Hello! My counselling approach focuses on helping you feel more secure and less anxious in your relationships. Focusing on attachment theory, IFS, EMDR, emotion regulation, solution-focused strategies, enneagram, mindfulness, interventions to help you create an empowered relationship with yourself, your partner, friends and family. I specialize in relationship anxiety, setting boundaries, communication skills, family issues, anxious, disorganized and avoidant attachment dynamics, conflict resolution, break ups, career changes, building self esteem & confidence. I believe in empathy matched with concrete strategies to move forward.
I support clients who find themselves in unfulfilling relationships and a desire to prioritize their well-being but don't know how to start. I hope to create a space for children of immigrant parents, BIPOC communities who experience difficult relationships with their family through a multicultural lens, holding space for past traumas and emotional neglect.
I believe that having the right support on a healing journey is the most important factor to self-transformation. In sessions with me, you can expect complete non-judgement and feel comfortable to show up exactly as you are. I am accepting new clients. Feel free to reach out for next steps!

I work with clients who may be struggling with anxiety or trauma related to their relationships or family. During our initial sessions, we will delve deeply into uncover core issues and collaborate to create a plan for addressing them in a way that helps you get your life back in control. Most clients see a gradual lifting of symptoms within the first month and sustained improvement thereafter.

I use an integrated approach in my practice. We spend the first few sessions exploring past and current experiences to create a plan together on themes to process. You will learn how to regulate your nervous system, manage conflict, set boundaries and show up in your life and relationships more empowered. Therapies I use are attachment focused, family system, solution focused, somatic, and EMDR.
