About Us

Rooted in Connection, Grounded & Growing Together

Authenticity

Healing grows when we can show up as we are. Not polished, but real. We show up authentically alongside you, so together we can create a safe space for honesty, openness, and growth.

Grounded
Presence

Whether we’re sitting together virtually, or walking side by side, we bring a steady, calm presence to help you slow down, tune in, and feel safe in your process.

Relational
Safety

We know that trust is built through consistency, care, and attunement. Therapy with us isn’t a one-sided exchange, it's a collaborative relationship where you’re deeply seen and respected.

Honoring the
Journey

Freedom &
Autonomy

Connection

True healing isn’t about rushing to the finish line, it’s about honouring the journey. We value the courage it takes to look inward and embrace growth as a nonlinear process that unfolds over time.

We believe in supporting your freedom to live in alignment with your values and the autonomy to be fully yourself. Therapy with us honours your ability to make your own choices and trust that you know yourself best.

We value connection. Both the kind that helps you feel rooted in yourself and the kind that deepens your relationships with others. Therapy is a space to strengthen both.

Our Story

Serenity Ridge Therapy was built on connection. Both with our clients and with each other. We first met in graduate school during our practicum, where long consultation sessions and shared reflections revealed just how similar our values and approaches to therapy were. Both of us believe that healing happens in safe, grounded space. Where compassion, curiosity, and authenticity guide the way.

Over time, what began as classmates became a true partnership rooted in trust, laughter, and a shared vision: to help clients navigate life’s peaks and valleys with greater ease and self-understanding. Together, we bring our unique strengths and shared heart for this work to create a space where you can slow down, reconnect, and grow.
