I’m an Ottawa-based somatic psychotherapist/registered social worker with a small, part-time practice (virtual and in person). My background in social justice education is integral to my approach — I'm deeply attentive to the ways the dominant culture impacts those of us who aren’t part of it. As a queer therapist, I’m honoured to work with people who hold an array of social identities, and am committed to co-creating a supportive place where that complexity is held with care and cultural humility.

In addition to SE, I draw on my Somatic Skills Online training with Kathy Kain, and Tao of Trauma training with Alaine Duncan, and since 2017, I’ve continued to deepen my learning – particularly around systemic trauma – as an SE assistant and session provider. I also bring my equine-facilitated mental health background into my practice where I can.
