Areas of Interest & Specialization: Living in and relating to our body and self in a healthy way can be especially difficult in this day and age, given the countless messages and pressures we experience. Throughout our lifespan, a variety of experiences impact how we think about, feel about, and relate to our body and self, which in turn also often impact our relationships with others. I primarily draw upon emotion-focused and experiential, mindfulness-based, cognitive-behavioural, and trauma-informed approaches to therapy. In concrete terms, I help my clients to understand and improve their relationships with their emotions, their body and self, and others.

While I have training as a generalist and work with a variety of concerns (including depression, anxiety, self-harming behaviour, self-worth, identity, and interpersonal relationships), I have specialized training in the areas of disordered eating/eating disorders, embodiment, and body image issues. I also have have specialized training and skills in providing sex therapy, working with a variety of sexual concerns including low sexual desire and desire discrepancies, sexual pain, and anxiety and shame related to sex and sexuality.

Other Services I Offer: In addition to my clinical practice, I’m available for facilitating workshops and speaking engagements in the areas of body image and embodiment, eating disorders, and sexuality. I also provide clinical supervision.
