With a passion for understanding the intricacies of the human mind and behavior, I embarked on a journey in the field of psychology to make a positive impact on people's lives. Throughout my career, I have had the privilege of working with diverse clients, ranging from adolescents to adults, and addressing an array of psychological concerns. My therapeutic approach is integrative, drawing from evidence-based practices such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), psychodynamic therapy, and mindfulness-based techniques. My warm and non-judgmental demeanor creates a safe space where clients feel heard, valued, and respected.

Life can offer challenges that can simply be overwhelming. It is in those times that many of us feel confused/lost or simply unheard in our relationships and struggle to communicate with our loved ones.

It could be anxiety and depression that keep you captive. If you are experiencing any of this or other life challenges I would encourage you to reach out and take a step towards well-being and meaning full life.

As a culturally informed counsellor, I have lived experience of seeking external approval and it is exhausting. Constantly overthinking, worrying about others' opinions and going down endless rabbit holes can be draining. You may be holding back so that you are not criticised. Your inner dialogue may sound like 'conflict is bad and it would get really awkward' or 'If I speak up I will upset someone or they'll ridicule me'. It is common for many women to eventually withdraw into a shell and overtime they become invisible. Sometimes it feels easier to go along with things and "appear" agreeable rather than risk offending others.
