Welcome,

 

I am an integrative therapist specializing in healing attachment, sexual, and generational trauma. My approach is holistic, heart-centred and somatic. I work internationally on Zoom and I am based in Vancouver, BC. Thank you for your bravery in being here and doing your inner work.

​

The turtle came to me as a symbol for my healing practice many years ago when I lived in the jungle of Guatemala. It embodies ancient wisdom, slow and steady steps, deep grounding, and the reminder that true safety is always found within.

 

My studies and lived experience have taken me across the world, learning from eastern healing traditions in India and Nepal, and from the shamanic lineage in Peru. I weave together modern therapeutic modalities with ancient wisdom, inspired by my own journey of recovery from eating disorders, sexual trauma, grief, and addiction. I believe that our wounds are initiations into deeper empowerment, authenticity, and purpose. I am trained in multiple modalities and guided by strong intuitive abilities. I will walk beside you and help you meet what is hidden, and connect you to your own inner healing intelligence.

​

Being introduced to psychedelics 20 years ago marked a pivotal turning point, catalyzing my recovery and sending me on a deeply transformational journey. I have since integrated the wisdom of psychedelics and sacred plant medicine into my life and practice.

​

If you are ready to live from a more embodied, compassionate, and regulated place, I would be honoured to support your path.
