I’m passionate about empowering athletes to build mental resilience, overcome performance anxiety, and achieve a healthy balance between sport and life. My work focuses on helping athletes break down mental barriers, cope with injuries, and navigate identity transitions, including retirement from sport.

From a young age, sports have been central to my life. I started playing soccer at age four and have played competitively throughout my youth and adulthood. I’ve also been involved in various other sports, including tennis, golf, flag football, basketball, swimming, track and field, running, and bodybuilding at the recreational and competitive levels. These experiences have shown me the integral role of psychology in athletic performance and overall well-being. Inspired by a lifetime in sports, I pursued a Doctorate in Psychology focusing on sport and performance psychology to deepen my professional expertise to better support athletes.

Alongside my work with athletes, I have substantial experience supporting individuals impacted by trauma. Through roles at organizations like the Sexual Assault Centre of Edmonton, YWCA Edmonton, Catholic Family Services Calgary, and the Worker’s Compensation Board in Edmonton, I’ve developed a compassionate approach to trauma counselling, dedicated to helping individuals grow from hardship and strengthen their well-being.

Beyond work, I have a passion for travel. My global experiences have exposed me to diverse cultures, lifestyles, and approaches to healing. This exposure has deepened my understanding and respect for each client’s unique journey, enhancing my practice with a lens of cultural awareness and openness.
