Are you a teen or young adult feeling overwhelmed by daily challenges and obstacles? Finding it difficult to manage school, work, relationships and personal identity? Take a moment in a safe space to explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences without any judgment. I believe that healing starts with understanding your story, your culture, and the unique strengths you bring to the world.
Whether you're struggling with behavioural issues, emotional regulation, stress or anxiety; I offer a safe, non-judgmental space to help you explore these challenges. I understand that trauma, loss, and identity struggles can significantly impact your mental health. No matter what you’ve been through, there is always hope for a brighter future.
My approach is grounded in compassion, trauma-informed care, cultural sensitivity, and evidence-based therapies designed to support self-esteem, resilience, and personal growth. Together, we will work to build healthy coping mechanisms, strengthen relationships, and create a path toward emotional healing and empowerment.
