“You can’t go back and change the beginning, but you can start where you are and change the ending.”

About Me:

I am a therapist with a Master of Social Work from the University of Calgary. I am passionate about accompanying people in their healing journeys and creating spaces where they feel truly seen, heard, and supported. My goal is to offer a safe, collaborative, and client-centred environment that empowers individuals to explore challenges, discover strengths, and move toward meaningful change.

Before completing my graduate studies, I earned a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from the University of New Brunswick (2017), followed by a Bachelor of Social Work from Dalhousie University (2020). These experiences deepened my understanding of individual and collective wellbeing and inspired my commitment to integrating compassion with evidence-based approaches in clinical practice.

My career in social work has given me the privilege of working with individuals and families through diverse and often complex circumstances. These experiences have taught me the value of adaptability, empathy, and genuine connection, which I carry into a holistic practice grounded in anti-oppressive, trauma-informed, and strength-based approaches. I am also committed to ongoing learning and continue to expand my clinical skillset through exploring various therapeutic modalities to best meet the needs of those I support.

Quick Facts:

Specialties:

Anxiety, depression, stress and overwhelm, life transitions, self-esteem and identity concerns, grief and loss, burnout, healthy boundaries, and support related to past trauma or adverse experiences. As a new graduate clinician, I am eager to support individuals across a wide range of concerns, beyond those listed here, as I continue to grow in my practice.

Therapies and Approaches Used: My approach is integrative and tailored to each client, drawing on ACT, CBT, and Narrative Therapy, with influences from Internal Family Systems (IFS). It is grounded in anti-oppressive, trauma-informed, strength-based, and client-centred practice.

Why Clients Work with Me:

Clients often appreciate my compassionate, non-judgmental approach and the safe space I create for exploring difficult emotions. I place a strong value on building a trusting, collaborative therapeutic relationship, believing meaningful change happens when people feel genuinely seen and supported. I balance empathy with structure, helping clients navigate challenges at their own pace while identifying strengths and strategies for meaningful change.

Things I like to do in my spare time:

In my spare time, I enjoy travelling to new places, spending quality time with loved ones, getting lost in a good book, spending a Sunday afternoon on the golf course, and cuddling with my dog; moments that keep me grounded and bring balance to my life.
