We all have different life stories where losses, pain, struggles and setbacks paint part of our story plots. Our life stories say more than the fact of what happened, they speak to us who we are, who we can be and guide our future as we make sense of our life experiences. When we get stuck in our life, we sometimes need a safe place and a reliable person to hear and to understand us as we work our way out of the dark tunnel. We can feel validated and accompanied in this collaboration that fosters an honest and open dialogue. I do hope to be your companion on your healing journey.

As a queer, fat, person of colour, I am passionate about working with marginalized individuals. I know how hard it is to connect when your identity is questioned or misunderstood by service providers. I therefore work predominantly with folks who are racialized, 2SLGBTIQ, neurodivergent, and/or disabled. Often, those I work with have been diagnosed with borderline personality disorder; experience identity-based trauma; struggle with relationships, emotional regulation, or impulsivity; want greater self-awareness or understanding; want to feel a sense of belonging, connection, and safety; or generally, want more joy in their lives.

As a registered psychologist, I have extensive training in treatment of family/children's mental or emotional health issues with a focus on the brain neurology. My work has been really effective in the field of child's Neurodevelopmental disorders such as ADHD, ASD, OCD, learning disorders, as well as developmental trauma and process addiction. I am genuinely sensitive to cultural/individual differences, therefore, I integrate a variety of techniques to help each individual to discover their internal healing elements that have been underestimated for different reasons.

Society used to look at mental health issues as something to be ashamed of, but we don't have to any more. Mental health, like physical health, is something that absolutely everyone must work at to feel good. It's rewarding work, but it isn't always easy. Traumatic events or even just daily struggles can sometimes lead to addictions, poor relationships with others, or strong feelings of disconnection and worthlessness. The resources we need to stay balanced, to grow, and to feel whole are within each of us, but sometimes we have trouble finding them on our own.

The quote from William Shakespeare, "give thy negative thoughts no tongue" is an analysis of our internal thoughts process; what we believe, we become. Your internal held beliefs do not have to define your life. I can help you change your thoughts so you can change your world. Your internal thoughts have caused your life to spiral out of control. You may be struggling with a list of things including: depression, anxiety, substance abuse and/or divorce. Its time to change your thinking and bring your potential into focus.

I like to practice in collaboration with my clients. I strongly believe that building our relationship allows you to feel safe and comfortable, and for me to hold you accountable. I believe that you are the expert! Therapy is an investment in you! If you are motivated to improve, I'm confident that we can identify and work toward developing the tools, coping skills, and understanding that will help you be your best. I find helping people discover their self-worth, set boundaries, and navigate life transitions, particularly from post-secondary education into the work force, very rewarding.

You do not have to go through those overwhelming life challenges alone and be feeling worthless, hopeless, pessimistic, or a failure in life. You are bigger than your problems and challenges! Let's collaborate and unpack your challenges, leveraging on your hidden strength. The adage that "Life Happens" is very true. I believe you are the expert of your lived experiences and you know best what you need to navigate your challenges. Let's go on this healing journey together, to be better positioned to achieve your healing goals. Healing is possible if we work as a team.

I deeply enjoy working with people from all different backgrounds, stages and walks of life. With compassion and insight, I provide a space where clients feel that they are heard, cared for, and validated. I believe that people are more than the challenges that they face.
