The process of distinguishing between the root causes of pain and suffering can be complex and may evolve over time. It's crucial to maintain compassion and openness throughout therapy to support your journey toward self-growth and healing. For individuals who have experienced trauma, it's essential to acknowledge the impact of trauma on their interpretations of events. Trauma can color one's perception of reality, and addressing trauma may be a crucial step in differentiating between circumstances and interpretations. Asking for help is the most courageous thing you can do for yourself.

Supporting individuals, couples, and families seeking to foster unity, stability, and deeply connected bonds in their lives. It's all too common for individuals to become entangled in cycles of shame and blame, especially within intimate relationships. Such cycles can often lead to feelings of isolation, lack of progress, and disconnection. Overcoming personal and interpersonal challenges can feel daunting. With my vast experience, I have helped clients in addressing diverse issues such as anger management, ADHD, anxiety, depression, self-esteem, assertiveness, grief, chronic conditions, and disabilities.

As individuals, we spend our lives on a continuous expedition of self-discovery and personal growth, marked by highs and lows. Throughout our journey, therapy can become a guiding compass to build resilience and strength to overcome challenges that we may face along the way. Through embracing the transformative approach of self-acceptance, we accept our ability to cultivate positive change within ourselves and our relationships.

I believe that challenges can be beautiful, albeit deeply painful, opportunities to create a life you feel inspired to live There is hope in every situation, and often life’s greatest lessons are learned during its biggest obstacles. Life's not always easy. Hardships and transitions can blindside you and leave you feeling like you’re just trying to survive, and on autopilot. And then the questions come: Who am I? How did I get here? The life you have doesn’t reflect the one you imagined. While we can not change the past, we can choose to create meaning in our experiences, and determine how its legacy comes forward with us.

As a person of colour and member of the LGBTQ+ communities, I have lived experience and special insight into what it’s like to navigate the unique challenges that come with intersectionality. I have a background in working with sexual health, resilience, wellbeing and challenges that uniquely affect intersecting persons of colour, gender and sexuality.

Things happen. It is easy to get overwhelmed. Panic attacks, flashbacks, sadness and feelings of uncomfortable tension might become a part of everyday existence. Our attempts at coping help at first, then end up by compounding the pain. Worry, procrastination, excessive defensiveness, addictions or even perfectionism, are all examples of initially helpful coping strategies that backfire over time. We might worry about our problems daily, and yet remain unable to face them. Cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT) can help make sense of things.

I understand that for many, seeking therapy is a daunting process that can be overrun with feelings of doubt. Emotions, including anxiety, sadness, guilt, stress, overwhelmingness, and depression exist on a spectrum, and individuals who seek therapy often question whether their feelings are “deserving” of therapy.

In order to work effectively on something, we must know its root and nature. I believe that half the battle is truly understanding why our struggles are occurring in the first place. Once we know the root of the concern and the thoughts, feelings, experiences, and ideas that reinforce its existence, we can then begin to dismantle its power—brick by brick. I believe in holding space for people to tell their stories and explore parts of themselves they may have never before felt safe to share with others. It is through this brave process of standing face-to-face with every part of who we are that we can decide who we would like to be.

Goals that do not let you sleep, and then lack of sleep that does not let you work towards those goals. I know you want to take charge but are being surprised by your brain chemistry on a daily basis. Finding comfort in avoiding social interaction yet, missing your social life and spiralling into a vortex of self doubt. Are those 2 different minds in one?

Among all the things we want for ourselves, perhaps happiness tops the list for most. But life may not always turn out the way we expect, and that can hurt. There may be times when we feel stuck, angry, lost, confused, unhappy, or overwhelmed. What do we do then? In such times, I like to remind myself that “Pain is inevitable. Suffering is optional” (Haruki Murakami). This perspective offers us strength to move towards inner healing and positive change. Seeking therapy is brave work, and a beautiful way to practice self-love; when you truly love yourself, you value who you are and can grow towards the best version of yourself.
