About Me.

My path to becoming a therapist was deeply shaped by one of the most meaningful experiences of my life—being my mother’s caregiver. Supporting her through the daily realities of living with a chronic illness was both challenging and transformative. It taught me about the depth of human connection, the nuances of care, and the quiet, enduring nature of resilience. That experience continues to inform how I show up in the therapy room—with compassion, presence, and a deep respect for each person’s story.

I was born and raised in rural Manitoba, and I’ve called Toronto home since 2007. I’m also raising two children here—an experience that constantly reminds me of life’s complexity, beauty, and unpredictability. These personal and geographic roots shape the way I connect with people: with warmth, pragmatism, and a belief in the strength that lives in all of us.

I’m a Registered Psychotherapist and a fully licensed member of the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario (CRPO), and a member of the Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Association. I abide by both associations’ ethical standards and am committed to ongoing professional development and supervision.

I completed my psychotherapy training at the Toronto Institute for Relational Psychotherapy, a rigorous program grounded in humanistic, relational, and trauma-informed approaches. I also completed the one-year professional training at the Gestalt Institute of Toronto, which deepened my ability to work experientially and with embodied awareness.

Before training as a therapist, I earned a BA in Conflict Transformation Studies from the University of Winnipeg. It was there that I first encountered family systems theory and attachment science—foundational ideas that continue to inform how I understand healing, development, and human connection.

I currently run a virtual private practice serving clients across Ontario. While most of my sessions take place online, I also can offer limited in-person appointments at my office in Toronto.

I work with adults, couples, and fellow therapists, and I continue to participate in workshops, supervision, and peer consultation as part of my ongoing commitment to ethical, attuned, and relational care. My pronouns are she/her.

It’s a privilege to do this work. I’m here to support you in finding clarity, connection, and meaningful change. With each client, I aim to co-create a space that is grounded in trust, care, and possibility. I’m so glad you’re here.

With gratitude,
