I practice from a culturally sensitive and trauma-informed perspective.
NOTE: I am currently on an extended leave of absence, and will return to work in July. Are you in need of more insight into your personal or relational struggles? Maybe you feel like you're stuck in a loop of destructive behaviors, and don't know how to get out. Maybe you notice distance or tension in your relationship, and need to make sense of it all, and become connected again. Maybe you are ready to unpack and process unresolved trauma, and need the support of a professional in a safe and trusting environment.

I work from a culturally sensitive framework, taking into consideration what you would like to bring to the table.
What are you hoping for? What's on your mind? Life is full of challenges and changes. Life transitions can get messy, making decisions is difficult, and choosing yourself is sometimes the hardest thing you can do. I imagine if you're reading this, maybe you feel curious, or maybe scared, or stuck. I could name a million feelings and still not strike the right one, but I am here to listen as you share. Naming those feelings, and recognizing the behaviours and thoughts that keep you going back to them, is part of the process we could work on together. Therapy is not linear and it can feel puzzling. Taking the first step is never easy.

I work with families, individuals, couples, and groups to provide support for relationship turbulence, grief, anxiety/depression, and life transitions, including immigration struggles. Clients may come to therapy feeling overwhelmed by stress, sadness, anger, fear, self doubt, substance use, shame, and a diminished sense of self or worth. I help them realize that adverse situations do not define them. As we work together, they gain the skills to overcome obstacles and to build positive, reciprocal relationships of value and mutual respect.

What if you could live a life without such intense emotional pain? To the outside world, you seem to be functioning well. Maybe you put on a smile and go through the motions to get through everyday life, but your inner world tells a different story. Each day may feel like a struggle because low mood or memories from the past seem to be a dark cloud that follows you everywhere you go. With specialties in trauma and PTSD, depression, and addiction, I understand that behaviours are often a way of coping with intense pain. My goal is to help you feel like you can cope with life again.
