My Practice

”Real change comes about through awareness, not effort” - Ron Kurtz

Who I Work With: Often, the people I support are moving through inner or outer transitions. They’re looking to slow down, to reconnect with what matters, and to meet themselves with greater compassion and curiosity. If you're seeking a place to explore your experience more deeply, and to be met with a warm and grounded presence, this may be the right place for you.

My Approach: In our work together, we’ll often return to the present moment - what’s happening in your body, what emotions are stirring, and what parts of you are wanting to be heard and held.I draw on mindfulness, somatic awareness, and depth-oriented therapy to help bring unconscious patterns into awareness. This is not about fixing you - it's about getting to know the deeper layers of your experience, so that you can feel more in the driver’s seat of your life.When we learn to take care of our inner world and practice letting in the nourishment available to us in each moment, incredible shifts are possible.


Some of the work we might do together…

  • Tuning into your embodied responses and learning what they’re trying to tell you

  • Bringing awareness to the parts of you that feel anxious, stuck, or unseen

  • Working through grief, emotional pain, or life transitions with gentleness and care

  • Cultivating a more compassionate and curious relationship with yourself

  • Learning to stay present, even in the midst of uncertainty and change

  • Reconnecting with the natural world as a source of grounding, insight, and healing

About Me

At my core, I am a student of life. Though this has taken different forms over the years, I keep returning to a few key areas of study: songwriting and guitar playing, improving my communication in my relationships, and the ins and outs of living a meaningful, connected life.Though I don’t follow a single spiritual tradition, I have practiced meditation within a traditional Buddhist framework for upwards of a decade and regularly draw inspiration from the Buddha's teachings. As a person, I’ve come to embrace life’s in-between spaces and find peace in not fitting into neat boxes.Nature connection is also central to my life. I like to say that I am a dedicated student of “Earth School” - I view the Earth as a profound source of wisdom and healing, and I try to return to the land regularly on walks with my dog, by going on retreats out of the city, and just generally being awake to the reality that we share this planet with other living beings.If any part of my journey resonates with you, please reach out and connect. I look forward to meeting with you!

Group Therapy

Body-Centered Psychotherapy

Are you looking for someone to talk to, who can provide a calm and grounding presence? Are you looking for a meaningful therapeutic connection?As a therapist, I view talk therapy through the lens that lasting change often requires a deeper mind-body connection. That’s why I integrate mindfulness-based and psychodynamic approaches, helping you explore emotions, patterns, and experiences on a deeper level. I believe that therapy has the greatest potential when we feel safe enough to explore freely in the presence of another.Counselling sessions offer a space for open conversation and personal growth, available virtually or in office on Friday’s at the Branches in Kitchener, ON.Connect via email at [email protected] to book a free 20-minute consultation.


/ $155 per 55-minute session
// Limited sliding scale options available

Breathwork

Walk & Talk Ecotherapy

Walk & Talk or nature immersion sessions integrate the healing presence of nature into therapy.We’ll meet outdoors, either on a trail for a walk or by finding a quiet, comfortable spot to sit together. This approach can enhance mindfulness, regulate the nervous system, and support emotional well-being, with research highlighting the therapeutic benefits of nature connection in reducing stress and improving overall mental health.You can choose between two options: 1) a Traditional Walk & Talk - where we meet in-person at a local park or trail, or 2) a Distanced Walk & Talk - where we connect via phone while walking separately in our chosen environments.Curious to learn more?

/ $160 per 60-minute session*All new clients require an Initial Consultation and Intake Session before booking their first Walk & Talk.

Humanistic Therapy

Mindfulness Coaching

These sessions offer a space to explore meditation and mindfulness as a living, embodied practice - one that supports presence in everyday life while meeting you exactly where you are. Whether you're brand new to meditation, feeling stuck in your practice, or seeking to deepen your connection, these sessions provide personalized guidance through the foundational elements of mindfulness.Through guided meditation, breath-work, and contemplative dialogue, we gently meet the places where the mind resists and the heart longs to soften - building a practice rooted in connection and consistency.*Please note: These sessions are not psychotherapy, but may compliment psychotherapy sessions by supporting regulation, insight, and inner awareness.Curious to learn more? Connect via email at [email protected] to discuss booking an introductory session.


/ $100 per 1 hour introductory session
// $250 per intro/starter bundle (3 sessions)
