I support individuals navigating anxiety, stress, trauma, emotional overwhelm, low self-esteem, life transitions, BIPOC experiences and relationship challenges. As an immigrant woman with deep cultural and lived experience, I understand the complexities of balancing multiple roles, navigating cultural expectations, and carrying the emotional weight of past and present experiences. I honour your story, your strengths, and the identities that shape who you are. My approach is gentle, collaborative, and grounded in the belief that every person has the capacity for healing and growth when given a safe and compassionate environment.
My therapeutic approach integrates Person-Centred Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), trauma-informed practices, attachment awareness, and culturally sensitive, anti-oppressive frameworks. Together, we will explore what matters most to you, build emotional flexibility, and develop tools that help you move toward clarity and resilience.
My goal is to walk alongside you, neither ahead of nor behind you, at a pace that feels safe and empowering. Therapy with me is not about perfection; it is about healing, reconnecting with your inner strength, and rediscovering your sense of self.
