Do you find yourself overthinking, feeling overwhelmed with emotions, or struggling to cope with life stressors? Perhaps you're navigating anxiety, a major life transition, relationship challenges, or feeling stuck in patterns that no longer serve you. I work with teens (16+) and adults of all ages to better understand these challenges, build practical coping strategies, and create meaningful change. My approach is often described as warm, collaborative, and tailored to your unique needs. My aim in therapy is to help you move toward greater balance in your life, emotional well-being and skillful coping.
I work with people who are experiencing anxiety, OCD, stress, perfectionism, emotion regulation difficulties, self-esteem concerns, life transitions and BPD. I have a particular interest in supporting young adults and post-secondary students as they navigate academic pressures, anxiety, stress, identity development and changing relationships.
Taking the first step is often the hardest part, and I recognize the courage it takes to reach out for support. Our first session together will be a combination of getting comfortable in therapy, learning about one another and exploring what has brought you to therapy. I would be honoured to walk alongside you and help navigate the path ahead.
