I offer psychotherapy services for individuals and couples, creating a supportive, non-judgmental space to explore challenges, deepen self-awareness, and work toward meaningful personal goals. My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and client-centered.
With over 10 years of experience in the mental health field prior to completing my graduate studies, I bring a well-rounded background to my psychotherapy practice. I have worked extensively in crisis support, case management, and system navigation, supporting both youth and adults through a variety of complex life experiences. Through my work in crisis intervention, I’ve seen firsthand how essential it is to support both the body and the mind in the healing process — this is why I take a holistic approach to therapy. These roles have shaped my understanding of the diverse needs individuals face and have equipped me to provide grounded, empathetic care.
My therapeutic work is grounded in a holistic, trauma-informed lens of support to the whole person and integrative healing. Some of the modalities I draw from include nervous system work, somatic practices, attachment-based therapy, and Internal Family Systems (IFS)-informed parts work.
Psychotherapy can support clients in navigating life transitions, managing stress and anxiety, addressing relationship challenges, improving self-esteem, and enhancing emotional well-being. Sessions are tailored to help you develop insight, build coping strategies, and move forward in alignment with your values.
As a Registered Social Worker (RSW) in Ontario, I am authorized to practise psychotherapy under the Regulated Health Professions Act (RHPA). This means I can support you not only through talk therapy and emotional processing, but also through clinically informed strategies aimed at addressing a wide range of mental health concerns.
If you’re looking for a safe and grounded space to reflect, grow, and take meaningful steps forward, I’d be honoured to work with you.
