When working with children, I offer Sand Therapy, Play Therapy and Art Therapy.
I'm a Registered Clinical Counsellor who loves working with children, teenagers, adults and parents toward a fulfilling life that is envisioned by them. I believe that seeking counselling is one of the most important decisions that people can make for themselves and their loved ones. Embarking on a journey of self growth and healing can be difficult; yet, I know firsthand that the results are worthwhile. Most clients work with me to better manage stress, anxiety, depression, marital challenges, family conflicts, phobias and ADHD.

As a Certified Level 2 IFS, Trauma, and Art Therapist, I provide more than talk therapy; I hold space to move through parts that feel overwhelmed, anxious, or in emotional and physical pain.
I invite highly sensitive individuals, those wishing to explore neurodiversity, parentified children, people navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, stress of immigration, legacy burdens, or parenting challenges to receive support and practical tools. Our work is deep, creative, and often enjoyable—healing can be a truly fascinating and liberating journey.

I believe that psychotherapy in essence is a collaborative process that aims to increase psychological well-being and reduce emotional pain, loneliness and languishing which are ever present in today's world. At the heart of this process, is the positive healing relationship that develops between an individual, a couple or a family, and the therapist. I offer clients a non-judgemental, empathic and queer affirmative space where they learn to identify and tolerate their emotions, articulate appropriately their needs to significant people in their life and work on breaking away from toxic negative cycles.

Welcome! I specialize in supporting tweens, teens, and young adults of all genders. I am happy to work with adults too. To me, counseling begins with safety, empathy, and trust. Sometimes people need a non-judgmental ear, sometimes they need more specific approaches like EMDR, DBT, CBT, or coping skills. Either way, therapy is collaborative and customized to meet your unique needs, hopes, and goals. Challenges I specialize in include ADHD, FASD, trauma, anxiety, depression, child and teen-related issues, school and academic issues, communication, and the general complications that life can throw at us! I look forward to meeting.

My ideal clients are thoughtful, self-aware individuals who feel stuck despite their best efforts to move forward. They may be navigating anxiety, burnout, relationship challenges, or major life transitions, and often come in feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or unsure of themselves. Many are used to “holding it all together” on the outside while struggling internally. What brings them here is a desire for something deeper than quick fixes—they want clarity, relief, and a more meaningful connection to themselves and others.

I help clients manage anxiety, stress, and trauma through a creative blend of art therapy, art journaling, and talk therapy.
Many capable, self-aware adults struggle with anxiety that shows up most in relationships — overthinking, people-pleasing, fear of abandonment, or feeling “too much” and yet not enough. I specialize in attachment-focused therapy for those who want to understand why they react the way they do and how to feel more secure. Together we calm the nervous system, untangle old patterns, and build lasting emotional security so you can experience steadier, more connected relationships — including the one you have with yourself.

Calling all creative, self-aware humans who struggle with relationships. You’ve been to therapy before, and on a logical level you understand yourself quite well. You’ve made sense of your past, but something is still missing... You still feel stuck in your mind with these nagging critical voices, disconnected, ruminating, trying to "fix" or outrun the discomfort. You're not quite sure how to "sit with your feelings" but you're willing to give it s try... You are ready to slow down and develop a stronger relationship with yourself and others. You're ready to live your life to the fullest and finally come back home to yourself.

Do you miss the connection and friendship you once had with your partner? Are you tired of feeling anxious, angry or tired all the time? You may feel overwhelmed, frustrated, or stuck because you think you’ve tried everything, but nothing sticks. Do the overwhelming feelings cause you to shut down because you don't know where to start? You want change, but bringing a therapist into the fold makes you uneasy as you may have learned that therapy lacks real connection. If REAL connection matters to you, I’m your human. I want to help you to achieve the life changes you are looking for while enjoying the process as much as possible.

Art is a powerful tool for modulating anxiety, grief, and depression.
Art is an amazing tool for accessing the unconscious, beyond talk therapy. Art, when coupled with compassion and listening, can address many psychological issues, including trauma. My skills in working with art and trauma include a sensory motor approach.
