somatic Psychotherapy
I offer one-on-one psychotherapy sessions for adults (18+ years old) via video or phone across Canada and in-person in Treaty 1/Winnipeg.
My approach to therapy draws upon my clinical training in humanistic, existential-integrative, psychodynamic, and somatic psychotherapy. Our sessions are interactive and aim to honour the pace that feels right for you.
In particular, somatic psychotherapy or “somatics” is a holistic approach that can help you access a deeper level of awareness and agency where transformative healing can happen in the present moment.
While my somatic approach does not involve direct touch between therapist and client, I will guide you to gently notice your body’s sensations, impulses, and cues to learn more about your unique responses and needs in daily life, relationships, or within your own being.
Areas of focus
I enjoy working with my clients on issues related to:
PTSD, C-PTSD, childhood trauma
Relationships, communication
Racialized trauma, migration, diasporic experiences
Gender non-conformity, 2SLGBTQ+ identity and sexuality
Shame, rage, dissociation
Self-esteem, imposter syndrome
Intergenerational trauma, resilience, grief
Neurodivergence (primarily ADHD and autism spectrum)
Limits to scope of practice
As a Registered Psychotherapist in independent private practice, there are limits to my capacity and scope of practice, and therefore I do NOT provide the following:
suicide and psychosis intervention services
24/7 or immediate emergency distress response
text/phone messaging
therapeutic support outside of scheduled sessions
medication prescriptions
formal assessments and diagnosis
Rates & Location
Session Rate
My rate is $155 CAD per hour/session. I do not currently offer sliding scale rate sessions.
As a Registered Psychotherapist (CRPO #10420), my psychotherapy sessions may be eligible for coverage under health insurance plans that cover psychotherapy. However, please refer directly to your health insurance provider to confirm eligibility for coverage, as I cannot verify or guarantee coverage.

I offer in-person sessions at my office in Winnipeg, as well as video or phone sessions.
