I completed my Master’s degree in counselling psychology from Yorkville University and hold a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from the University of Alberta. My schooling provided me with training in cognitive behavioural therapy interventions, crisis and trauma counselling, family therapy, group counselling, and biopsychosocial approaches to counselling.

​

I have experience working with a range of issues, including anxiety, trauma, stress management, and emotional dysregulation. I enjoy practicing from an attachment-based perspective and use a variety of therapeutic techniques, including Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT), Theraplay-informed techniques, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT).

​

Prior to working at Lumos, I provided in-home consultation, coaching, and support services for families with children who have mental health concerns and developmental delays. I also have experience providing school-based consultation to teachers and staff supporting children and adolescents experiencing mental health and behavioral challenges.

​

I am passionate about helping individuals of all ages and provide an empathic, genuine, and honest environment to foster reflection and healing. I believe in a collaborative, client-centered approach to ensure my clients feel empowered to make positive, long-term growth.
