I am an intern counsellor completing a Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology degree, and am excited for the opportunity to lean into over 15 years of experience working in community-based programs and social services. I have had the privilege of working alongside individuals of all ages, identities, and diverse family/caregiver structures including children, youth, and young adults growing up in the foster care system.
I bring a deep passion for welcoming and exploring the unique story of each person, nurturing their strengths, interests, and capacities while creating a supportive space to collaboratively work through life’s challenges. I look at the big picture of your life. Together, we’ll explore how your past experiences, your environment, and the different parts of who you are shape the person you are becoming today.
Through developing a meaningful and trusting connection to ground our work together, I strive to support your vision of health and well-being with warmth, openness, empathy, and kind care. I believe in exploring and (re)discovering your inner resources, and nurturing your authenticity in a way that is meaningful to you. Whether you are new to the counselling space or it is one that is familiar, I thrive in being flexible and creative to personalize your therapeutic process.
Outside of the counselling room, I enjoy spending time with my friends, family, and two cats, watching hockey, doodling art, drinking bubble tea, and creating in the kitchen – my latest special interest is making focaccia!
