In my counselling approach, my focus is establishing trusting relationships with my clients. I offer accessible and personalized counseling sessions for adults, children, youth, caregivers, and families, available both in person and online from the convenience of your home. I work at a pediatrics clinic and a non-profit agency, where my focus is on providing support for children, youth, and parents. Prior to embracing my role as a clinical counsellor, I served as an office manager at Ministry of Children and Development, an experience that inspired me to pursue a more active role in supporting clients.

One of the most exciting aspects of life is that it is always changing, yet this can also be one of our biggest challenges. Life's transitional moments can be difficult as they can cause stress, uncertainty and confusion and can often lead to feelings of grief and loss. It can make us question ourselves and others and may overwhelm us into inaction. The picture of what we had expected our future to look like changes and we are left with a variety of emotions and no plan forward. I believe that having someone to talk to through these tough times is so helpful. I am grateful to be that person for my clients.

My work as a therapist is shaped by lived experience, academic study, and a commitment to justice and care. I grew up in a patriarchal Latino culture and understand the emotional and relational impact of oppression, trauma, and intergenerational wounds. I offer trauma-informed, anti-racist, and anti-oppressive counselling in English and Spanish for individuals and couples.
In couples therapy, I help partners break through cycles of disconnection, shutdown, or conflict—especially when trauma, cultural differences, identity transitions, or parenting stress are in the mix. Whether you're navigating trust issues or emotional distance.

Negative life experiences not only affect a person individually, but relationally as well. Survivors can begin to experience issues with trust, communication and closeness that often create a pattern of distancing in order to avoid conflict. From my years of training and experience, both personally and professionally, I believe in the power of reconnecting with the self and others to heal.

I work with individuals struggling with anxiety and depression, building self-esteem, looking to heal past trauma, facing challenges in relationships, or just needing a space to talk. Together we will discuss goals and what changes you want to see in your life. Therapy is a place to talk freely without judgment, to be heard and validated, and to feel less alone. It can also be a space to gain tools to help understand your emotions and feel more supported in times of stress. Therapy can also be a space to work through deep wounds and to process the impacts of past painful experiences.

Feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or stuck in a cycle of “shoulds” and self-comparison? Feeling anxious, stuck, or disconnected from your own needs? Exhausted by the pressure to do it all, yet unsure how to slow down? You’re not alone. Many of the people I work with are navigating burnout, self-doubt, body image concerns, or life transitions that have pulled them away from who they are. You might feel overwhelmed by “shoulds,” self-comparison, or the weight of expectations. What you really want is to feel more grounded, connected, and confident—like yourself again. Therapy can be a space to breathe, reflect, and begin that return.

As a Registered Clinical Counsellor/Psychotherapist with 25 years of experience working with individuals, couples, and families, I use a client-centred, integrative approach to address the therapeutic goals of clients. No one should be defined by their diagnoses, and rather than placing emphasis on what is not working, I collaborate with clients to determine what actions can be taken to improve on their circumstances. All individuals exist along their own continuum of mental health, and with adequate supports and a focus on holistic well-being, every client can be nurtured towards growth and a healthier sense of self.
