Hi, I’m glad you found your way here.
You don’t have to be in crisis to deserve support. Maybe you’ve been feeling overwhelmed, stuck in your head, disconnected from yourself, struggling in your relationships, or just tired of carrying everything on your own. Therapy can be a place to slow things down, sort through what’s been building up, and feel a little less alone in it.
My approach is warm, down-to-earth, and collaborative. I’m not here to judge you or tell you how to live your life. I want to understand what things have been like for you, what has shaped the way you think and feel, and what you want to be different.
Together, we might explore things like anxiety, overthinking, self-doubt, relationship patterns, family dynamics, identity, boundaries, life transitions, difficult emotions, or that feeling of being “stuck” without really knowing why.
Sometimes therapy is about understanding where certain patterns came from. Other times, it’s about figuring out what to do next. Often, it’s a bit of both.
I believe people are more likely to grow when they feel safe, understood, and accepted for who they are. I try to create a space where you can show up as yourself.. whether that means talking through something heavy, figuring out what you actually want, learning how to cope with difficult emotions, or simply having someone listen without immediately trying to fix everything.
I hold a Master’s degree in Psychology and Education from the University of Toronto and am currently completing my Master of Arts in Counselling and Psychotherapy at Yorkville University. Before entering clinical practice, I spent nine years working with children, adolescents, and families in educational settings. That experience shaped my understanding of how our early relationships, families, and environments can influence the way we see ourselves and connect with others.
I have also worked as a volunteer crisis responder, which has strengthened my ability to stay calm and present when life feels especially overwhelming.
Having lived and worked across different cultural contexts, I know that mental health and healing do not look the same for everyone. Culture, family expectations, identity, community, and lived experience can all shape how we understand ourselves. I approach these conversations with curiosity and respect, without assuming there is one “right” way to heal.
How I Work
Client-Centred Therapy
You are the expert on your own life. Therapy is something we do together, at a pace that feels manageable for you.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
We can work on getting less caught up in difficult thoughts, understanding what really matters to you, and taking small steps toward a life that feels more like your own.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
We can explore the connection between your thoughts, emotions, and behaviours and build practical strategies for the things that are getting in your way.
Solution-Focused Therapy
We’ll also pay attention to your strengths, what is already helping, and the small changes that can make things feel more manageable.
Hakomi-Informed Therapy
For clients who want to go a little deeper, we can gently explore the beliefs, emotions, and patterns underneath what you are experiencing.
You don’t need to know exactly what you want to work on before starting therapy. Sometimes the first step is simply having a place to talk about what’s been going on.
My hope is that our sessions feel like a space where you can exhale, feel understood, and start making sense of things, while building the confidence and tools to move forward in a way that feels right for you.
