If you are feeling overwhelmed, lost, or are struggling to live your life to its fullest potential, I would be honoured to help you. I promise to value the relationship with each of my clients. Our work together will begin with establishing trust, safety, and connection. My goal is support you in the ways that you need me. We will explore your strengths and help you to unburden yourself of the hardships you are carrying. Your story is important and I will listen with curiosity, compassion, non-judgment, and cultural humility. I want to understand where you’ve been, and collaboratively help you get to where you would like to be. I understand that you might feel nervous or unsure about getting help. As such, I will always acknowledge your courage and resilience. I am honoured by the opportunity to get to know you. I bring my authenticity into the therapy room along with an awareness of my intersectional identity and lived experience. I enjoy working with diverse clients and am an LQBTQ2S+ ally. My approach is client-centered, humanistic, trauma-informed, and experiential. I believe that the process of working through our challenges and traumas leads to greater capacity and wisdom. I won’t ever tell you to “look on the bright side”. Instead, I believe –that although the survivor’s life has been deeply changed– it is far from over and that future joyful living is indeed possible.
