I am passionate about supporting neurodivergent clients, in particular those who are ADHD, autistic or AuDHD. I work from a neurodiversity-affirming lens, which means embracing and valuing all neurotypes, and rejecting understandings of neurodivergence as a set of deficits to be treated. It means supporting clients through self-exploration and self-compassion to do the same. As a queer identifying psychologist, I’m also passionate about offering affirming and inclusive care to members of the 2SLGBTQIA+ community. I care deeply about offering intersectionality-informed and culturally sensitive care, and I am inclusive of all identities and expressions.

I have always felt things intensely, cared deeply for others, and carried a profound sense of curiosity about people. This led me to clinical psychology, where I now have the privilege to support people in making sense of themselves, others, and their internal and external experiences. If we work together, I want therapy to be a space where you feel heard, understood, and supported, a place where you are met with compassion and not shame, and a place where you can process the often messy intricacies of life in a way that feels present, patient, and accepting.

Credentials and Clinical Background: I am a Clinical Psychologist (supervised) registered with the CPBAO. I hold a doctorate in Clinical Psychology from the University of Prince Edward Island. Prior to that, I earned bachelor’s degrees in psychology from St. Francis Xavier University and Acadia University (Honours). During my doctoral degree I completed residency at Waypoint Centre for Mental Healthcare, a leading forensic and mental health facility specializing in comprehensive inpatient and outpatient care. Further, I have experience providing assessment and individual therapy in primary care settings, gender affirming care clinics, psychiatric hospitals, university counselling centres, and private clinics. My research focuses on rates of sexual assault experienced by sexual minority women, women’s experiences with relational and domestic violence, and understanding queer women’s, trans women’s, and nonbinary individual’s experiences of trauma.
