“We don't have to do all of it alone.

We were never meant to.”


I’m here to SUPPORT you.

About Me

Hi there! I'm Alison.


For a long time, I dreamt of creating a space for
people where they can feel safe and empowered
to process their past, become mindful of their
present, and carefully create their future.


Through our work together, we will navigate the
complexities of your unique journey, fostering
healing, resilience, and personal growth.


At the heart of my practice is the belief that true
well-being encompasses a holistic or bio-psycho-
sociocultural approach. It’s important to me to
connect the dots between stress and the nervous
system and the intricate interplay between mind,
body, and soul.

“The curious paradox is that when I accept
myself, JUST as I am, THEN I can change.”

CARL ROGERS

As your therapist, my intention
is to give you that opportunity
and a way to connect in a
deeper way to yourself and
your values.



I see my role as co-
collaborating with you to create
a safe and therapeutic
relationship where your
experiences can be held and
witnessed by someone who is
holding you in the highest
respect and the most
compassion.

My approach is from a
polyvagal-informed,
Acceptance and Commitment
Therapy (ACT), and
mindfulness-based perspective
but we will work collaboratively
to use the most effective
modalities for you.



Above all therapeutic
modalities, I believe it’s the
therapeutic alliance between
client and therapist that can be
the most healing experience.


WHAT to EXPECT from Talk Therapy

Sometimes, therapy is less about the answers to the questions

and more about exploring the questions themselvses.

Not sure where to start with
therapy? That’s OK. I can
support you by listening for areas
to explore. My aim is to allow you
to develop a deeper
understanding of yourself and
your experiences.


Therapy will look differently for
everyone and above all, I invite
you to show up just as you are.

If you’re new to therapy or didn’t
have a great past experience with
it, starting therapy can be
overwhelming and I commend
you for your bravery in seeking
therapy.


Therapy takes many shapes. It’s a
safe space to show up
authentically, to express yourself,
to reflect, and to grow.

I’d like to acknowledge the fact that I’m located in Mi’kma’ki, the ancestral and unceded
territory of the Mi’kmaq People, a territory covered by the “Treaties of Peace and
Friendship”. As many of the offerings within my services are referred to as “mindfulness” or
“somatic” therapies, it must be noted that these practices are rooted in Indigenous wisdom
and have been practiced by Indigenous cultures throughout the world for a millenia.


As a settler living and offering services in Mi’kma’ki territory, I strive to position myself as an ally in
the process of, not only reconciliation, but true reverence of Indigenous peoples and culture.
