My focus areas include people-pleasing, self-care, and trauma and attachment.
You’ve always put others first. You're keeping the peace, meeting expectations, and making sure no one is disappointed. But lately, it’s exhausting. You feel guilty setting boundaries, struggle with family dynamics, and wonder if you’ll ever feel truly at ease. Stress, self-doubt, and people-pleasing have taken a toll on your well-being. You want to find balance between honouring your cultural values and prioritizing yourself, but you’re unsure how. Therapy can help you untangle these patterns and build the confidence to make choices that align with your needs and not just everyone else’s.

I have been providing therapy in areas of mental health, specializing in trauma processing, anxiety, depression, PTSD, self esteem & self worth and helping individuals who have experienced domestic violence and sexual assault.
I focus on a client centred practice but I also recognize at times it takes a community to assist individuals, couples, and families in their time of need. I work from a holistic approach focusing on the spiritual, mental, emotional, and physical aspects of people I suppport.

Trauma and PTSD don't always look like we expect.
We often see triggers as something to fix, control, or move beyond. But what if a trigger is actually a signal from within—a part of you that still doesn’t feel safe? Rather than shutting it down, what if you asked: Which part of me is speaking right now? What is it afraid of? What does it need from me? Being triggered doesn’t mean you’re doing wrong

As an integrative therapist, I work with curiosity, compassion, and a trauma-informed, systemic lens which honours how culture, relationships, and environment shape who we are.
It takes courage to be here, to even consider reaching out, that vulnerability is the first step toward healing. Maybe you’ve been carrying painful experiences alone, or you feel stuck in patterns you can’t quite name. Therapy with me is a space to slow down, feel seen, and begin to make sense of what weighs on you. I offer a compassionate, non-judgmental space where your story is honoured. Together we’ll build insight, process painful experiences, and discover new ways of being that feel more aligned and freeing.

Reaching out for help can be a daunting experience, but I can offer a safe and empathetic space for you to gain insight into and process past hurts, explore healthier ways to cope, live a more meaningful and authentic life, and learn how to communicate your needs and boundaries with others.

Maybe you've been carrying a lot on your own for a long time. You might be feeling anxious, overwhelmed, emotionally drained, stuck in your thoughts or unsure of who you are underneath all the responsibilities and expectations. Many of the people I work with are navigating relationship stress, people pleasing, burnout, self-doubt, family or cultural pressures and patterns that seem to repeat themselves. Together, we work toward feeling more grounded, understanding what's truly happening underneath and breaking out of patterns that don't serve you anymore.
