I work from a Trauma-informed lens and combine a variety of evidence-based practices with holistic approaches.
When individuals experience trauma or severe life stressors, it may become increasingly difficult to navigate day to day life. I ensure a safe space is cultivated by taking a person-centered approach; ensuring cultivation of a safe space through kindness, openness, empathy, and compassion. My greatest passion as a Clinician is to show how there is uniqueness and restoration in one's story, one's pain and collection of struggles.

My approach is trauma focused, while incorporating psychodynamic and attachment theory.
Do you struggle to find ways to cope? Do you struggle with managing and navigating through life stressors? Individuals may turn to substances, disordered eating, isolation, or avoidance as a means of managing difficult emotions, numbing pain, or exerting control in overwhelming circumstances. This may exacerbate feelings of low self-esteem, anxiety, depression, and mood swings. I specialize in addictions, disordered eating, body image, trauma, anxiety, depression and relationship issues. I incorporate psychodynamic therapy to explore underlying patterns while supporting you towards self-discovery and healing.

My approach goes beyond talk therapy and focuses on the emotional and the physiological imprints of anxiety, depression, trauma and attachment.
Has "getting by" become a way of life? Are you feeling hijacked by anxiety, stuck in cyclical low mood, or simply overwhelmed in relationship dynamics? Toxic stress and trauma destabilize our nervous system and shake up our sense of safety and control. In therapy, we open the doorway to understanding and neutralizing the roots of your triggers. Trauma-informed therapy works to stabilize your brain and body so that surviving transforms into thriving. It empowers you to restore balance within... to become the architect of your mind... and to cultivate a resilient self, unburdened by the past or life's circumstances.

I specialize in a blend of EMDR, neurofeedback, ego state and somatic therapy to target anxiety, depression, PTSD and attachment trauma.
Are you tired of living in "survival mode"? Either feeling chronically unsettled or inexpressibly low and numb! Perhaps, something feels missing; an emptiness you can’t quite put your finger on! There comes a time when just getting by is not enough and we can no longer hide behind a smile. Change begins when we decide that "waiting for the pain to dissipate" is no longer an option. So what if you could take back control of your life and live unchained by your history? How far would you thrive if you could tailor a life of your own design, uninterrupted by stress, anxiety or pain stories?

My approach is rooted in client-centred and trauma-informed practices, as well as facilitating empowerment through highlighting personal strengths.
We know that the universe is vast, but we often overlook the vastness of the human mind. Each person brings forward their own mini-universe to explore, something I have always had a passion for and curiosity towards. Inside each of us is a mystery waiting to be unfolded, strength and resilience to be found, and the potential for real change. To be a part of people’s inner sanctums is the ultimate privilege, and something I treat with the utmost respect and care.

Utilizing a client-centered and holistic approach, I am devoted to helping individuals heal from trauma and navigate challenges related to sex and intimacy.
You might be feeling hurt, angry, and uncertain after being betrayed by someone close to you. Are you struggling with sexual concerns that are affecting your relationships, causing you to feel disconnected from your partner, and alone? When we are faced with feelings of distrust, resentment, guilt, or shame, the hope for change can seem far away. Therapy can provide a safe place for you to identify these feelings, identify the root causes, and feel empowered.
