I believe people desire to grow, and talking with an empathetic, supportive clinician helps them to process thoughts and feelings. This in turn helps clients to gain new insights, perspectives, and understandings, leading to a healthier mental/emotional existence. When individuals get sidetracked by life’s challenges, those challenges need not be faced alone. I am able to work with clients to collaboratively inspire hope and gain skills needed to move forward. Often times, it is "adding a tool to the toolbox" that helps us effectively cope and navigate crisis and personal problems.

My ideal client is a high-performing woman or professional navigating anxiety, stress, trauma, or burnout despite her outward success. She’s ambitious and capable but feels overwhelmed by life’s demands and disconnected from her true self. She desires to break free from survival mode, rediscover her identity, and embrace the bold, courageous woman she was created to be.
She may be a parent striving to raise children with strong values, a wife seeking deeper connection in her marriage, or an individual searching for clarity and purpose. Whatever her story, she’s ready to thrive—not just personally and professionally, but spiritually

As someone who has experienced the rich, and at times surprising, benefits of therapy in my own life, it is my privilege to walk with others as they seek growth, healing, and positive change. While I work with individuals with various concerns, I have a particular passion for opening space to process significant, possibly traumatic, life experiences that impact one's sense of self, relationships, and general well-being.

We all have our strengths and do what we can to deal with life’s many challenges. But sometimes we feel anxious, hopeless, depressed or confused, and need to speak confidentially, without feeling judged - about the very personal things going on in our lives. As a psychologist who gets that it all starts with kindness, clients find me compassionate, down-to-earth, and relatable - a trusted, supportive listener who knows how to help. You’ll always get straight-up answers and full transparency. No two minds are alike, which is why I draw from several science-backed therapy methods to customize therapy for people I work with.

I do not believe in pathologizing individuals based on their diagnoses, symptoms, or challenges. Instead, I approach therapy as a collaborative and compassionate process, recognizing that healing happens within the context of trust and connection. To support this, I offer a no-commitment consultation to explore whether I am the right fit to support you on your journey. The most effective therapy is built on a secure and trusting relationship, and I deeply value the opportunity to walk alongside those who invite me into their healing process.

I help people who are struggling with life transitions (e.g. job/ career, family, relationship, loss) and recovery (e.g. trauma, depression, stress/anxiety, isolation).
I practice by forming a working relationship with you based on careful listening, respect, and trust. I help you find dignity and understanding of your thoughts, beliefs, behaviours, body reactions, and emotions. We work together to generate new perspectives on what may hold you back and start taking action towards your goals. For anxiety-provoking or traumatic events, I practice Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR) and follow structural dissociation theory to maximize the benefits of EMDR.
