As a Registered Provisional Psychologist, I have a particular interest in therapy with newcomers to Canada and clients who identify as coming from a first- or second-generation immigrant family. My practice also includes working with clients experiencing depression, general and social anxiety, grief and loss, life transitions, ADHD, emotion dysregulation, addictions, relationship concerns.
My approach is primarily informed by Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), one of the most evidence-based and researched approaches to counselling/therapy. You might also expect flexibility in therapy, as I also have training in Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT), Solution-Focused Therapy, and somatic body-mind therapies.
I see therapy as a nonjudgmental space for problem-solving, self-exploration, personal growth, making sense of experiences, learning new skills to respond to thoughts and emotions in healthier ways. I believe that everyone is capable of healing and overcoming challenges. It is my hope to get to know your life story and whatever you have to bring to therapy.

Whatever concerns you bring, it is important to me to get to know you as a person and about what has brought you to therapy. In our first session(s), you can expect to have an opportunity to share about your concern, identify what you would like to be different for you by coming to therapy, and decide on how you might like to get there together.
