You might feel stuck in the same arguments, disconnected from your partner, or unsure how to move forward. I work with couples who want real change, not just talking. Using EMDR, we focus on the underlying trauma and patterns driving the cycle so your relationship can feel more steady and connected. I also support individuals navigating anxiety, ADHD, stress, life transitions, boundaries, and grief, using EMDR to help process what's keeping you stuck so you can actually move forward.

In sessions, we slow things down and look at what's happening in the moment so patterns become clear. I guide you through conversations differently so you can hear each other, respond instead of react, and handle conflict without it spiraling. We also do real work on the stuff underneath, exploring your values, the stories you carry about yourself, and the parts of you that are in conflict. You'll leave with practical tools you can use right away.

With 14 years of experience and a Master of Social Work from the University of Calgary, I draw on EMDR, CBT, DBT, ACT, somatic approaches, Gottman, narrative therapy, and parts work to tailor sessions to what you actually need. I work with adults and couples, and I'm especially drawn to helping people break free from perfectionism, people-pleasing, and patterns rooted in early experiences.

Reaching out can feel like a big step, especially if you've been managing things on your own for a while. You don't need the right words or a clear plan to begin. I offer a space where you can show up as you are, and we'll work through things together in a way that feels manageable and real. I offer flexible booking, sliding scale options, and direct billing with most major providers so therapy fits your life, not the other way around.
