Hi, I’m Sam (she/her). I am passionate about working with teens and adults who are navigating life transitions, exploring their identity, or who have other complex life experiences that they would like to explore.

My approach is to meet every individual where they are at, and to use a blend of techniques that help you to gain the most from your time with me. I will always begin with a collaborative, person centered, and trauma informed approach. I also like to pull from evidence based practices such as Narrative, Existential, and Solution-Focused therapy.

I am currently completing my Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology at Yorkville University. For much of my life I have been an educator and case manager, primarily working with neurodiverse children and young adults. I have a lot of experience working with those with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), ADHD, and other diagnoses.

I am also someone who navigated coming out as queer as an adult. I hope to be able to cultivate a supportive, safe space for those exploring their identity and those who identify as 2SLGBTQI+ no matter where you are on your journey or your age.

Cultural Identities/Lived Experience: Queer, adopted, migrant
