Credentials & Experience

I am a Registered Psychotherapist (RP) and Dance Movement Therapist specializing in somatic and embodied approaches to therapy . My goal is to support individuals in reconnecting with their bodies, emotions, and relational experience.

My graduate training in Dance Movement Therapy at the National Centre for Dance Therapy in Montreal, combined with advanced certification in Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, forms the clinical foundation of my practice. These body-based therapy approaches are neurobiologically informed — drawing on polyvagal theory, interoception, and an understanding of how the nervous system holds and processes experience. I also integrate Somatic Experiencing, IFS/parts work, and Expressive Arts to meet each person where they are.

I am a professional member of the Ontario Expressive Arts Therapy Association and the Dance Movement Therapy Association of Canada,. My practice is grounded in a commitment to compassionate, evidence-based trauma therapy tailored to each person's unique journey.

Before moving into psychotherapy, I spent sixteen years in academia and health education — designing well-being programs that foster well-being through movement, somatic movement therapy, and creative expression. I have offered mindful movement practices, belly dance for self-care, and workplace wellness initiatives, bringing creativity, presence, and practical tools to support growth and resilience. I also hold a Master's degree in Dance from York University.
