If you're struggling with anxiety, depression, relationships, stress, self-esteem, addiction, all of the above, or you simply recognize the value in having an objective person to open up to and process life's experiences and struggles, I provide a safe space for you to work towards your personal goals. I also understand that our current approach to mental health is steeped in colonialism and I strive to be guided by a de-colonial lens in my therapy practice. Please refer to my website to learn more! I specialize in trauma and addiction, and I use a variety of holistic and evidence-based approaches tailored to your individual needs, with an emphasis on mindfulness-based cognitive therapy, and internal family systems. I believe we cannot understand the mind separate from the body, nor a person separate from their environment. Therapy is not about having all the answers, but guiding you to access your own inner healer. I believe that compassionate connection to the present moment, our bodies, and the quality of our thoughts are the greatest tools we have to change our lives. I look forward to your call for a free phone consultation.
