I am committed to changing the narrative around movement and our stories about our bodies. Through my unique integrative movement approach, I guide clients to move beyond their perceived limits around exercise (i.e., injuries, chronic pain, fear of activity, etc.) Over the years, I helped hundreds of humans build solid strength for life by improving their movement patterns, habitual behaviors, relationship with their breath, mobility and flexibility, weaknesses, and nervous system capacity. I believe our body has magical powers to heal and restore when we are willing to do the deep work.

My expertise lies in supporting clients with the emotional impacts of experiencing various forms of racism and/or ableism in their lives. I also take an intersectional approach and recognize how other factors such as gender identity, sexual orientation, class, etc. can intersect with racism and/or ableism. I use different counselling modalities such as cognitive behavioural therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy or narrative therapy in my approach to supporting clients.
