Hi, I’m Mara! I have had the pleasure of spending the last 10 years working with neurodivergent youth and adults in both research and hands-on experiences. The most notable takeaway from getting to know so many wonderful people is that we humans are more resilient than we give ourselves credit for. While I typically don’t make promises, I guarantee that if we work together, you WILL surprise yourself with how much you’re capable of. As strange as it might sound, if you are exhausted, anxious, stressed, fed up with recurring symptoms, or unsure about therapy, I would love to work with you (Bonus points if you’re also navigating obsessive-compulsive challenges!) Think about how much more peace you’d have in your life if anxiety wasn’t calling all the shots. That’s the kind of space I aim to help you create. Discomfort will no longer be something to avoid; we will approach it as an opportunity to break free from vicious cycles of avoidance. My hope is to show you that therapy doesn’t have to be like what you remember from childhood, or what you’ve seen on TV. I am not here to tell you how you’ve experienced life. I am here to listen to your heaviest pain, your biggest fear, your greatest success, and everything in between. I will guide you in exploration of your experiences and gently challenge you to build confidence to lead a fulfilling life on your own terms. And of course, if you’re into it, you can expect some humour to be a part of our work together. Counselling Modalities Used: Acceptance and Commitment (ACT) Cognitive Behavioural (CBT) Exposure Response Prevention (ERP) Internal Family Systems (IFS) Existential Narrative Person-Centered Strength-Based Areas of Focus: Obsessive-compulsive disorder Anxiety Life transitions Emotional regulation Self-worth Stress and burn-out Identity

I offer equine-assisted therapy as a gentle, meaningful way to support healing, growth, and connection. Working alongside horses can create space for reflection, self-awareness, and emotional regulation in a way that feels grounding and natural. Horses have a unique way of meeting us exactly where we are, often helping us notice what is happening beneath the surface without pressure or judgment. This is non mounted and you do not need to have horse experience to engage.
