Who I Help

A woman sitting at a desk with a laptop, holding her chest as if experiencing chest pain, in a room decorated with plants and flowers.

If any of these sound familiar…

Navigating change and uncertainty about the future
Seeking relief from emotional or physical discomfort
Wanting self-compassion to feel real
Valuing growth, insight, and genuine human connection
Seeking thoughtful support for end-of-life planning, including medical assistance in dying or natural approaches

I'm glad you're here.

My role is to hold space for thoughtful exploration, clarity, and dignity.

My Practice

A woman with short brown hair, wearing a white shirt and a necklace, is sitting on a bench, smiling while writing in an open notebook with a black pen, in a cozy indoor setting decorated with plants and framed pictures.

My private practice is grounded in more than ten years of hospital-based experience supporting end-of-life decision making and spiritual health, along with extensive meditation and mindfulness training.

I support clients facing some of life's greatest transitions, as well as the everyday realities of being human.

What To Expect

We meet on a secure online platform where your comfort and privacy are respected.

All sessions are 90 minutes — so we can take our time and not feel rushed.

No matter your experience with therapy, or working virtually we'll move at a pace that feels right for you.

How to Start

A woman with brown hair in a white shirt is sitting at a wooden table, engaging in a video call on her laptop with three women visible on the screen. There is a green cup next to her on the table, and they are in a room with a window and some plants in the background.

If you feel drawn, I invite you to reach out.

We begin with a complimentary video call—a chance to meet, ask questions, and see if working together feels right.

Whether you're exploring next steps or ready for a first conversation, please be in touch.
