I have always been inspired by those who help others which led me to pursue a career in mental health. I completed my Bachelor of Social Work at the University of Waterloo, and Master of Social Work at Western University and I am registered with the Ontario College of Social Workers and Social Service Workers. What I value most about the therapeutic process is the mutual collaboration with clients. I have years of experience working with individuals and families, and I am currently accepting new clients for individual and couples therapy.
I implement evidence-based therapy modalities, such as Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), that provide research-supported coping skills. I also enjoy therapy practices that allow for deeper self-exploration and reflection, such as Mindfulness, Narrative Therapy, and Internal Family Systems Theory.
I pride myself on meeting clients where they are, and adjusting my approach to suit each individual and their unique life journey. It is my role to create a safe and curious space to share your personal strengths and challenges. You are the expert of your own life, and as a team we can work toward your mental wellness goals.
