I support individuals and families navigating the many shapes of grief and loss - from death and illness to non-death losses such as family estrangement, aging, and the major life transitions that change how we understand ourselves and the world around us.

My approach is rooted in compassion and respect for each person's unique experience with loss.

Drawing from a professional background in mental health and over twenty-five years as a massage practitioner and yoga teacher, I bring a holistic lens to my counselling practice. Through my work experience, and my own personal connection to grief and loss, I have learned how to listen closely to the body, and to respect the deep connection between physical, cognitive, emotional, and spiritual healing.

I integrate somatic techniques and mindfulness practices with evidence-based grief modalities such as Meaning Reconstruction and Continuing Bonds. This combination allows space to honor both the emotional and embodied dimensions of grief, while also supporting clients in finding new ways to nurture their loss and reconnect with what gives their life meaning.

I believe that grief is not something to “fix” but something to be gently witnessed, tended, and integrated.

In my practice, I strive to cultivate a steady, empathic presence where clients feel safe to express the depths of their sorrow, and a place where the full weight of loss can be acknowledged.

You are not alone on your journey. Together, we can process what has been, sit with what is, and move toward what may yet be possible. Grief touches every part of us, and healing is not about forgetting- it is about finding ways to carry both love and loss with tenderness and resilience.
