I am drawn to helping Indigenous people understand and learn what makes them feel balanced, rooted, and grounded. 

​

The extraordinary part of life's hardships, is that we have the inner strength to weather the hard seasons. I believe that as Indigenous people, we are inherently resilient, it's a gift from our ancestors. But when we are in the depths of life's challenges, it's difficult to see our own inner strength and resilience. Part of the therapy process, is helping you see your strengths, your resiliency, your gifts, and your voice. I believe these are already planted within you and I'll help you see them too. 

​

I believe that humour and laughter is just good medicine. Even in the tough seasons. 

​

As your therapist my priority is to provide sacred confidential space and stillness for you to process your personal experiences. 

​

I believe there is power in story telling.  And that therapy is telling your story. It is the inner narrative of your experiences and understanding. 

​

The aim of therapy isn't too avoid the hard emotions or stress that are inherent in life, but instead to learn how to maneuver the hard seasons. Define your strengths. To nurture yourself. To learn. To grow. And, to heal. 

​

The issues that bring people to therapy are often specific ... they are feeling overwhelmed from stress. They are experiencing a difficult situation in life. Anxiety or depression keeps popping up. A situation from the past keeps getting triggered. 

​

My goal for counselling is to build a collaborative relationship with you that offers encouragement with how far you've come and to help you heal as you move forward.
