Are you feeling exhausted, disconnected, or on edge? Whether you are a parent with an anxious child, a teen facing school pressure, or an adult facing parenting or career burnout, you don't have to carry this heavy weight alone. I help kids, teens, and adults navigate moments such as these. As a dedicated Calgary therapist (and a parent of three), I provide a warm, non-judgmental space to safely process emotions, unpack daily stressors, and develop practical tools to reclaim your peace of mind. I offer in-person and virtual sessions in 2 NW Calgary locations!
I hold a Bachelor in Community Rehabilitation and Disability Studies, and I am a Registered Social Worker with a Masters in Social Work (Clinical Specialization) from the University of Calgary. I am in good standing with Alberta College of Social Workers and I am authorized to perform Restricted Psychosocial Interventions. 提供中英文服務
Your story is unique; your therapy should be too. I draw from evidence-based therapy approaches, such as, CBT and ACT with a collaborative approach. I provide the compassionate care you deserve and the practical, real-world tools needed to navigate the peaks and valleys in life. Book a free 15-min consult with me, I look forward to connecting with you!
