Integrated Wellness Series: grounded - nourished - empowered

---

With over 14 years of experience supporting individuals and families in the mental health and child welfare fields, I’ve walked alongside people navigating complex systems, parenting challenges, life transitions, and high-stress situations.

Now, as a therapist, I work with individuals who are feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, burnout, chronic stress, grief, or the long-term impacts of trauma. I also support clients living with chronic illness and pain, helping them explore how emotional and physical wellness are deeply connected.

My approach is integrative, blending traditional talk therapy with body-based and skills-focused practices. You’ll often find me drawing from Internal Family Systems (IFS), somatic awareness, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, and mindfulness-based practices, while weaving in psychoeducation from my background in holistic nutrition. This allows us to explore healing not only through thoughts and emotions, but through your body, routines, and lifestyle as a whole.

My goal is to offer a space where you feel safe, respected, and empowered to show up as you are. I believe that small, intentional shifts can create lasting impact- especially when life feels heavy or stuck. These shifts are designed to fit into your busy life, while still honouring the deeper work of self-exploration, healing, and growth. I’m here to support you in a way that feels manageable and meaningful. Clients often tell me they feel more centred, empowered, and connected to themselves through our work together.

When I’m not in session, you’ll find me exploring the beautiful hiking trails in the Ottawa Valley with my family, tending to my gardens, getting lost in music, learning something new, or enjoying a quiet moment with a cup of tea and a good book.
