Located in the north west corner of downtown Calgary out of Riverwest Therapy Collective, a space where mental health practitioners have joined in private practice to collaborate, (un)learn and grow.
Be curious, not judgemental.

Soul-Deep Healing
Whether you’re grappling with exhaustion, confusion, brain fog, memory lapses, chronic pain, agitation, numbness, or all of it at once, trauma seeps into every corner of our lives.
At Beyond Therapy Co, I’m here to meet you right where you are. We all have unique journeys, shaped by our diverse experiences, beliefs, and perspectives. Society tells us that trauma only counts if it’s a major life event, dismissing the rest as just "how things were." But let’s be real—that’s just not true. Trauma isn’t defined by an event, but rather the person’s experience of it. And if I know one thing it is this:
Life doesn’t have to be this hard always, and you don’t have to feel stuck anymore.
Unresolved experiences are etched into our bodies, creating a blueprint of what to fear, what to be cautious about, and what to watch for. Our nervous system remembers. And because of this, you are carrying a weight of something that has happened to you - are you ready to put it down?
(without the woo-woo shit)
TDLR; My clients come to me feeling like they're stuck in a never-ending state of disconnectedness. Their motivation levels are somewhere between "meh" and "I know life could be better, but how do I even start?" They’re not fazed by my tattoos, the occasional swear word, or my interest in spirituality. What they are ready for is some serious, deep work. Our sessions will be a delightful mix of laughter, tears, and existential exploration, with you firmly in the driver’s seat—hopefully with a GPS this time.
working with me
My approach involves a blend of exploring the past and present while curating a future you can look forward to. Whether you're a self-proclaimed perfectionist, A-type, OCD, or people pleaser, I'm here to help you:
Tame those intrusive thoughts that don’t seem to shut up
Kick perfectionism to the curb
Build self-worth that isn't based on other people's opinions
Loosen that death grip on control
Ditch the misplaced anxiety and expand your world again
We can use terms like trauma, anxiety, depression, etc as ways to describe what we’re experiencing, but at a deeper level it comes down to a more existential question – does your life feel meaningful, purposeful, fulfilling?
disclaimer: sessions may or may not include a mix of laughter, tears, cussing and occasional dark humour.
If you struggle with this question, don’t mind being challenged, deep discussions and personal growth, we should talk.
What’s your flavour of ‘stuck’?
Low energy,
can't adult today.
(or any day)
Perfectionism is your middle name.
Intrusive thoughts are your unwelcome BFFs.
"I'm fine."

Carrying trauma like it's an Olympic sport.
