Are you constantly overthinking, overwhelmed, or feeling like nothing is ever enough? If you're someone who’s driven, self-aware, and hard on yourself, anxiety may show up as racing thoughts, restlessness, trouble sleeping, or the pressure to do it all perfectly. You might struggle to set boundaries, feel disconnected from yourself, or drained by past trauma. Even small changes can feel like too much. You don’t have to face this alone—therapy can help you find calm, clarity, and balance.
I specialize in helping adults in Toronto manage anxiety, trauma, low self-esteem, and depression through trauma and anxiety therapy. Using a mix of EMDR, emotional regulation, interpersonal skills, relaxation exercises, and values work, we’ll break old patterns and build lasting tools for healing and positive change.
I understand how overwhelming anxiety, self-doubt, or past experiences can be. If you're seeking a compassionate therapist offering practical strategies, I’m here to help. Together, we’ll develop a plan to build coping skills and move forward with confidence. For more info, visit my website in the contact section. Reach out for a free 20-minute consultation.

I often use Dialectical Behavioural Therapy in my practice, equipping clients with practical tools to manage current stressors and enhance their communication skills, fostering healthier and more fulfilling relationships. I also use Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing to explore any past experiences that may be contributing to the intensity of any current distressing thoughts and feelings.
