Therapy is a collaborative journey. Together with Katie, you’ll identify your goals and co-create a roadmap towards the changes you’re seeking. With a warm and empowering approach, Katie provides a secure base for your journey.

Through person-centered and strength-based methods, she facilitates self-discovery and self-acceptance.

Throughout our lifetime, moments, feelings, and changes weigh us down. It is hard to figure out how to free ourselves of this weight and how to move forward. I view counselling as a collaborative process that requires both an effort and a desire to work toward change. My therapeutic approach stems from a postmodern and social justice lens–although I view therapy as integrative. I carry a space of safety and curiosity, knowing that you are the only person who can voice your experience. I incorporate Person Centered Therapy, Emotionally Focused Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy into my sessions. Some areas I have worked with include relationship and marriage distress, men’s mental health, anger, caregiver burnout, depression, anxiety, exploring beliefs and values, religious deconstruction, sexuality, sex and intimacy, and parental support. Some of my lived experiences include systemic racism, chronic pain, religious deconstruction, and marital transition. When I am not in the therapy room, you can find me at a local coffee shop or having a quiet night at home. I enjoy taking pictures with my film camera, painting, and spending time with those close to me. I work with teens 15+, individuals, couples, and families. My specialties include Couples Counselling and Men’s Emotional Health. I am a 2SLGBTQI+ affirming and sex-positive counsellor. I am honoured to be able to work alongside those processing what they are going through. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to schedule a consultation first.
