I believe in being transparent, flexible, nonjudgmental and creating safe spaces where people feel heard and connected.

I am particularly passionate about treating complex & childhood trauma, relationship issues & patterns, family dynamics, self-esteem & self-compassion, self-development & growth, and social justice.

NOTE: I am accepting new clients! (updated April 8th, 2024) - - - Hi, I'm a Registered Social Worker (RSW) in the province of Ontario. My approach focuses on helping you to understand and cope with issues such as anxiety, self esteem, and relationships. Together, we'll explore symptoms, patterns, defenses, goals, and whatever else comes up in sessions. I see therapy as an investment in yourself that can help with existing problems and lead to opportunities for the future.

Have you experienced the cycle of negative self talk that keeps you stuck in your head, or have had other experiences of anxiety and depression? Have some of these symptoms stemmed from childhood abuse or other traumatic experiences? These symptoms can keep you from enjoying the type of life you want, and luckily you can remedy them. I will support you as you explore, challenge and alter these symptoms.

Does it feel like your emotions are a burden rather than a valuable message? Are you struggling to cope with the demands of school and interpersonal relationships? Are you and your partner feeling stuck in the same negative cycle? Emotions can often feel either numb or too big, getting in the way of authentic connection to self and others. I am here to help you reconnect with your body, with your emotions, and with yourself. I work with eating disorders, anger management, self-compassion, trauma and coping with big or numbed emotions. I work especially with teens but also adults of all ages, including couples.

Now Accepting New Clients: Do you need a therapist who actually understands how trauma impacts the body and brain, and how it affects all your relationships - especially the one with yourself? Maybe you've tried therapy before, but felt like you were just venting - but you need to learn how to actually PROCESS your emotions, not just talk about them. You've tried all the things - meditation, journaling, breathwork, medication, positive thinking, you've saved all the therapy tiktoks but you're still stuck. You have felt this way for a while and are not only ready, but are fully committed to making real change.

I believe that personal health is not only the state of the body but our minds, emotions, spirituality and thoughts as well. To help ourselves, we need to feel safe and secure in order to allow ourselves to become vulnerable and therefore able to work through the discomfort of change. There are times when life gets overwhelming as it's part of the human experience. As a result of this, you may feel stressed, anxious, depressed, angry, and your usual coping strategies aren't working. It is helpful to get support from someone who can provide a safe space for you to explore the thoughts and behaviours that are causing you pain.

I am currently accepting new clients for virtual sessions (no wait time). Sometimes life doesn’t go the way we want or expect.

Please note: I have a waitlist for new clients at this time. Specialization in teens ages 12-18. I also work with adults. Do you want to make a change in your life? Find new ways to cope? Maybe I can help you. People often go to counselling when their own strategies are no longer working for them. I believe it's important to understand the root causes of certain thoughts and behaviours to develop the appropriate support. Such behaviours may include self-harm and aggression, which may mask underlying issues that I am hoping to uncover and help clients cope with.
