Accepting New Clients! I specialize in helping helpers—particularly those in the medical and caregiving professions. You’re exceptional at caring for others, but it’s all too easy to overlook your own well-being. If you’re feeling overwhelmed by the demands of your role, struggling with anxiety, or finding it difficult to manage your mental health, know that you’re not alone. Navigating trauma can be complex and isolating, often bringing a whirlwind of emotions that feel unmanageable. It can be especially challenging for caregivers, who may struggle to process their own trauma while still supporting those around them.

Asking for help can be difficult, but I'm here to encourage those who are struggling to reach out for support. I emphasize the importance of creating a safe space for open and honest discussion. As a registered social worker with over 5 years of experience, my primary goal is to assist my clients in developing resiliency and coping skills. People should feel comfortable about seeking external support during challenging times and should be aware of accessible mental health resources and tools available. I pride myself in ensuring that all my clients regardless of race, religion, sexuality or gender feel empowered and safe.

It can feel disheartening, overwhelming, and confusing to recognize that you are not living the life that you envisioned for yourself. Although we are all the experts of our own lived experiences, we can use a supportive space to prioritize our wellbeing and take the steps to move towards a values-based life. I am a person-centered, anti-oppressive therapist who provides individual counselling to adults looking for support with mental health concerns such as anxiety and depression, trauma, grief, life transitions, stress and race-related stress, and friendship or romantic relationship difficulties.

Do you feel the pressure to be perfect all the time? A relentless pursuit that extends into every corner of your life, from the food you put on your plate, your relationships, the demands of your job, and the expectations surrounding your appearance. These expectations can be overwhelming, leading to feelings of inadequacy and frustration. But what if we shifted the focus from pursuing perfection to authenticity and self-compassion? You’re ready to make a change. You’re ready to redefine success and find strength in vulnerability. You are ready to love yourself. I want to help you get there.

As a licensed psychologist and certified Jungian psychoanalyst, I have had extensive experience with different problematics. Reasons for consulting may be various, but it always leads us to confront an unacknowledged part of ourselves, in a word, our own unconscious shadow.

I don't think mental health is something you achieve, but rather something you work your whole life trying to improve and maintain. There are so many reasons why you can't seem to be the best version of yourself - lack of motivation, negative past experiences, fears, and insecurities. And sometimes you just need a space separate from your world to help clarify and better understand yourself and what's standing in your way. My goal is to create an open, trusting, and vulnerable space where you can be your most authentic self - I believe that is the state where insight and change takes place.

Some seasons of your life can drain you of your resources, protections, and even your identity. It can feel like everything that made you “you” has been stripped away. Therapy can be a space to grieve what once was, and a space to rebuild a life that brings you peace, connection, and joy. I work with individuals facing all manner of life transitions, including students, newcomers, and new parents.

Being a teenager can be really tough, especially if you're dealing with anxiety, trouble with relationships, and low self-esteem. You might feel a lot of pressure from school, friends, and family. It's normal to feel scared, confused, sad, or alone sometimes. If you've been through something traumatic, these feelings can be even stronger. You might start to doubt yourself and wonder about your future. Going through all of this can be very hard, but you don't have to do it by yourself.
