Navigating life’s challenges — from substance use and complex trauma to grief, loss, and major transitions — can feel overwhelming. I offer a compassionate, supportive space where you can slow down, breathe, and begin to make sense of what you’re carrying. Whether you’re struggling with substance use, supporting someone you love, or moving through anxiety, depression, or change, you don’t have to face it alone. These experiences can ripple through every part of life, shaping relationships, work, and your sense of self.
My work centres your unique story and the emotional weight of what you’ve lived through. I recognize how grief, loss, and life transitions live not just in the mind, but in the body and nervous system. My approach gently weaves together somatic practices with relational and emotional support, helping you reconnect with yourself in grounded, meaningful ways.
I can support folks navigating eating disorders and exploring their relationship with food and body through an anti-oppressive, weight-inclusive lens. I recognize that struggles with food and body are not personal failures — they are shaped by systems that teach us to disconnect from ourselves. Diet culture, fatphobia, white supremacy, ableism, cisheteronormativity, and colonial standards of health and beauty all influence how we see our bodies and our worth. Together, we gently unpack these messages while tending to their emotional and embodied impact. Our work moves away from shame and control, and toward self-trust, compassion, and a more nourishing relationship with food, body, and identity.
I also help clients explore boundaries, family dynamics, and relationship patterns, understanding how these deeply personal experiences shape daily life and self-worth. I walk alongside you as you untangle old patterns, tend to emotional wounds, and build more nourishing ways of relating to yourself and others.
You deserve support that honours your pace, your resilience, and the fullness of your experience.
