Practicing clinically since 2008

You may be navigating growth, transition, or leadership—and sensing there’s a deeper level of alignment, clarity, and sustainability available to you.

I specialize in supporting leaders, entrepreneurs, and professionals who are looking to deepen self-awareness, strengthen relationships, and lead in a way that is both effective and aligned with their values.

Through an integrative approach that blends clinical counselling, executive coaching, and nature-based practice, I support you in working with both your inner world (patterns, nervous system, origin story) and your outer world (relationships, leadership, and decision-making).

My work is grounded in a triple bottom line approach—people, planet, and profit—and guided by Akoya’s six core frameworks:

🌿 Nature-Informed Leadership

✨ Origin Story & Purpose

⚖️ Work–Life Balance

🔍 Deep Self-Inquiry

📊 The Human Bottom Line

🔬 The Science of Nature, Coaching & Therapy

I offer 1:1 therapy and coaching, immersive retreat experiences, and clinical consultation and coaching circles for counsellors and integrative practitioners—creating spaces for both personal and professional growth, connection, and sustainable impact.

In addition, I offer clinical consultation and coaching circles for counsellors and integrative practitioners—a dedicated space for professional reflection, community, and ongoing development in the work of supporting others.
