Across the last 15 years as a psychologist (in prison, community, hospital, remote and private settings), I have been committed and honoured to journey with clients using evidence-based practices as a compass for self-discovery.

I offer reflections and skills that can help make your next step more conscious and consistent with your deepest values. I am curious and motivated to explore and enhance your well-being across multiple aspects of life, including mood, sleep, diet, work, social, creative, and spiritual, as I believe all areas are connected and contribute to holistic well-being.

I believe the real work of a therapist is to empower you with self-awareness and skills that allow you to create a vital and enriching life far beyond the therapy space, and this is my intention for you.
