Individual Counselling
A Gentle Place to Land - Rooted in Love & Liberation
Insight-oriented, trauma-informed individual therapy for adults seeking an unhurried space to slow down, process complex life experiences, and reconnect with their inherent wisdom.
Weaving Paths & Two-Eyed Seeing
Therapy with me is a relational, unhurried space. Rather than following a rigid map or chasing predetermined outcomes, we allow room to meander.
Healing is not always linear, and I don’t believe therapy needs to be either. We make room for what is most present, allowing the conversation and therapeutic process to unfold organically.
You’ll be invited to slow down—to notice the subtleties of daily life, the signals of your nervous system, and the stories carrying your lived experience.
My approach is informed by the principle of Two-Eyed Seeing: learning to see through one eye with the strengths of Indigenous ways of knowing, and through the other with the insights of Western clinical practice. Together, these perspectives can offer a richer, more holistic way of understanding where you’ve been, where you are, and where you might go next.
Who Individual Counselling Is For
You don’t need a formal diagnosis, the "right" clinical words, or a neat plan to begin therapy.
Individual counselling with me is designed for folks navigating the expansive, complex landscapes of life—especially those who have often felt unseen or misunderstood in mainstream spaces.
This space may be a good fit if you’re navigating:
Trauma & Complex Wounds: Gentle integration of developmental, relational, intergenerational, and systemic trauma.
Depression, Burnout & Deep Fatigue: Exploring the roots of overwhelm, people-pleasing, and survival strategies while creating space for true restoration.
Grief, Endings & Life Transitions: Holding space for loss, life shifts, identity changes, and the quiet grief of walking between worlds.
Identity & Self-Exploration: Unraveling expectations, conditioning, and inherited stories to discover who you are on your own terms.
Parts Work & Inner Healing: Compassionately getting to know the different protective and wounded parts of yourself through parts work and somatic reflection.
Dreams, Altered States & Meaning: Integrating profound inner experiences, dreams, and non-ordinary states of consciousness with grounding and care.
The Flow of Sessions
Connection Call
Free 20 minute phone or video call
A relaxed, low-pressure opportunity for us to meet
I’ll share a little about my background and approach, and you’ll have space to share what you’re looking for.
You will be invited to share a little bit about what you are looking for and we will see if we might be a good fit to work together
Finding our Rhythm
In our first few sessions, we gently explore the terrain you’re navigating.
You will encouraged to schedule weekly or biweekly sessions as we are establishing our relationship.
We might talk about your daily rhythms, relationships, roles, history, values, and the sources of wisdom and community that sustain you.
There’s no expectation that you arrive with everything figured out.
These early sessions are also an opportunity for us to learn how to work together.
The Ongoing Process
Some clients stay for a few sessions, some stay for many years.
What is most important to me is that you are finding our sessions helpful.
All sessions build on the ones before.
At the beginning of each session, you will be invited to share if there is anything you would like to focus on that day.
Together, we might slow down to notice underlying patterns, tend to difficult emotions, explore parts of yourself, attend to the body, work with stories and meaning, or simply make room for what is happening in your life.
Frameworks & Approaches
I work from a holistic and integrative approach. Weaving pieces of multiple modalities together to tailor the best fit for each individual that I am working with. Below is an outline of the heart of my work
Body & Emotion
Mindful and somatic awareness, emotion-focused reflection, inner child and parts work.
Systems, Culture & Social Justice
Critical cultural and systemic perspectives, intersectionality, harm reduction, and attention to the ways larger systems shape our lives.
Story, Meaning & Identity
Narrative practices, guided imagery, active imagination, meaning-making, and ritual.
Joy, Play & Possibility
Humour, play, pleasure, connection, and making room for the parts of life that exist beyond survival.
