Counselling for burnout, grief, life transitions and health challenges
I see individuals at our Victoria office and online, in English or French. Many people come to me feeling depleted, grieving, or searching for more meaning and connection in their lives.
My approach
I have a deep respect for our natural capacity to heal. I believe we each carry a blueprint for health, along with an inner guidance we can build a relationship with and lean on, even in difficult times.
My work grew out of a fascination with how body, mind and spirit connect to shape our experience. I work from a holistic, somatic and attachment-oriented lens, inspired by a lasting love of the natural world and earth-based wisdom.
My approach is empowering, intuitive and compassionate. I welcome people from all backgrounds and life experiences, and I’d be glad to be part of the root system that supports your growth.
How I work
- Somatic therapy
- Attachment-oriented therapy
- Holistic, body-mind-spirit approach
- Earth-based & nature-informed practices
- Pre- and perinatal psychology
Body, mind & spirit
Healing that includes the body
Alongside my counselling training, I’m a Medical Qigong therapist and have trained in pre- and perinatal psychology. I bring that understanding of the body into somatic, attachment-oriented counselling, at a pace that feels right for you.

“I’m passionate about supporting people on their journey of healing and growth, and fostering health in body, mind and spirit.”
My story
Life has been my greatest teacher. The hardest challenges I’ve faced have humbled and shaped me, and given me some of my most valuable lessons.
A few years ago, I had two head injuries in close succession. That gave me an intimate understanding of how complex trauma can be. Through what felt like impossible circumstances, I healed and rebuilt my trust in life and in myself, and I came away committed to supporting others in their own healing.
Along with life experience, exceptional teachers in psychology, earth-based wisdom and energy medicine have shifted how I see things and given me a lasting passion for the art of healing. Nature remains one of my greatest teachers.
