Mood regulation, stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, relationships, grief, life transitions are all things that weigh on us. As a private clinician, I make it my goal to help my clients find their inner strength to overcome those challenges that life throws at them and offer them hope in living their life the way they see fit. Adopting approaches such as CBT, DBT, ACT, IFS and the Gottman Method I hope to assist clients in breaking down barriers and delve into the challenges that are preventing them from moving forward.

In order to feel safe and in control, you may have learned certain survival and coping strategies to keep you grounded. Perhaps you are a child of immigrants, struggling to exist between two cultures. Or maybe you were afraid to disappoint others and taught yourself to never have any needs or boundaries. These behaviours, while understandable, may no longer serve you in the ways that you need. Together, we can explore and unpack your life experiences, offer understanding and validation to the shutdown parts of you, and learn to take up space and exist in our world. Psychotherapy can promote healing, resiliency and self-empowerment.
