I believe wellness emerges through connection. Trust, safety, and authenticity come before titles or credentials. We meet people where they are, without judgement, without hierarchy, and without forcing a predetermined path.

While my own ancestry includes Irish and Scottish  and Mohawk roots, my work has been shaped by teachings received with permission, mentorship, and reciprocity. I honour Indigenous knowledges without appropriating them, and we commit to practising in ways that respect sovereignty, Nationhood, and lived experience.

I actively challenge systems that perpetuate racism, lateral violence, and cultural erasure. My philosophy encourages unlearning harmful narratives, validating lived truths, and supporting pathways back to identity, agency, and community strength.

Every person carries a story that matters. I create space for community to explore grief, trauma, joy, identity, and the complexities of life using approaches that are relational, narrative, creative, and experiential.

Healing should not be a privilege. I strive to offer services that are flexible, accessible, and community-centred, while respecting individual boundaries, confidentiality, and the diverse realities people carry.

I support wellness through emotional, mental, physical, spiritual, and cultural dimensions. Whether through one-on-one therapy, group circles, art-based practices, or community training, I hold space for the whole person—not just the symptoms.

Individual Counselling

Therapeutic support that centres identity, wellness, trauma, and life transitions. Sessions honour client voice, deepen self-understanding, and integrate Indigenous teachings, creative methods, and evidence-informed approaches that promote regulation, grounding, and clarity.

Menopause Support

Counselling for those navigating perimenopause, menopause, and post-menopause. Sessions explore emotional shifts, physical changes, identity transitions, and nervous-system impacts. Care is culturally aware, validating, and grounded in both education and embodied practice to support balance and wellbeing.

High-Conflict Relationship Support

Support for those managing challenging or high-conflict dynamics. Sessions focus on communication patterns, boundaries, co-parenting strain, and emotional regulation while centring safety, clarity, and empowered decision-making.

Group Sessions
Small, intentional groups that foster connection, empowerment, cultural learning, and community care. These circles offer space for reflection, storytelling, and shared growth, making them well-suited for workplaces, youth programmes, and community agencies.

Art Therapy

Creative, expressive, and land-connected therapeutic work that supports emotional processing, grounding, and identity exploration. Art-based sessions meet clients where they are, offering gentle pathways for children, youth, and adults to engage with their healing.

Workshops & Training

Culturally informed, experiential learning opportunities for teams, agencies, and communities. Topics include Indigenous wellness, lateral kindness, anti-oppressive practice, and staff development. All sessions are created in partnership with a vetted knowledge carrier to ensure integrity and respect.

At White Cedar Healing, my approach is rooted in relational, culturally aware practice that honours the whole person—mind, body, spirit, and community. Healing is not something done to someone, but something created together. Each session, training, and circle is shaped through compassion, collaboration, and a deep respect for every person’s lived experience and autonomy.

I work from a trauma-informed lens that prioritises safety, choice, voice, and empowerment. I support clients in understanding their nervous system, deepening emotional regulation, and reclaiming a sense of stability and grounding.

My work is informed by decolonial practice: challenging harmful narratives, validating lived realities, and creating space that resists lateral violence. While my own ancestry includes Irish and Scottish roots, my practice has been shaped by mentorship from respected knowledge-keepers and Elders. I integrate teachings with permission, respect sovereignty, and avoid making claims that are not mine to hold.

Relationships are at the core of healing. Whether we are working one-on-one or in circle, I prioritise connection over perfection. I believe that healing happens in relationship—with others, with land, with culture, and with ourselves.

No two people heal the same way. My approach blends clinical frameworks with creative, narrative, and land-connected practices. This may include grounding exercises, story work, art-based methods, regulation tools, cultural teachings shared with permission, and space for personal or intergenerational healing.

I believe every person carries strength, knowledge, and the capacity for growth. Together, we identify what is working, what feels heavy, and what possibilities exist. I walk alongside clients as they deepen their resilience and reconnect with their own inner guidance.

My practice centres accessibility, transparency, and collaboration. I work with clients to determine what feels meaningful, sustainable, and aligned with their goals. This includes flexible approaches, client-led pacing, and open communication throughout our work together.

At its core, my approach honours story, identity, culture, and the quiet strength people bring with them.
Healing is not linear—but you don’t have to walk it alone.
