As a Métis musician, music counselling therapist, educator, and embodied yoga practitioner, I bring more than 2 decades of experience in sound and therapy to create experiences that invite people to listen differently to themselves, to each other, and to the world around them.
Facilitating transformation through music is my life purpose. I’m passionate about using music and sound to support confidence, expression, connection, and well-being.
But this isn’t just something I’ve trained in with book knowledge. I’ve experienced the healing power of sound myself. As a young person, I struggled with eating disorders and social anxiety. Traditional therapy didn’t quite get to the heart of what I was experiencing. Through singing, music, and mind-body practices, I found new ways to express, release, and reconnect with myself.
As a Métis woman, music is also part of my journey of cultural reconnection. My family has always made music together, and now, with a young son, music continues to be part of our daily lives. I’m proud to be learning more about my Métis roots, stories, and ways of knowing, and exploring what those connections mean in my life and work.
These experiences with sound have shaped the work I do today as an accomplished vocalist, multi-instrumentalist, and Accredited Music Therapist (MTA). What began with finding my own voice grew into a lifelong passion for exploring how music and sound can help us reconnect with ourselves and each other.
I offer:
Whatever I’m offering, my hope is to create experiences that bring more peace, connection, and community and help us remember who we really are.
In addition to my personal healing experience, I have more than 20 years of training and experience in Music Therapy, Counselling Therapy, and Embodied Healing Arts. My professional work in music therapy has enabled me to support individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, physical pain, palliative care, eating disorders, and other life challenges.
My formal education and credentials include:
My musical journey has taken me across Canada and internationally. I’m grateful that my travels through India, Indonesia, Peru, and Australia have enriched my understanding of the healing power of music from different cultures, while also deepening my own journey of cultural reconnection.
Through travel I’ve studied with renowned teachers like Yogrishi Vishveketu, Shakti Durga, and Sri Sakthi Amma, and I’ve performed and toured with musicians like Jai Uttal, Fantuzzi, Shimshai, and Dave Stringer. I’ve been featured on CTV Morning Live and The Breakfast Show.
I’m also an accomplished recording artist, with singer-songwriter and mantra albums available online.
Driven by my personal healing journey, I am passionate about helping others feel confident, creative, authentically expressed, and proud of who they are through music and mindful practices.
I’m the founder of Sparrow Sound Therapy School, which offers sound therapy courses, as well as the Hangups to Harmony Initiative and Vocal Liberation Immersion—programs designed to help women in the health and wellness industry embrace their voice, embody their value, and empower authentic expression through sound, embodiment practices, and transformational journeys.
I am dedicated to supporting individuals to reconnect with their inner harmony and live confidently.
