I live in south east Calgary, Alberta with my fur baby and resident therapy dog, Tucker! I am someone who really values and prioritizes relationships in my life. I believe healing truly happens in community, so finding people you can relate to, connect with, and feel seen by, is key to finding yourself and a sense of solace.
To me, therapy is a place where two (or more) humans come together and begin making sense of the messiness of life to find a clearer path forward. Therapy has taught me that an individual is only one piece of the puzzle and true growth comes from looking at the whole picture of someone’s life and their location within the world to see what might be contributing to their underlying struggles. If we are only focusing on one part of a person and one simple therapy technique, we are missing a big piece of the puzzle!
My Therapy Style is relaxed, relational, sassy, flexible & direct!

I believe that in the field of psychology, we are constantly learning, adjusting, and growing from a wide collection of professional certifications and trainings as well as from our incredible and insightful clients.
To begin my training journey, I completed an undergraduate degree in psychology where my passion for this work began to flourish. After obtaining my undergraduate degree, I began to work alongside clients experiencing psychosis in a research clinic for over 3 years before starting my masters degree in counselling psychology at the University of Calgary.
After completing my masters, I dove right into private practice as I craved the flexibility to connect with clients that are an organic fit with my areas of focus and experience while also pushing the limits of what traditional manualized talk therapy allows.
