A warm welcome to you! Whether you know what you want to work on in therapy or you just have a general sense that you'd like to feel better and improve your life, I would be honoured to help. My integrative depth-oriented approach is informed by my personal mindfulness meditation practice (vipassana/insight tradition) and includes a deep appreciation for the power of the body-heart-mind connection. I have trained in a somatic (body-centred) therapy called Sensorimotor Psychotherapy and have training in grief counselling (including non-death loss and grief due to suicide).
My main training has been through the Master of Psycho-Spiritual Studies program at the University of Toronto and I am doing additional training at the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health (CAMH) two days a week. I provide an inclusive, compassionate, and safe environment for you to feel heard, seen, and understood.
Clients have told me that I’m a caring, open, patient, and non-judgmental therapist. I work with people from all backgrounds, beliefs, and identities. If you would like to have a short conversation before you start therapy with me, I offer a free 15-minute initial consultation (phone or online). I look forward to meeting you.
