Aurora, ON L4G
I offer counselling sessions in-person, or online via video.
Clients seeking my help have difficulty coping, and feel emotionally overloaded; but they are also ready for a change. Their distress can create anxiety and depression that results in negative thoughts, which influence your behavior and emotions. Avoiding unpleasant emotions can cause harm and inappropriate reactive behaviors. Emotional and psychological support for issues involving depression, anxiety, grief, addiction, relationship issues, self-improvement, are some of the stressors I work with. Through counselling we can focus on your needs and set goals that will ultimately give you tools to cope with life on life's terms.

With flexible appointment times (day time, evening and weekends) and a range of meeting options ( in person and online) I make it easy for you to fit therapy into your busy life.
From what anyone can tell you’ve got it all going for yourself. But, inside your overwhelmed, anxious, depressed, stressed. You've spent a lot of time just holding things together and you're tired. Or maybe it’s your child struggling. To everyone else it looks like they have it all but you are all too familiar with the call from school in the middle of your work day to pick them up. Maybe they have a stomach ache because of anxiety, or they got into another fight. Maybe they save it all for home where they melt down and just can't cope. You're exhausted and it’s time for a change.

In-person therapy sessions are reserved for children & youth at my Markham location.
We are human beings, but when caught up in our busy lives, we sometimes turn into human doings. It can be challenging to be present when your schedules are full or you get swept off by external and internal forces. I have the honour to work with individuals and families challenged by anxiety, depression, experiences of oppression and marginalization. I support folks who may be misunderstood or troubled by negative thoughts. Everyone has the power to heal from within, and healing may look different for each individual. I am grateful to accompany you on this healing journey. We all have the right to thrive.

I work with all kinds of mental health issues and am comfortable with neurodiversity. In my strengths-based and trauma-informed practice, I have found Brainspotting to be particularly helpful for all kinds of clients. It is a relatively new treatment that helps the brain heal itself beneath the level of words.

They may be navigating cultural expectations, burnout, heartbreak, or the pressure to be everything for everyone. They’re ready to understand themselves deeply, strengthen their boundaries, and reconnect with their values. Above all, they want to feel calmer, more confident, and in control of their story again.
