I am a dedicated and compassionate Psychotherapist and Social Worker committed to helping individuals, children, couples and families navigate life’s challenges and achieve meaningful growth. My approach is evidence-based, and client-centred, ensuring that every person I work with receives tailored support that meets their unique needs.
With expertise in clinical, psychiatric, medical, and forensic social work and Psychotherapy, I provide a safe and non-judgmental space for clients to explore their thoughts, emotions, and experiences. My therapeutic approach integrates Psychodynamic Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and Gestalt Play Therapy
Life can be overwhelming at times, and you don’t have to go through it alone. I am here to provide a compassionate and understanding space where you can feel heard and supported. Each person’s journey is unique, and I tailor my approach to meet your individual needs. Together, we can create a path forward.

I use a range of evidence-based therapies tailored to your unique needs. For example psychodynamic therapy helps uncover deep-rooted patterns, while Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) equips you with tools to manage emotions and change negative thought patterns. Sessions are collaborative, whether focused on processing past experiences, learning coping strategies, or navigating life's challenges.
