I Am Excited To Announce That After 4 Months, I Am Now Accepting New Clients! Mental health can be especially challenging to understand because it isn't something you can see like an external physical injury. If feelings of being stuck or out-of-control, or the sense that life is spiraling downhill somehow seem familiar, they might just stem from poor mental wellbeing. There is no need for you to suffer alone as many of these symptoms can be effectively treated using psychotherapy. We'll work together using evidence-based psychological approaches to improve your quality of life and help you get back on track.

Accepting new clients. We all struggle at one time or another, facing challenges that make us wonder where to turn. Seeking therapy can be an extremely rewarding experience as you learn to navigate these challenges and uncover your strengths while taking strides towards your ideal self. I work with clients experiencing depression, anxiety, grief, with a specialization in life transitions and perinatal mental health. My approach is empathic, and non-judgemental with a strong client focus. I utilize techniques from positive psychology, narrative therapy, CBT, as well as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy.

I completed my Honours Bachelor of Arts degree in Therapeutic Recreation through Brock University, where I supported individuals with ABI/TBI, ASD, Down Syndrome, ID and DD in establishing life skills, community involvement, social skills and identity development for the last decade. During the pandemic’s beginning, I realized the lack of mental health resources for special populations and quickly started my academic pursuits for my Masters. I work with people of all ages and abilities, being no stranger to adapting and specializing approaches to work with individuals’ unique strengths.

I follow a humanistic approach and have experience with CBT and Parts Work. I believe that regardless of the gold standard approaches, there is no one size fits all when it comes to psychotherapy. I have experience with trauma, anxiety and feeling stuck. I work with individuals, couples, youth and kids.

As a registered Social Worker, Psychotherapist and Clinical Director, I strive to deliver compassionate and empathetic support in working with the client in finding their inner strength and abilities and expanding on those for success. I believe every individual is capable to succeed and breakthrough their past current and future challenges/struggles, whatever they might be. With the focus of the client as the expert and the clinician as supportive expert, you will have the opportunity to be guided through your own strengths and abilities in moving forward and finding happiness/success through the life course.
