I am a Canadian Certified Counsellor (CCC) who aims to create safe spaces for people to navigate their struggles, stressors, and healing journeys. My approach to counselling is grounded in mindfulness-based therapy, which gives people the tools they need to become more aware of their present moment thoughts and feelings and helps identify how they may impact overall well-being.
