I’m a Registered Psychotherapist and part of Leanne’s care team, working with clients virtually across Ontario.

I work with high-achieving adults who have spent years being accommodating, pleasant, and never a burden. People who have become experts at making themselves smaller, silencing their own needs, and keeping everyone else comfortable. If that sounds like you, I want you to know: the way you learned to show up in the world made sense once. But it is costing you now, and you deserve something different.

My work focuses on what lives beneath the surface. Together, we explore the emotional patterns that keep you stuck, nurture the needs that have gone unmet, and work toward a version of connection, with yourself and with others, that does not cost you your sense of self.

My primary approach is Emotionally Focused Individual Therapy (EFIT), grounded in attachment science. I also draw from CBT, ACT, and trauma-informed modalities, tailored to your unique needs.

I do not come to this work as an observer. I have sat in the client’s chair myself, navigating anxiety and complex trauma. That experience shapes every session. I am commonly described as warm, gentle, and grounded. I welcome you however you show up.

> You have held space for everyone else. Let someone hold it for you.

I’m a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) and part of Leanne’s care team, working with individuals and couples virtually across Ontario.

I work with people who are quietly carrying the weight of a life transition they were not prepared for. New parents treading water through postpartum and feeling guilty for needing help. People sitting in grief they do not know how to name. Partners who love each other but have stopped being able to reach each other. If you keep showing up for everyone else and have no one there when it is your turn to fall apart, I want you to know there is space for you here.

What I know to be true is that healing and growth happen in connection, not in isolation and not in pushing through. My work is relational and client-centred: you set the pace, you lead the direction, and I hold what you bring with care.

I draw from Emotionally Focused Individual Therapy (EFIT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), attachment-focused and trauma-informed approaches, and mindfulness-based practices, always guided by what feels right for you rather than a fixed protocol. I have completed specialized training in perinatal mental health and Gottman Method Couples Therapy (Level 1).

I come to this work through lived experience, not just training. I know what it is to carry birth trauma and undiagnosed postpartum anxiety while looking like I was managing on the surface. When I finally found someone willing to sit with me in the mess of it, everything shifted. That is what I hope to offer you.

You do not have to carry this alone. And you do not need to have the words for it yet.

I’m a Registered Psychotherapist based in Kitchener, Ontario, with over 12 years of experience helping high-functioning adults and couples who look like they have it all together but feel like they’re barely holding on.

I specialize in anxiety, trauma, and relationship work. Not the kind that just teaches you to cope better, but the kind that helps you heal the root of what’s keeping you stuck.

I blend relational psychotherapy, somatic work, mindfulness, and trauma-focused approaches. I’m also a trained Somatic Experiencing Practitioner and Gottman Method therapist. Clients often describe me as warm, grounded, and gently challenging.

> My hope is that therapy feels like a space where all parts of you are welcome, including the ones you’ve learned to hide.
