Hi, I'm Kait. I was born and raised in Thunder Bay and continue to call this place home. I became a counsellor because of my own lived experience as a trauma survivor. Having been on the other side of the counselling equation as a client, I understand how difficult it can be to find a therapist that you naturally click with. I pride myself on being the same person in-office as you would meet on the street. I value authenticity and am very much a “what you see is what you get” kind of person. I am more than willing to be a compassionate ear, but I am most interested in equipping you with the skills you need so that you no longer need to rely on therapy to get through. My goal is to help you become as self-sufficient as possible by exploring CBT and DBT-based skills to help you address emotional distress, life transitions, or relationship struggles.

When I'm not at work, you can find me on the mats practicing Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (which I've done for the past 8 years), spending time outside camping and hiking, or hanging out with my pet rabbit. I love spending time with family and friends, particularly if it involves exploring the local restaurant scene. My mom says I swear too much, but I call that a natural byproduct of growing up in Westfort. 

I look forward to meeting you and working together!
