Life can present many challenges and difficulties. It's tough to experience stress, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, and burnout. Yet, it's often when facing these difficulties that we discover our strengths, resiliency, and capacity for growth. You have made the courageous step towards seeking counselling. I’d be honoured to support your journey towards healing and self-discovery. Together we can help you gain further self-awareness, develop coping strategies, alleviate the negative impact of past experiences, and create positive changes for your well-being and life.
I’m a bilingual (English-French) person-centered Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) and EMDR-trained whose therapy approach is shaped by my upbringing as the daughter of immigrants, focusing on cultural sensitivity and understanding to promote healing and growth. Your worldview and experiences will be taken into consideration as we work collaboratively.
By providing a safe, supportive and trauma-informed space where you can explore your thoughts and emotions without judgment, my goal is for you to feel heard, respected, and validated. I invite you to book a free consult today to see if we’re a good fit. If you’re ready to start, let’s book a first session. I look forward to working with you!
