Life can feel overwhelming, whether you're a teen or a young adult navigating big emotions, life transitions, or challenges with relationships, school, or self-esteem.

My approach integrates CBT, attachment, and emotionally focused therapy with mindfulness and self-compassion practices.
I support individuals and couples navigating anxiety, relationship challenges, and life transitions. Life can feel heavy when conflict, stress, or change pull you off balance—you may look calm on the outside yet feel overwhelmed inside, unsure, or disconnected from who you used to be. Whether you’re adjusting to motherhood, rebuilding confidence, or seeking deeper connection, therapy offers a safe and collaborative space to explore, understand, and grow. I provide evidence-based care in a compassionate, judgment-free environment, with optional Christian faith integration for clients who desire it.

I am a Registered Psychotherapist, EMDR-certified, Gottman-trained, and hold a certificate in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy ( CBT).
I specialize in supporting people through anxiety, trauma, and relationship challenges. Many of the people I work with come to therapy feeling stuck, overwhelmed, and disconnected from a sense of ease or enjoyment in their day-to-day lives.
With over a decade of experience in the mental health field, I’ve seen that healing happens in connection, not in isolation. As a therapist, my goal is to provide a safe and supportive space where you can feel seen, heard, and understood. Together, we’ll explore what brings you to therapy at your own pace and in your own way.

Because it's hard. Because it's heavy. Because it hurts. Because you've been struggling for a while, and it's time to reach out. You have good reasons for feeling this way. Let's discover those good reasons together, and find ways for you to live alongside anxiety and depression, stress and change, grief and loss, parenting challenges, and/or trauma. Along the way, we will learn about your perspectives and values. Some clients want to explore their pasts to help understand their present, while others want to focus on the current situation. Whatever the case, I will help you reconnect with the wisdom and strength you already possess.

My approach integrates CBT, DBT, ACT, and Polyvagal Theory, and is grounded in trauma-informed and anti-oppressive practice.
Life can feel overwhelming at times- whether it’s anxiety that won’t quiet down, depression that makes even small tasks feel heavy, or grief that lingers longer than expected. We all experience challenges at some point in our lives. I have extensive experience working with children, youth and adults who may be struggling with self-harming behaviours, the impact of divorce or separation, managing emotions or working through childhood trauma. Some adolescents may be questioning their sexuality or gender identity and they need a safe, affirming space to explore who they are. No one needs to navigate life's challenges alone.

Insomnia Interventions CBT Queens University 2025 certificate.
From the outside, you look like you're holding it together. Inside, your mind won't slow down. You overthink, expect the worst, replay conversations, and struggle to relax, even when you're exhausted. Maybe anxiety keeps you constantly on edge, past experiences still affect how safe you feel, or insomnia leaves you mentally and physically drained. Trauma isn't always one life-changing event. Sometimes it's years of carrying too much.

Using evidence-based approaches like CBT, ACT, and SFT, I help clients understand the root of their patterns, develop practical tools, and strengthen self-trust so they can move forward with greater clarity, balance, and confidence.
My clients are high-achieving men and women who appear successful on the outside but feel overwhelmed, anxious, or stuck internally. They often struggle with overthinking, people-pleasing, perfectionism, and a persistent sense of not feeling “good enough,” which can impact their relationships, work, and overall well-being.
They typically come to therapy feeling burnt out, disconnected from themselves, or caught in patterns they can’t seem to break. Many are looking for relief from anxiety, clearer boundaries, improved self-worth, and more fulfilling relationships, both personally and professionally.
