Parenthood can be a profoundly beautiful and rewarding time. It can also be humbling, difficult, and painful. Adjusting to parenthood can bring unexpected and deeply challenging feelings such as regret, resentment, rage, anxiety, and grief. Our most closely held relationships may change, and so might our sense of identity and self-esteem. For those of us with hormonal sensitivities or ADHD, this time can be especially challenging as we navigate feelings of inadequacy when we struggle with day to day tasks, and contend with new levels of overwhelm and overstimulation due to the intense sensory experiences of parenting young children.

Do you want to grow in life? I believe that wisdom and creativity emerge through openness, curiosity, and reflection on your authentic experience. Usually when we experience difficulty in life, we do our best to adapt. We might push away our pain or attempt to mentally escape our situation. This may help in the short term, but our deeper unresolved issues often resurface in confusing or distressing experiences. We can find ourselves in patterns of feeling stuck, overwhelmed, anxious, depressed, or confused. These patterns are not just random occurrences but meaningful signals that something needs more attention.

Welcoming new clients. I provide meaningful support to thoughtful, self-aware adults, teens, and couples seeking positive change, deeper self-understanding, and a greater sense of connection with themselves and others. Many of the people I work with are navigating anxiety, overthinking, relationship challenges, life transitions, or the lingering impact of experiences that shaped how they learned to cope, relate, and protect themselves. I am a gentle and curious therapist, and I bring compassion, honesty, and a quality of stubbornness that I hope is experienced as an unfaltering commitment to your wellbeing and growth.

Having experienced the depths of grief, heartbreak, and loss of my sense of self- I understand how dark, isolating and impossible it can feel. The hopelessness, anxiety, and pain that can come from these experiences can leave us questioning so much, not knowing how or where to start with our healing. With therapy, we are able to address the complexity of our emotions and find the support we need, to grow, heal and to reconnect with ourselves and with one another. My own journey of learning to access my inner resources is what motivated me to empower and guide others on their journey of self discovery and healing.

I work with individuals, couples, and families navigating life transitions—grief, immigration, job loss, cultural pressures, stigma, or the struggle of balancing multiple identities. I also support those facing relationship struggles, infidelity, parenting challenges, and relational wounds. Together, we build a safe, trauma-informed partnership where your story is honored.

I help clients move forward by creating a safe, collaborative space where they can better understand themselves, build coping skills, and create meaningful change.

As someone diagnosed with OCD since childhood, I understand this struggle personally. I know what it's like being stuck in cycles of intrusive thoughts, repetitive rituals, endless "what ifs" and replaying scenarios over and over in your head, checking for evidence that something terrible has or may happen. I know the suffering that OCD can cause. I also know recovery is possible.

Does your mind seem to get stuck on the same questions over and over again? You know you checked the stove... but what if you didn't? You already reread the message five times... but what if it sounded wrong? You may re-check, replay conversations, seek reassurance, avoid certain situations, or repeat things until they feel “just right.” It might bring relief for a moment, but before long, the doubt comes back, and the cycle starts again. I work with individuals experiencing OCD symptoms, including contamination OCD, Relationship OCD (ROCD), checking, “just right” OCD, perfectionism, intrusive thoughts, and other presentations.

You might be feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or constantly “in your head,” even when things look fine on the outside. Maybe school, family expectations, or relationships feel heavy, or you notice yourself overthinking, striving for perfection, or being hard on yourself. You may feel stuck between who you are and who you think you should be, unsure how to slow down, set boundaries, or trust yourself. Deep down, you want relief, clarity, and a space where you can talk openly, feel understood, and finally exhale - without judgment or the pressure to have it all figured out.

I honour your story, your strengths, and the identities that shape who you are.

Your religion, spirituality, or culture has become a source of distress, or even suffering—rather than of strength. You’re struggling with feeling pressured to make choices based on cultural/religious expectations and beliefs that don’t work for you, with conflicts in interfaith or multicultural relationships, or perhaps whether to leave or join a religious community. You’ve found yourself thinking, "I don't know who I am anymore, or what I'm doing with my life." Relentless uncertainty or confusion can leave you feeling too drained to cope with life, much less enjoy it. At this point, you just want to feel "not broken."

Life can be challenging at times. Are you facing difficulties in your romantic, family, or parenting relationships? Do you feel misunderstood or unheard by your friends and family?

On paper you are the one who has it together. You hit every target, answer every message, and carry the people who lean on you. What no one sees is the cost: the Sunday dread, the racing mind at night, the fear that if you slow down it all comes apart. Burnout rarely looks like falling apart in public. For high achievers it looks like doing everything right while feeling emptier by the week, driven by perfectionism, overworking, and the quiet worry of not being enough. If you are running on fumes and cannot remember when work last felt sustainable, you are not weak and you are not failing. You are exhausted, and that makes sense.

To put it simply, I love people. And what inspires me as a therapist is the opportunity to serve others through authentic connection and collaborative insight into clients' thoughts, feelings and actions. While drawn to cognitive behavioral and Mindfulness interventions, for me, providing a safe, warm and open relational component is key. Whether working with couples, individual adults or adolescents, and issues ranging from anxiety, depression, trauma, or sexuality, intimacy and interpersonal functioning, it is a privilege to hold your confidence and assist you in your journey towards integration and wellness
