In addition to anxiety and depression, my specialty areas of focus are: 1. OCD (with its subtypes) and intrusive thoughts. Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) is a core part of the work. 2. ADHD and executive function skills building, such as time management, focus, impulse control, emotion regulation and organization.

We all encounter moments in life that can be challenging... whether you feel stuck, have received worrisome news, disenchanted with your relationships, overwhelmed with school, or dissatisfied in your career - something's missing. If you yearn for something more, compelled to make a change, it's time to dismantle these patterns that no longer serve you and establish choices that truly matter. I can show you how.

Have you ever wondered why, despite all your efforts, some emotional problems or conflicts fail to heal? I believe dysregulation is at the heart of the problem. Crying uncontrollably, racing thoughts or spacing out, flying into rage or shutting down, are all examples of dysregulation. If you've tried therapy before but you're still struggling, it's likely that traditional therapy like CBT, which does not effectively address the nervous system response to stress, has left you still reacting in these old ways. Sensorimotor somatic psychotherapy works directly with the nervous system to down regulate anxiety and upregulate depression.

We all have times when we feel overwhelmed by unexpected changes in our family life, relationships, careers or health - times when strong emotions are difficult to manage alone. Perhaps you are experiencing divorce, looking for a career change, deeply saddening by the state of our planet, or wondering what comes next. Maybe you long for a different life, but don't know what to move towards. You might be a high-achieving professional whose drive for success has left you feeling isolated and disconnected. You may be an exhausted or frustrated parent/partner, or grieving the loss of someone you love. You may be male/female/non-binary.

If you are ready to dive into your healing journey - to understand the patterns and where, why and how you are stuck, and how to get unstuck - then I might be the therapist for you. My approach is different - I offer longer therapy sessions (often 90 minute sessions) so that we can get to the deep healing work that is often required for you to make the shifts that you want for yourself. We go at the pace you need but with longer sessions we tend to get there more quickly, allowing you to get on with your life in the ways that align with your values, goals and vision for yourself.

Years ago, at a health consultation, I was asked a trauma related question that caused me to reflect on the connection of the mind and body. It completely confounded me yet, it stayed with me. As soon as I returned home I opened my laptop and began to research trauma and the body. And, what I found led to my realization of the significance of an embodied approach to healing. It also began my journey into the field of psychotherapy.

Are you feeling stuck and having a hard time seeing your way forward? A change in your life can leave you feeling hopeless, empty, confused, or lost. Finding yourself in a new role, or a new phase of life (being a student, living on your own for the first time, finding yourself as a caregiver), ending a relationship, or loosing a loved one, may throw you on a path that you didn’t expect and have a hard time navigating. Right now, you can't see your way forward, but you want to find a way through the weeds so you don't feel so bogged down and overwhelmed.

I identify as a cis-gender, racialized Asian woman whose approach embraces a wholistic, reflective, equity-seeking, anti-oppressive/anti-racist decolonized lens. It's been an honour to be welcomed into many diverse communities through 20+ years in education, support and case management with racialized communities, gender diverse individuals, Indigenous peoples, people living with HIV/AIDS, newcomer populations, people who use substances, as well as sexual trauma survivors. The evolution of my practice includes a metaphysical component that acknowledges the interplay of mind/body/spirit
