Do you operate at a high level but still find yourself derailed by emotion-driven decisions, self-criticism, or the pressure to perform? You’re not alone. As a trauma-informed therapist working with traders, executives, and business owners, I help identify and shift the unconscious patterns that keep showing up under stress. Using evidence-based, results-oriented approaches, I create a focused, confidential space to strengthen emotional regulation, increase resilience, and help you execute consistently on what actually matters.

Deciding to make a change requires lots of courage. It requires even more courage and effort to take the first steps towards it. And the fact that you are here reading these lines means that you have already started your journey and I can assist you with the rest. I have several years experience of working in the mental health area and a vast theoretical knowledge of multiple modalities in therapy. In addition to my private practice I also work in the Family Services York Region (FSYR) as a psychotherapist where I work with individuals (including adults, youths, and children), couples, and families and run various groups.

Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass; it's about learning to dance in the rain. Sometimes happiness feels brief, while most moments bring challenges: family issues, academic pressure, relationships, marriage, parenting, career stress, illness, grief, and life transitions. When facing these hurdles, do you find yourself pulled by conflicting inner voices, longing for a place to be truly seen and heard? Fate may test us, but perhaps it also offers a chance to grow. I’m here to provide a safe and warm space where we listen to those voices, understand our needs, and find meaning in our experiences.

This may be your first step towards seeking support, or perhaps you’re seeking a change in therapeutic approach.

Struggling with depression, anxiety, interpersonal challenges, or feeling caught between cultural expectations and your own identity?

Taking responsibility for ourselves and our experience of life begins with embracing our trials and tribulations, and facing them head on. This fosters a connection with the source of our power that builds resilience to manage whatever may come. Developing the resourcefulness required to fashion a life that is fulfilling and supportive of our overall well-being is an ever-evolving process, and can be more clearly navigated with the help of a trusted professional. Using a person-centred, culturally-, and trauma-informed approach, I aim to empower people to improve their quality of life through organic and systematic processes.

I am here to encourage vulnerability and create an environment of trust where you can untangle complexities, confront obstacles, and celebrate successes. Your voice is cherished, your concerns are valued, and your dreams are honoured. Through evidence-based techniques and a holistic perspective, we can work together to better equip you with practical tools to navigate challenges and cultivate resilience.

No matter where your go-getter attitude, professional career path and success have taken you, from the inside out you feel preoccupied, barely keeping yourself taped and glued together, worried at what point you will just fall apart. Scared to show vulnerability and let your guard down. People know you to be all put together, but you just feel like you are holding on by the last strand. People don't know how much is going on inside of you; you are desperate for change but feel so overwhelmed by emotion that you just can't figure out how. If you are ready for change and transformation to get where you really want to go, I can help!
