You need therapy as unique as you are.
And you’re tired of playing therapist roulette to find someone you vibe with.
You already know that you can't take all your problems to your bestie or your regular people.
You're worthy of time, attention, and effort, and therapy is where you can give it to yourself.
Let's make sense of all the pieces of your life and work through any challenges with a fresh, unbiased perspective. I'll help you understand not only how you tick, but why.
credentials + training
Welcome to my online office. I can help you understand your problems now in the context of your life, all while integrating & upgrading your skills so you can solve your problems. It may sound like a lot of ground to cover, but I make it easy.
Millennials need a unique approach to therapy because…
You see the world differently
You understand that early life experiences influence adulthood...
You’re concerned about mental health, relationships, the environment, the economy, the future, systemic problems...
And you need tools, coping skills and unbiased support because you realize that your support people can't be your only people.
Working together, you’ll gain practical skills tailored to your real life, shift beliefs that are holding you back, and start to show up in your relationships more authentically.

How do I book a consultation?
You can easily book a consultation by clicking the “Book with me” button at the top of this page. A consultation is a free 15-minute meet-and-greet chat where you can ask any questions you may have about working with me.
I live in Canada. Can we work together?
Yes! My counselling license and professional liability insurance allow me to work with people living unregulated provinces (British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Newfoundland & Labrador, Yukon, Nunavut, Northwest Territories). If you live in Ontario, Quebec, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island or internationally, please contact me first.
How do I know if therapy is right for me?
Therapy isn’t necessary for all people all the time. A consultation is a great opportunity to meet and chat briefly about what concerns you have to help determine if therapy is needed right now.
Is online therapy appropriate for me?
Online therapy is not appropriate for everyone. You will want to consider factors such as: if you have a private space where you can attend sessions, if you have a secure internet connection, and even the seriousness or intensity of the topic you want to address. If you hope to fit online therapy sessions in amongst your daily appointments, make sure that you will have time to transition from being in session to moving to your next task or meeting.

How often should I go to therapy?
Newly starting clients benefit from meeting once a week. This helps build momentum toward your goals and can quickly give you a sense of if we are a good fit to work together. More frequent sessions are especially helpful for those who are new to therapy or new to my practice.
How long does therapy take?
Each person’s therapy process depends on a lot of factors. Some people come to therapy short-term to resolve an issue, while others prefer to have long-term support. In general, for one newly emerging issue clients typically feel significantly better within 10 weeks of regular sessions. This isn’t the rule (or even the exception), but it can help to set some expectations.
