You Don’t Watch for Red Flags—You Listen for Them.
i identify as human first, psychotherapist second.as a human, i am as slow-paced as the meditations i guide, an alliteration enthusiast, a humble activist, a wondering romantic, and a deeply attuned feeler. as a psychotherapist i am described as fiercely compassionate, gracefully provocative, a passionate pattern finder, and curious like a cat. i like holding the messy stuff, the taboo, and honouring the magic within our bones.i come to the psychotherapy profession with transparency. as a human, i have a coloured history of both triumph and trauma. performing with the royal moscow ballet, wearing the crown of miss canada, and a brief cameo on seasme street were the highlights the world saw; what was hidden during my youth were my experiences of sexual exploitation and violence. my experiences of trauma have informed my academic educational choices. the areas of expertise i possess, as a psychotherapist are where i have personally alchemized my pain into peace. my personal experience leads me to know that healing is not linear but circular. for this reason, i am honest in my therapeutic offerings. i am not a ‘quick’ fix psychotherapist because, as a human, ‘quick’ fixes did not offer me lasting healing.my human experiences of healing mean that as a psychotherapist, i offer long-term psychotherapy rooted in the principles of jungian depth psychology, relational somatics, intersectional feminism, anti-oppressive ideologies, and interpersonal neurobiology.
