About the Therapist 

Before I ever became a therapist, I was the person others came to when things felt heavy or confusing. My path to counselling started with lived experience. Later working in mental health and addiction and now in the counselling field for over 12 years. This experience along with many years of education and continuous trainings provides me with skills and knowledge to be able to support you well. Over the years I’ve had the privilege to support many individuals and those in relationship towards understanding their bodies, and their minds, emotions, and their sexual health. 

I know what it’s like to sit with big questions about who you are, what you want, and what you were taught to believe. As a queer-affirming therapist who grew up in a conservative religious environment, I bring both compassion, deep understanding, as well as clarity to these spaces. You don’t have to sort it all out alone. 

On a more personal note, one of my favourite thing I deeply enjoy is jam and cheese on toast!
