Do you feel chronically overwhelmed, confused, unhappy, or unsure of yourself and you're not quite sure why? Are you processing a significant loss or change in life and working through what it means to you? I focus on providing a safe, inclusive, non-judgmental, trauma-informed, compassionate, ND-affirming space to support you in making connections, processing trauma and grief, developing new coping strategies, setting healthy boundaries, building secure attachments, adapting to change, and living confidently in line with your personal values.

If you are experiencing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, or a disconnect from yourself or others, you do not have to go through it alone. Starting therapy can be a powerful step towards changing your life. I am a Registered Psychotherapist who works from a trauma-informed perspective. I bring compassion and understanding to each session. I work to ensure that a safe and comfortable space is created, so you can explore your emotions and thoughts.

My own life experiences have led me on this journey. Since I can remember I have always had a heart to see people living the life they were meant to live and witness that potential in those that choose to work with me. I have been led to work in many parts of the world from India, Cambodia, Costa Rica, Malawi and right here in Toronto and the Durham Region directly with underprivileged, homeless or at-risk youth, survivors of human trafficking, people from different developmental stages and life transitions including seniors in long-term care. Sometimes things happen in life and we do not know how to unpack everything ourselves.

A key element in choosing a professional is the level of ease and comfort that exists between you and your therapist. I am flexible, easy to talk to and have great interpersonal skills. My belief is that change management and transformation occur when people make decisions that are strategic and focused. I can assist you in dealing with depression, anxiety, trauma, addictions, abuse, poor self-image, family problems and other issues that are stopping you from 'living' your life. What about your children? Are they being bullied? Learning development problems? Exhibiting 'at-risk' behaviours? I can help!

I have experience in working with clients with diverse backgrounds experiencing various struggles such as, anxiety, depression, trauma, interpersonal problems, and other mental health concerns. Some of my clients have come to therapy unsure of how to define the problem, but have just felt a general sense of dissatisfaction with life.

Hello! I have been a registered social worker since 2014. Being a child or youth can be really difficult sometimes, especially following the pandemic. While I work with people of all ages, my areas of focus are in supporting children, youth and families who are struggling to cope and need support to process their feelings and difficulties they may have, including a broad range of mental illness, wellness issues and/or social issues. This includes depression, anxieties, bullying/ school issues, caregiver relationship issues, and many more. While challenges can come in all shapes and sizes, you can learn new tools to deal with them.

There are moments in life when we face adversities that leave us feeling overwhelmed, sad, anxious, hopeless, isolated, and/or stressed. Perhaps there is a problem that seems impossible to solve.

I can support you to identify where you may be feeling stuck in your life and empower you to find ways to create balance within yourself and in your relationships with others and your environment.

Are you struggling or feeling overwhelmed with stress in your life and don’t know how to change it? Do you feel isolated or alone or just not like yourself?

We are reproductive, perinatal, and maternal mental health specialists, and have received certification in Perinatal Mental Health.

Fighting over the same thing, feeling distant and disconnected, or like you don't know each other at all? Are you wondering where the love has gone and don't know what to do? You're probably fighting over the mess around the house, parenting, and everything in between while living with deep stress, sadness, and anxiety. Or - not fighting at all. My individual clients struggle with big life questions like should I stay or should I go? Why is dating not working for me? How can I actually do work that I enjoy? The greatest source of health and happiness in your life is relationships - we can find that together.

I offer couples a new way to understand and relate to each other. We build connection and intimacy through developing new skills for attention, conversation, and emotional awareness. Couples counselling lets me use all of my skills in one place, it’s an important and special experience where I get to help bring people together - or support them in their vision to move apart, if that’s what they need. I am also passionate about helping with stress in the workplace and relationships, anxiety and depression, and/or ADHD. I’ve seen great success supporting “adult children” who are working to heal parental relationships.
