Registered Psychotherapist, MA
1 Endorsed
Online Only
Many teens and adults living with anxiety and/or OCD feel trapped by intrusive thoughts, constant worry, or urges they can’t seem to ignore. You may be exhausted from mental rituals, reassurance-seeking, avoidance, or checking behaviors, and frustrated that fear continues to shape your daily life. Reaching out for support can feel overwhelming in itself. I specialize in evidence-based treatment for anxiety disorders and Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), the gold-standard approach for lasting change.

You’ve spent so long trying to move on but the past still shows up in ways you can’t really explain. Maybe you feel anxious, disconnected, or exhausted from always holding it together. You might look “fine” on the outside, but inside you’re tired; tired of pretending it doesn’t all still affect you. When you’ve experienced childhood sexual trauma, your mind and body adapt in powerful ways to keep you safe. Over time, those same protective patterns such as people-pleasing, shutting down, or staying hypervigilant can start to feel like they’re running your life. You deserve to feel free of these feelings.

Before I tell you what I can help you with, I want to tell you a bit about myself. I’m a Chinese girl who came to Canada to pursue my dream of becoming a drama therapist (never heard of it? Let's just say for now it's COOL). I’m also a dancer, writer, and crazy dog lady. I’m telling you all this because I know how you feel scrolling through 765 profiles and thinking, “Oh they all seem nice, but why they all sound similar? Who can really get me?" I want to present myself as a real person so you can gather infomations to decide if you’d like to share with me things about you - that's only fair, eh?

Do you feel weighed down by anxiety, self-doubt, or the strain of a difficult relationship? You may be carrying quiet grief, moving through a major life transition, or questioning where, and with whom, you truly belong. Holding everything together can feel exhausting, leaving you longing for more peace, clarity, and a stronger sense of self. You’re not alone. Many people, especially those exploring identity, spirituality, or caregiving roles, are searching for a space that feels safe, affirming, and authentic. I offer spiritually integrated therapy in a sex-positive, LGBTQ+ affirming space where every part of you is welcome.

Life can bring unexpected challenges, periods of change, and moments when we feel disconnected from ourselves or the people around us.

Together, we create a safe, affirming space where you can pause, reflect, and make sense of what you're going through. My hope is to help you find clarity, build resilience, and move toward a life that feels authentic, meaningful, and fulfilling.

Whether you are dealing with past trauma or current triggers that keep you from moving forward, there are always ways to process what has happened and how we can work together towards a more fulfilling future. As an art therapist with a trauma-informed lens, I incorporate counselling, somatic awareness, movement, and play into my work, to enhance resiliency and promote healing. Issues I have worked on include intimate partner violence, self-harm, sexual abuse, and refugee, immigration and acculturation issues, as well as intergenerational trauma.
