Thank you for being here! I know reaching out for support can be difficult, and I want to acknowledge your courage in taking this important step. I believe in our inner strength and capacity for healing, and whether you are feeling overwhelmed by a change in your life, looking to process past traumas, or want to reclaim your power from various challenges, I would be honoured to support you through this journey. Together, we’ll collaboratively identify your goals for therapy, learn practical skills, and work through any uncomfortable emotions or experiences that may come up for you.

I have extensive experience working with a diverse clientele within academic, career & mental health capacities. With a particular passion for bridging the gap between mental health & career development, my practice specializes in supporting women (youth & adults) through a variety of topics including burnout, trauma, and life transitions.

Thank you for considering me as a resource to support you! I know life can be incredibly challenging at times, and I am here to navigate through this healing journey with you.
