Insight-Based Psychotherapy and Mental Health & Wellbeing Consulting

  I have been a practicing therapist and social worker since 2013. I specialize in therapy with Queer and Trans identifying folx as well as with survivors of violence and those facing challenges posed by complex grief, depression and PTSD.

  I hold degrees at both the Bachelor and Masters level of Social Work, with specializations in narrative approaches, relational approaches, crisis and addictions.  I utilize CBT, DBT and brief solution-focused therapy as well as art techniques and mindfulness approaches to assist in client healing.     

   I am trauma-informed in my work and believe in the inherent strength of my clients; coping takes on many forms for people, and I am accepting and non-judgmental of the material ways that survival is enacted. 

  I am an active advocate in the community, and am completing my PhD in Gender, Sexuality and Women’s Studies at Western University.  I have presented my work both nationally and internationally, including at the University of Oxford, and Harvard University.  

I teach at both the Bachelors and Masters level at the School of Social Work at King's University College at Western University.

  I bring years of expertise and experience in counselling and consulting to improve coping, functioning, and mental health & wellbeing and I look forward to working with you.
