Welcome and thank you for being here. I know that finding a therapist can be overwhelming, so I hope my profile helps you feel more grounded as you search for the right support. Many of the clients I work with are navigating life changes and transitions, emotional or communication challenges, past trauma, and/or feelings of shame. Whatever brings you here, I want to acknowledge the resilience you carry, and offer a space to move forward together.
As Forrest Gump’s mama said, “Life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you're gonna get". When life feels turbulent, we'll slow down, deepen self-awareness, and honour your emotions rather than rush past them. I prioritize collaboration to create a supportive environment for reflection, building insight, and gently working toward change.
While I don’t offer formal diagnoses or prescribe medication, I create a safe, respectful, and non-judgmental space for exploration, reflection, and evolution. Clients of all identities and backgrounds are welcome, with respect and inclusion at the heart of my practice. Sessions are offered virtually or in person at 1635 Sherbrooke St W.

I take an eclectic approach, pulling from various evidence-based practices. Ultimately, each session is tailored to you, and we create the space that you need in that moment. You may need to vent, want me to be your sounding board, or maybe we'll set goals together. This is the one place you can let your thoughts fly, and no one will judge you for it.
