Learn more about my current psychotherapeutic services:
One-to-one support for exploring what you’re carrying, understanding familiar patterns, and finding ways forward that make room for your whole experience.
A therapeutic space to explore your experience alongside others, with room for shared understanding, connection, and learning through relationship.
The Wisdom That Shapes This Work
This work is shaped by a blend of psychological, physiological, ecological, and cultural ways of understanding what it means to be human.
Depth Psychology
Working with the unconscious, archetypes, and the deeper patterns that shape how we live and relate.
Eco-Spirituality
Understanding ourselves as part of the natural world—connected to land, cycles, and something larger than the individual self.
Embodiment & Somatics
Listening to the body as a source of insight, regulation, and lived experience—not just something to manage or override.
Trauma-Informed & Neurodivergent-Affirming
Honouring the ways our nervous systems adapt, and working with—not against—how each person is wired.
Decolonizing Perspectives
Questioning inherited norms around productivity, individualism, and wellness, and making space for more relational ways of living.
My Stance as a Therapist
I am continually examining the cultural, systemic, and colonial roots of psychotherapy and working toward more relational, land-connected, and justice-informed healing practices.
As a white settler Canadian practicing on stolen Anishinabek land, I understand that decolonizing therapy is ongoing, imperfect work. I am committed to reflection, humility, and accountability in how I practice and how I understand suffering — situating pain within systems as well as personal history.
Decolonization is a collective act, but it must also be lived in individual lives and minds for it to take root in the systems that hold us. If you’re interested in decolonizing your own mind, therapy can help with that too.
I hold that people are ecosystems. Symptoms make sense in context. Healing is not about becoming someone new — it is about becoming more fully yourself.
