Guiding Healing with Care and Expertise

Stepping into the mental-health field was not a coincidence for me; it was a calling shaped by years of volunteering, community work, and sitting with people in their hardest moments. After working across crisis lines, community agencies, school workshops, and clinical settings, I realized something profound: this is the field I have chosen for myself, and accompanying people in their healing is one of life’s greatest privileges.

As a Psychotherapist practising in Ontario, I offer culturally responsive, trauma-informed, and evidence-based therapy for individuals and couples. My background spans multiple mental-health environments: from crisis intervention, addictions, and community care to structured psychotherapy with youth, adults, seniors and couples. Through this work, I have supported people facing trauma, anxiety, perfectionism, body dysmorphia, ADHD/AuDHD, OCD, grief, relational wounds, identity conflicts, and the deep emotional impact of bullying and high-expectation environments.

I hold a Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology and have completed extensive clinical training in CBT, DBT, SFT, IFS, EFT, somatic approaches, and brainspotting therapies. My experience includes delivering hundreds of clinical hours under CRPO-approved supervision, facilitating school workshops on identity and inclusion, supporting clients through crisis lines, and conducting mental-health and addiction assessments, all of which inform my grounded and integrative approach to therapy.
