My practice is grounded in self-exploration, relationships, and discovering personal meaning. I work with people who want to better understand themselves and make sense of their experiences. It’s hard to understand why we can’t break free from the patterns that keep us stuck. These patterns can make it hard to feel safe and connected to the people who matter most. It might leave you feeling overwhelmed and unable to make a move to change things. Or you might be feeling disconnected from your self. With awareness and compassion, we can better recognize what’s holding you back and explore strategies that lead to meaningful change.

You are a high achiever who is always willing to do what it takes. You've been described as industrious and passionate. You are the ones friends and family come to with their problems, and appear to have it all together. Beneath this independent, confident exterior, anxiety brews. It feels big and is getting harder to contain. Your inner critic is loud and persistent, telling you that you're still not enough. You are holding so much for everyone and yourself, and you feel so alone. I see you. I am here to help you discover why you feel like this, to hold space with you, and explore the inner workings of your multi layered self.

You're a highly sensitive person and empath with a tendency to say "yes" too much. You have read the self-help books, tried things like meditation, journaling, and positive thinking - maybe you've been to therapy before, but you still feel stuck. This might look like people pleasing, self-sabotage, overwhelm or overthinking. Maybe for you it's anxiety, ADHD, low self esteem, overdrinking, procrastination, and difficulty regulating emotions. Often, this can show up as difficulties in interpersonal relationships - either being attracted to the wrong people or having a hard time finding fulfillment in your existing relationships

Are you a First Responder or a Veteran navigating civvy street? Whether you served in the Military or are a Firefighter, Paramedic, or Police Officer, no one is immune to the stresses of service. For those without this experience, connecting meaningfully can be tough. For me, cultural competency means more than just recognizing your service—it’s about personal experience in uniform.

If you're an immigrant looking to re-integrate parts of your culture of origin after moving to Canada, you might often feel rootless and lost, having to assimilate out of necessity. You may grieve silently, feel isolated and misunderstood, and sometimes carry shame, fear, and regret for what was lost during your migration. Or maybe you are the child of brave immigrants and struggle to explain your unique fusion of cultures. You desire a successful life in Canada while honouring your heritage, which requires balancing cultures that can sometimes conflict or contradict each other.

If anxiety and insecurity are constantly derailing your dating efforts, I’m here to help. You crave a deep relationship but keep ending up in dynamics that hurt you and make you anxious, or potential partners call you “needy” or “clingy” and leave before things get serious. You spiral if they don't text you back for a few hours. You find yourself over-thinking everything and worrying that you'll scare them away if you share your boundaries and needs. So you don't say no even when your whole body is shouting it. You put so much effort into making it work but you just can’t get them to do the same. You’re exhausted and confused.
