of trauma have informed my academic educational choices. The areas of expertise I possess, as a psychotherapist, are where I have personally alchemized my pain into peace. my personal experience leads me to know that healing is not linear; healing is circular. for this reason, I am honest in my therapeutic offerings. I am not a ‘quick’ fix psychotherapist because as a human ‘quick’ fixes did not offer me lasting healing.

My human experiences of healing mean that as a psychotherapist I offer long-term psychotherapy rooted in the principles of Jungian depth psychology, relational somatics, intersectional feminism, anti-oppressive ideologies, and interpersonal neurobiology.
