I am a bicultural therapist and my clients relate to me because they look for someone who appreciates what it's like to be inside of cultural and generational divides. I have over 5 years of experience working with professionals, parents, and students on issues related to trauma, immigration, family dynamics, and unacknowledged grief. Unacknowledged grief is what that doesn't fit our society's expectations: grief of relocating, of surviving disasters, of change. What makes me different from most therapists, is that I am passionate about helping people navigate the "other" relationships: friendships and workplace dynamics.

Drawing from various therapeutic theories, including EMDR, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), emotionally focused therapy ( EFT), somatic therapy, meditation, mindfulness, and inner child work, I provide a unique blend of support to help my clients identify and release the obstacles that are holding them back.
Do you spend a lot of time in self doubt, self-criticism, and self sabotage – never feeling like you're are enough?
The antidote is simple. It’s self-love. Self-love is the foundation on which a meaningful, healthy, and joyful life is built.
Using an integrated mind-body approach that incorporates EMDR, somatic therapy, parts work, and mindfulness, I help my clients shift old patterns, beliefs, and behaviour, to step into their potential with strength, clarity, and confidence. This includes using the transformative power of laughter to get out of the ‘stuck-ness’ and into a place of positivity – where all the magic can happen.
