I’m so glad you are here. New Clients are welcome, both young and old (individuals, couples, families). Let’s talk about how therapy helps. There are so many ways we can feel better, we just need to take one step. Reaching out is the first, and often clients feel better after the first session. There are no waitlists for new clients, when you are ready to begin, we begin. Every moment is an opportunity to feel better, but sometimes we lose hope and stop trying. I encourage self love and self-compassion with playfulness and creativity. “Love has the intense ability to heal the wounds from the blows that life gives us.” Sue Johnson

You feel stuck. Your nervous system is in overdrive, and no matter what you try—self-care, distractions, pushing through—it feels like something keeps pulling you back.
Maybe it’s anxiety, trauma, or depression that won’t loosen its grip. Perhaps you feel numb, disconnected, or constantly on edge. If your strategies haven't worked, it’s not because you’re not trying hard enough, it’s because your nervous system needs a different approach.

You are the decision-maker. The problem-solver. The one others depend on.
You operate at a high level, manage significant responsibility, and deliver results. From the outside, you appear composed and capable. Internally, you may feel anxious, burned out or emotionally shut down.
High performance often masks unprocessed stress, unresolved trauma, and chronic pressure. Over time, this shows up as exhaustion, disconnection, strained relationships, or reliance on alcohol or other coping strategies to take the edge off. We can help you.

“The wound is the place where the Light enters you.” – Rumi
Therapy, at its best, is a space for healing, discovery, and meaning-making. As a humanistic and existentially oriented therapist, I believe every individual holds an innate drive toward growth—even amidst pain. I’m here to walk alongside you, not to “fix” you, but to witness, support, and gently guide you back to your own inner truth.
I work with children, youth, and adults, many of whom are navigating the challenges of cultural identity, emotional overwhelm, intergenerational trauma, or difficult life transitions.

Many of the people I work with carry stories of migration, loss, and starting over. As an Arab woman who moved to Canada during my younger adult years, I understand what it means to rebuild life in a new place while holding on to language, culture, and dignity. I work especially well with clients who feel overwhelmed, unseen, or emotionally burdened, and who need a space where their experiences are understood without explanation.
