Are you ready to establish our healing connection? Welcome! My practice focuses on the unique needs and goals of each client and I will meet you where you are at in your mental health and wellness journey. I support people with a warm, compassionate and direct style. We will work collaboratively to support you with the changes you would like to make in areas including, but not limited to: anxiety, depression, life transitions, trauma, substance use/addiction, relationship with yourself and others, family conflict, parenting and work/school stress.
I am a Registered Social Worker based in Ontario, Canada dedicated to supporting people from all walks of life. My lived experience in three cultures informs my authentic therapeutic style. I have experience providing support in hospital and community settings. I am passionate about providing client-centred, and evidence-based interventions for my clients.
I support my clients with a social justice-oriented, trauma-informed & anti-oppressive lens. I strive to work with you to understand your unique needs and collaborate with you to improve your coping skills and resiliency on your wellness and recovery journey to achieve your goals. If you would like to see if we are a good fit, please reach out!
