I am a trauma-informed, anti-oppressive and culturally competent therapist with over 17 years of experience providing services to clients. I specialize in supporting adolescents and adults who are navigating anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, neurodiversity, identity or general life stressors. 

My approach is collaborative and strengths-based, offering inclusive and affirming individual and relationship therapy for clients of all sexual, gender, and relationship orientations. My goal is to create a safe and comfortable space where you can deepen your self-awareness, honor your unique identities, experiences, and values, improve your overall well-being, and feel empowered to make fully informed decisions about your life.

​

I recognize that reaching out and starting this work with a therapist takes vulnerability and courage and I would be honoured to support you in this journey. If you have any questions, or if you’d like to explore if working together would be a good fit, please contact me to schedule a free 15 minute phone consultation.

Land Acknowledgement

We respectfully acknowledge that Cold Lake is located on Treaty 6 territory and within the traditional lands of Cold Lake First Nations, Frog Lake First Nation, Kehewin Cree Nation, and Beaver Lake Cree Nation, as well as the Métis communities and settlements of northeastern Alberta, including Elizabeth Métis Settlement and Fishing Lake Métis Settlement. We honour their enduring relationships with the land, culture, family, and community.

As social workers, we believe a land acknowledgement is more than recognizing where we are. It also means acknowledging the ongoing impacts of colonization and respecting Indigenous knowledge, strengths, and diverse ways of healing.

In our practice, this means approaching Indigenous ways of knowing and healing with cultural humility, respecting self-determination, and honouring Indigenous ways of healing.

For us, reconciliation requires continued learning, reflection, from respectfuland reciprocal, and a commitment to building respectful and reciprocal relationships through our practice of social work.
