In Our Work Together (Clinical Approach)
You may find yourself here because you're feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, stuck in familiar patterns, or carrying experiences that continue to affect your relationships, emotions, or sense of self. Together, we'll approach these experiences with curiosity and care, exploring the patterns that no longer serve you while building on the strengths that have helped you get this far.
My work helps you understand how your nervous system has adapted to your experiences and how those adaptations continue to shape your emotions, relationships, and sense of self. Through greater awareness and integration, many people find themselves reconnecting with who they are. Through body-centred, trauma-informed therapy, we work toward meaningful change.
My approach integrates:
Attachment-informed theory (relationships, attachment repair and relational wounds)
Polyvagal-Informed and Nervous System Exploration
Trauma-informed and trauma-trained, grounded in anti-racist and anti-oppressive practice
Brainspotting (Phase 1 and 2)
Sometimes our bodies hold onto experiences even when our minds understand them. Brainspotting is a brain-body therapy that uses your gaze to access experiences held in the nervous system that may be difficult to reach through words alone. Through curiosity, attunement, and compassion, it supports the processing and release of trauma, emotional pain, and other overwhelming experiences.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)
EMDR is a structured, trauma-focused therapy that helps the brain process distressing memories and/or emotions. Our work includes attunement with the therapist, along with preparation, resourcing, and stabilization to build internal “guardrails” before processing. This helps support safety, regulation, and integration as emotional intensity decreases and healing unfolds.

Internal Family Systems (Level 2)
Internal Family Systems (IFS) is a parts-based therapy that helps you explore, understand and relate to different parts of yourself with curiosity. Through a compassionate, non-judgmental relationship with these parts, you can build self-leadership and internal safety.

Lifespan Integration (Level 3)
Lifespan Integration (LI) is a gentle, body-based therapy that uses a timeline of experiences to help the nervous system connect and organize the past, process trauma and attachment wounds, and foster a more coherent sense of self.
