Therapy for busy young adults, professionals & newcomers navigating stress, burnout, and life transitions. You might be functioning on the outside, but internally feel disconnected, stressed, or stuck in patterns you don’t fully understand. Therapy is a space to slow down, reflect, and make meaningful change. I specialize in working with young adults, professionals, and immigrants who are navigating:
Anxiety, overthinking, and burnout, Grief, trauma, and emotional overwhelm, Career changes, identity confusion, or feeling “stuck”, Cultural transitions, including immigration and resettlement. Through psychodynamic therapy, we gently explore the deeper roots of your thoughts, emotions, and patterns—often shaped by past relationships and early experiences.
Together, we’ll work to: Understand what’s holding you back, Build emotional resilience and self-awareness, Develop tools for clarity, confidence, and healing. If you’re ready to understand yourself more deeply and build emotional resilience, I’d be honoured to support you on that journey.
