Therapy holds a delicate balance: supportive yet challenging, welcoming yet daring. It's a collaborative journey where two individuals embark on a mutual exploration of the self. Dedicated to guiding you toward self-discovery and personal growth, my approach integrates mindfulness techniques, trauma-informed practices, and strategies for emotional regulation. Drawing from a rich community and clinical social work background and extensive psychiatric expertise, I am committed to assisting individuals on their path to wholehearted wellness.

Does your child need support navigating challenges like ADHD, behavioural concerns, hyperactivity, motivation, decision-making, focus, aggression, shyness, or other social-emotional issues? At Positive Kids, we understand how difficult it can be to see your child struggle. That’s why we’ve created a nurturing space to help children and teens develop critical life skills, in the following areas: self-control, self-awareness, social awareness, relationship skills and responsible decision-making. These children ultimately become independent, confident, inquisitive, enthusiastic, responsible and compassionate adults in later years.

Coping with life challenges such as grief, relationship troubles, anxiety, depression, interpersonal conflict, or simply a general lack of well-being, can feel overwhelming for all of us. As a licensed Psychotherapist experienced with varied clinical and solution-focused approaches, my first priority is to provide a safe, non-judgemental space where clients can feel heard and understood. I then encourage those I work with to build on their inner strengths, explore adaptive strategies,integrate psycho spiritual resources and pursue their potential for personal growth.

I have over 25 years experience, and extensive training specializing in therapy with people whose relationships have become places of fear, insecurity, and loneliness, where bonds of emotional safety, trust and intimacy have gradually eroded. I offer a short-term, emotionally focused approach (EFT) that's scientifically proven and highly successful in creating greater closeness, a way back to the heart of your relationship. When the connection that you'd hoped to depend on forever seems lost, replaced by distance and confusion, I can help you rekindle intimacy and compassion, a secure bond you can depend on even in hard times.

I am a doctoral student, certified in Grief/Bereavement education by ADEC and by CCPA with a CCC. I work from a strength based, person-centered approach and believe that each individual is the expert of their own life. Having experienced first-hand the physical, emotional and mental stress and anxiety brought on by illness and disease such as cancer, and related losses, my devotion/passion lies in walking with you through what is a turbulent journey, one that does not need to be faced alone.

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.
