Hello, I am glad you are here, taking the first step on your path to emotional wellness! We all have experiences that impact our ability to show up in the world as our best selves. And it is common to feel like we are failing. Our brains are wired to pay more attention to negative/distressing thoughts and it can be very difficult to separate ourselves from the repetitive and unhelpful narratives which hold us back. By being non-judgmental and empathetic, I can help you unpack your experiences, examine your troublesome thoughts and behaviours, and explore how you can work towards living a purposeful, peaceful and meaningful life.

When we aren't feeling like the best version of ourselves, it's tough to engage in our lives and relationships in the way we would like to; our daily stress adds up and pulls us away from the things and people that are important to us. Whether little things in your life are piling up and becoming overwhelming or you are in the midst of a major life transition, accessing support is an important first step to living a values-driven life. Dedicating time and space to process our thoughts with an unbiased listener can build the insight we need to thrive.

Not accepting new clients at this time- new referrals September 2024. Throughout the course of my career, I have grown and strengthened my appreciation for a holistic treatment approach, understanding that the obstacles to health are often multi-faceted. My goal in therapy is to help individuals get back to living their most valued lives, whatever that may look like. As a therapist, my aim is to support clients who are experiencing any combination of stress, anxiety, depression, life adjustment challenges and/or relationship issues.

I am a Master’s level Counselling Psychology graduate with over 15 years of experience supporting children 0-12 and their families within the early years sector.

These experiences have taught me about the incredible power of resilience, curiosity, and human connection.

Attempting to avoid painful or distressing thoughts and feelings is natural - we all do it. However, the more we struggle with and try to control our emotional experiences, the more challenges it creates. As a Registered Social Worker with the OCSWSSW, I utilize a client-centered approach and draw mainly on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Polyvagal Theory to guide my work with clients. Noticing and naming our feelings is the first step to gaining more control over our bodies and learning to live a meaningful life that aligns with our values and goals.

Accepting new clients! Your thoughts never stop, you have a permanent pit in your stomach, and life feels both overwhelmingly busy, yet empty at the same time. You do your best to manage the constant anxiety spirals about school, work, friends, your body, your relationship, and/or the future, but the relief you get from scrolling social media, drinking/smoking/eating, and pushing your thoughts away is temporary. Everyone keeps telling you "you just need to try harder/be less lazy/stop worrying!" but you feel that's all you are ever trying to do! Exhausting, isn't it? Let's chat about how we can shift this.

I work collaboratively with my clients to find ways to manage their problems, so they can get back to living a fulfilling life.

I have worked in a variety of mental health agencies providing counselling to students, adults and individuals from different sociocultural backgrounds, gender expressions, sexual orientations and gender identities.

There’s a lot that holds us back from trying therapy. We may think we need a serious problem to see a therapist. But therapy is for everyone. Because, as humans, we experience sadness, stress, anxiety, and emotional dysregulation. The only qualification to go to therapy is to be human. You may ask, why not talk to a friend? Because friends aren’t properly trained to listen. As you attend therapy, patterns and insights begin to emerge, old wounds open up, and traumas are acknowledged. Going to therapy is a sign of sanity, a commitment to your mental health and a better future.
