I am a passionate, and committed psychotherapist and Social Worker with over five years of experience connecting with clients and helping them to address and overcome their unique mental health and wellness needs. I am motivated to positively impact the clients that I serve, and I have the experience working in the fields of mental health, youth learning disabilities, and homelessness. I have a passion for providing opportunities and creating safe spaces for racialized people to openly share and discuss their lived experiences and mental health challenges within a supportive and understanding process that is free from stigma.
I utilize various approaches to my work with clients including: strength-based, client-centered approach and I cultivate a safety zone with clients that is free of judgement. I find Cognitive Behavioural Therapy effective, and I also call upon trauma-informed modalities and Motivational Interviewing in my work with clients.
As a therapist at Become Resilient Individuals (BRI) Counselling Services, I create a warm, safe, welcoming and brave space where all voices can be heard, challenges overcome, and lives transformed. The BRI Counselling mission is to ignite hope, build strengths and empower people to become more resilient in all aspects of life.
