Do you feel like you are holding everything together on the outside, but inside you feel overwhelmed, anxious, or frustrated? Maybe you are struggling with anger, pressure, or decisions that don’t feel like you. I understand how difficult it can feel to carry all of this on your own, especially when you are used to being the one who keeps things together and feel misunderstood by those around you. My work with youth and young adults navigating anger, self-esteem, and life challenges, including those working to rebuild structure and direction during difficult transitions, informs the therapy I offer today.
My approach is grounded in CBT and DBT. I help clients understand their emotions, manage anger, improve decision-making, and build confidence to respond more calmly. As someone born and raised in Canada to immigrant parents, I understand navigating identity and living between cultures, and I aim to create a space where you feel seen and understood.
Together, we will work toward meaningful change in a way that feels manageable. As a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) and MA in Counselling Psychology student under clinical supervision, I provide a space to speak openly and feel understood without judgment. If this resonates, please reach out to book a complimentary 30-minute consultation.

I use CBT and DBT to help you understand your thoughts, emotions, and behaviours, while building practical tools to manage anger and stress. I also draw from psychodynamic and trauma-informed approaches to explore patterns and how past experiences shape your responses. Together, we will build skills that support confidence, stability, and meaningful change.
