I believe that every difficulty we meet on the journey of our lives is an opportunity to evolve - by deepening our consciousness and love so that we can participate more fully in life. I see psychotherapy as mostly a process of redirecting energies, from protective & survival modes to self-actualization. I work with adults on issues of life transitions (loss, separation, adjustment disorders), depression, anxiety, eco-anxiety, addictions, high sensitivity, giftedness, creative blocks, questions of meaning & purpose in life, etc.

My clients are new immigrants and first-gen POC with ADHD, depression and anxiety. If your trauma has you fight/flight/freezing, Drama & Movement therapy might be the mindful & demure solution to support you in creating a safe space to explore mindfulness, body awareness, boundary setting, self-discovery and complex (aka stressful) family dynamics. As a brown therapist, I get the cultural perspective and bring tools to help you better navigate between home and work cultures (as an example), to find your unique voice and persona, while safely processing deep trauma and microaggressions so you can confidently go after your goals.

Over the years as a helping professional I realized that people care less about clever language and elaborate techniques and more about receiving sincere love and compassion, living hope and courage, honest feedback, and new perspectives. What proved to help is having the mutual trust to explore and work on intimate, sometimes painful topics, step-by-step. Together, we invite your strengths and natural wisdom to take the steering wheel of your life, letting go of the grasp of your fears and limiting self-beliefs. Together, we also help you chose and create new habits towards a better ways of being.

If you're searching for a psychologist who combines the latest in evidence-based treatments with a deeply caring and supportive approach, I'm here to help. I have worked in various community and hospital settings, specializing in the treatment of depression (including self-esteem, perfectionism), trauma, substance misuse, and emotion dysregulation (including emotional avoidance, borderline personality). I believe that one size does not fit all, which is why I integrate evidence-based treatments, such as DBT and CBT, with new research and therapeutic approaches to meet the unique goals and needs of each individual.

My approach can be described as strength-based and client-centered. I believe that the client must feel empowered, supported and dignified at all times. Clients who have had complicated lives, will often have trouble envisioning positive outcomes to their life story. This can impede and prevent growth and self- fulfillment. My job is to help clients to identify obstacles, work through impeding emotions, and arm them with new strategies. The effort should be collaborative. With my guidance, clients can shed their "negative narrative" and thus feel a sense of renewed hope. The future should seem one of possibility.

Would you like to feel motivated by life? Cultivate genuine, loving relationships? Feel good about yourself, regardless of what life throws your way? Well you’re certainly not alone! Connection, self-esteem, and self-actualization have all been identified as human needs—essential to our mental health and well-being. Unfortunately, certain emotional, behavioural, or relational patterns can act as barriers to these needs, quelling our personal growth, and leaving us confined to oppressive cycles of anxiety and distress. Relate to any or all of the above? I think we all can—and perhaps I can help.

Most people (or couples) reach out to begin psychotherapy when they are feeling lost, unhappy, lonely or that something needs to change. Often, they do not know what that is, but feel they need some assistance and guidance in examining the more hidden corners of themselves and their lives. Therapy is different with every person, and is therefore a very personal journey. I am a licensed psychologist who works with adults and couples struggling with depression, anxiety, eating issues, parenting struggles, or difficulties in any important domains of their lives. I help couples having a hard time reach each other in important ways.
