At times, life can feel so overwhelming that we just wish for a way out of the chaos into stillness and peace. This chaos might manifest in stress, anxiety, depression, or relationship issues, or it may show up as traumatic and painful experiences preventing you from achieving your desires and goals. It is absolutely possible to find your way to happiness and inner peace and it’s helpful to have a trained professional with lived experience guide and support you through that journey.
I practice from a client-centred, intersectional, anti-oppressive lens. I am trained in CBT, DBT, EFT, and trauma focused approaches among others & can help you identify thoughts, feelings, and behaviours that are getting in the way of your goals, unpack painful experiences, and help you build a more self-aware, mindful, and kind relationship with yourself.
As a racialized counsellor, I recognize the unique stressors and lived experiences that come with navigating often oppressive institutions and systems. I am committed to offering a safe space to hold difficult feelings, and I hope to be able to walk with you on this journey towards peace and healing.
