About…

I know what it is like for anger to be misunderstood when there is more happening beneath it. Sometimes anger, frustration, or feeling overwhelmed is only what others see on the surface. Underneath can be anxiety, self-doubt, pressure, or emotions that are difficult to put into words. My work with youth and young adults navigating anger, self-esteem, and difficult life transitions has further shaped how I understand these emotions today.

As a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) and MA in Counselling Psychology student under clinical supervision, I help clients look beneath difficult emotions, understand where they come from, and find healthier ways to respond. Raised in Canada by immigrant parents, I understand how culture, identity, and family expectations can shape what we carry.

I draw from evidence-based approaches, including:

  • Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
  • Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT)
  • Psychodynamic therapy
  • Trauma-informed approach

These approaches help you better understand your thoughts, emotions, and patterns, while building practical tools to manage stress, regulate emotions, and make more intentional decisions. Together, we will work toward helping you feel more in control, confident, and aligned with the person you want to be.

I support clients with:

  • Anxiety and stress (feeling overwhelmed, constant worry)
  • Anger and emotional regulation (reactivity, frustration)
  • ADHD and decision-making challenges
  • Self-esteem and identity concerns
  • Life transitions and feeling stuck
  • Emotional burnout and chronic stress
