a licensed Clinical Social Worker/Psychotherapist with a Master of Social Work.  I am a social worker, a psychotherapist, somatic practitioner, and lifelong seeker of the small sacred moments that remind us who we really are.

I draw from somatic work, Internal Family Systems, breathwork, mindfulness, EMDR, hypnotherapy and trauma-informed CBT. I believe healing isn’t linear, it’s a spiraling path of remembering, releasing, and opening.  Whether your symptoms are emotional, physical, or a complex blend of both, therapy can become a place where your whole experience is welcomed. My goal is to help you feel more at home in your body, more regulated in your nervous system, and more supported as you move toward relief, resilience, and a deeper sense of wholeness.

we gently explore the mind–body connection, helping you understand how your nervous system, emotions, and past.    

I approach chronic pain and somatic symptoms with deep compassion and curiosity, never dismissing what your body is communicating. Pain and physical symptoms are not signs of weakness, they are often signals that your system has been carrying more than it should have had to carry alone. Together, we work to restore a sense of trust in your body, helping you reconnect with sensations of safety, stability, and presence.

If you’re feeling called to reconnect with yourself, ease old wounds, or simply breathe a little deeper, I’d be honoured to walk beside you. Healing begins with a single brave moment. You’ve already taken it.

Many of the people I work with arrive feeling overwhelmed, discouraged, or confused by symptoms that have not fully eased through insight alone or medical care. You may be living with trauma responses, anxiety, low mood, chronic pain, chronic illness, or other neuroplastic physical symptoms that feel deeply rooted in your body. At times, it can seem as though your nervous system is stuck in a state of survival mode, leaving you tense, shut down, exhausted, or disconnected from yourself and your life. When symptoms persist despite your best efforts, the experience can feel isolating and deeply frustrating.

 we gently explore how your brain and nervous system learned these patterns and how they can begin to shift. Using trauma informed psychotherapy, EMDR therapy (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), somatic therapy, and mind body approaches, we work with both emotional and physical experiences at the same time. EMDR is a powerful, evidence based therapy that helps the brain process experiences that remain unresolved and continue to drive emotional distress or physical symptoms. Sessions are carefully paced and do not require reliving traumatic experiences before you are ready, focusing instead on nervous system regulation, safety, and gradual healing.

 is warm, collaborative, and respectful of your unique story. Therapy is not about pushing through symptoms or “fixing” yourself, but about working with your mind body connection in a way that feels supportive and manageable. Alongside EMDR, somatic work, and mind body therapy, I integrate CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy) and DBT (Dialectical Behaviour Therapy) tools to build regulation, resilience, and greater ease in daily life. Many clients share that therapy helps them feel more grounded, less overwhelmed by symptoms, and more trusting of their body again. My intention is to support lasting healing, helping you move forward with greater balance, clarity, and a renewed sense of emotional and physical safety.

I am post graduate trained in Sensorimotor Art Therapy, Play Therapy, CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy), DBT (Dialectic Behavior Therapy), IFS (Internal Family Systems Therapy) and EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) therapy, a powerful modality for healing emotional and physical trauma. As a bilingual clinician, I also provide therapy in French.

I have been deeply interested in well-being and healing. I earned my first degree in dramatic arts, where I developed a particular interest in the therapeutic benefits of drama therapy. During this time, I was supporting a loved one who was suffering serious mental health and emotional difficulties, which deepened my interest in healing modalities. With now more than twenty years of clinical social work and psychotherapy experience across a diverse range of clients, I work with individuals, children, adolescents and families experiencing trauma, anxiety, divorce, grief, mood disorders, mind -body symptoms, and the multifaceted challenges that arise across the human lifespan.

within a strengths-based, anti-oppressive culturally informed framework, I draw from a broad repertoire of evidence-based modalities to tailor services to each client’s distinct needs. I am recognized for cultivating a therapeutic environment that is safe, inclusive, emotionally attuned, and that honors the complexity of every individual’s lived experience.

My journey to becoming a therapist began with my passion for health and helping others, which led me to a fulfilling career as a dietitian. I loved guiding people to transform their lives through nutrition, showing them how food could fuel their bodies and enhance their well-being.

 I came to see that emotional pain and physical symptoms are deeply connected. This insight led me to therapy, where I now help people heal from trauma, chronic pain, PTSD, fatigue, and other mind-body challenges by addressing the stress held in the body.

With over 20 years of experience, I’ve learned that true healing means caring for the whole person—mind, body, and spirit. My path began in nutrition, but my heart is now in helping others rediscover their strength and inner healing.
