In my practice, I help clients who feel disempowered by life’s challenges. Many are struggling with anxiety, depression, shame, assertiveness, relationship conflict, trauma, physical illness and spiritual crisis. My goal is to create a safe, supportive and non-judmental space for my clients to discuss their concerns and be their authentic selves. I will help connect the body and mind to deepen emotional exploration and to release any tension from the body. I will incorporate my client’s spiritual life in the therapeutic process to facilitate emotional healing and spiritual development.

Together, we will create a safe space for you to explore and make sense of your experiences, fostering internal safety and a kind relationship with yourself.
You may be feeling anxious, unsure how to handle your emotions, and struggling to understand yourself. Perhaps you've experienced the impacts of historical or current colonial violence, childhood trauma, or relationship challenges. Maybe you're an immigrant or the child of immigrants, trying to balance cultural expectations with your own needs. If you're looking to heal, find clarity, and feel more at peace, I'm here to support you. I will hold space for all your emotions, no matter how difficult, conflicting, or confusing, without pathologizing your normal human experiences.

I believe that my most important therapy tool is the relationship between myself and my clients.
Hi! I’m so glad you’re here. Reaching out for support is such a wonderful step in ensuring your wellness. Navigating our emotional health can be hard. Thank you for trusting me with yours. During our work together, we will explore how we are shaped by our early experiences and how our emotions guide us to better understand ourselves. We won’t be learning quick strategies to coping, conflict resolution or emotion management, but instead we will slow down and work to uncover the underlying patterns that drive our perceptions of the world, our relationships with others, and our relationship with ourselves.

Also, having been married for over 20 years, I have lived experience navigating relationship struggles.
My heart is for those who are overwhelmed, burnt out, stuck, struggling, and disconnected. Your story has made you who you are, but it doesn’t have to define your future. I believe you are the expert on your experience and my role is to help you find yourself again. During my years working with survivors of intimate partner violence, I developed a passion for supporting people through their personal journey of growth and healing. As a mother of four teens and young adults with ADHD and ASD, I am dedicated to helping individuals and families understand neurodiversity and learn to flourish.

I believe a nurturing relationship is foundational to growth, therefore, the fit between client and therapist needs to feel right.
Welcome to taking your first step to finding the right support for yourself. Being human is a challenging experience, now made more so by technology’s rapid growth in the 21st century. Advances in telecommunications have brought convenience and ease of staying in touch with others but they have also added more complexity to navigating living in our current times and to genuinely connecting with one another. I believe my clients have the inner resources to heal and create their own happiness.

I often work on relationship issues, trauma, difficulty connecting with others, impulsivity, conflict, communication, loneliness, depression, anxiety, self-esteem, immigration and acculturation, and multicultural stress.
When I think about therapy, I imagine my client’s search for well-being and healing as if they were lost and trying to find their way home. You might know where home is, but find yourself stuck in darkness, not being able to find your way. As your therapist, I see myself holding the flashlight. You are the one who knows your way to healing, and I have the tools to help get you there easier. This is what I believe therapy looks like; us walking together on your journey. As we travel together to help you find “home”—your place of healing, peace, and comfort—while I share my knowledge and tools to help you find that “home”.

Relationship Issues Counsellors
While need for human connection appears to be innate, the ability to form healthy, loving relationships is learned. Some evidence suggests that the ability to form a stable relationship starts to form in infancy, in a child's earliest experiences with a caregiver who reliably meets the infant's needs for food, care, warmth, protection, stimulation, and social contact. Such relationships are not destiny, but they are theorized to establish deeply ingrained patterns of relating to others. The end of a relationship, however, is often a source of great psychological anguish.
