Therapy can be a daunting prospect. Sharing your life story with a stranger in the hope of gaining perspective and solutions to life's challenges can sometimes feel overwhelming. However, there's good news. I believe in providing a safe space for collaboration with my clients, where confidentiality is always maintained, and they feel empowered to achieve their therapeutic goals. As a biracial, bilingual (French/English) intern therapist with a background in education, I am dedicated to helping pre-teens, teens and adults work through conflict, overcome low esteem, anxiety and depression, and manage academic/personal stress.

If you find yourself ready to actively work through a moment of struggle, I think that noble and brave, and would love to help you navigate the complexities of this process.

Feeling overwhelmed, stressed, or frustrated before your day begins? Does the negative voice in your head make you doubt yourself or feel guilty or worried? Maybe it feels like you barely survive each day because you're juggling so much, trying to please everyone. Are your hopes being pushed aside, making you feel frustrated, anxious, or insecure? As a parent or caregiver, you know the exhaustion, self-doubt, and frustration are real! Imagine what it could be like if you could stop the spiralling thoughts, feel more secure in your relationships, and more like yourself again (or - begin to discover who you actually are!).
