I am a Certified Health and Wellness coach with the NBHWC (will sit for board certification in 2025). And important to me are also the certifications I hold with MIEA as a Mindfulness Instructor with a 20-year personal practice of mindfulness and meditation, and as a Certified Wellness Practitioner with the National Institute of Wellness.
In our work together, we will view health and fitness as multi-dimensional concepts that include the whole person and many different wellness aspects such as physical health, nutrition, financial wellness, mental and emotional wellness, environmental living, spirituality, value-setting, and culture. My work is client-centered and focuses on helping YOU decide what your best self feels in your life. As a Health and Fitness Coach I will focus on being your biggest cheerleader and confidant, working through goal setting and obtainable action. Importantly, the foundation of this work is through my Ex(SEL) lens which centers on examining solidarity, equity, and liberation in your own life and the lives of those around you. In short, within each session, we will ensure that we bring the unique you into the conversation and all of who you are with you in your life goals.

I am a Counselling Art Therapist with a passion for inclusive, holistic, and equity based counselling. My goal is to create a safe, respectful, and validating space for you to explore your experiences through traditional talk therapy with the support of art and the art making process. Sometimes words do not get our important thoughts and feelings quite right, and art can be a great way to explore what lies within. NO ART EXPERIENCE NEEDED!
I enjoy working with children, teens, and young adults. My areas of expertise include trauma-informed care for those with neurodivergence, members of the 2SLGBTQ+ community, gender and sexuality counselling, somatic body based counselling, Family therapy, and play therapy. Whatever your unique lived experiences and counselling needs may be, you are welcome in my practice.
When I’m not in the office, I enjoy time with my busy family of five and our houseful of pets. I am an artist at heart with a love for playing the piano, creating for the sake of pleasure and enjoyment in my art room, and writing. You can always find me with a cup of coffee and book whenever there’s a spare moment.
It’s so nice to meet you!

Welcome!

I firmly believe that each client’s journey is unique and deserves an integrative approach that honours their individual experiences and needs.
