Thank you for taking the time to make time for yourself! Therapy can be a difficult and scary process, but I am more than happy to walk alongside you on this journey. My approach to therapy is that therapy can be extremely versatile, and should be tailored to fit you like a brand new outfit. In a non-judgemental and shame free environment, we are able to explore these needs in therapy and help you reach the goals you set out to achieve. Sometimes, all we need is a safe space to explore ourselves, and what has happened in our lives to land us in our current place in the world. My hope is to provide exactly that.

Cultural values, family history and rigid expectations about our future can shape the stories we have about ourselves. These stories can begin to feel heavy and leave us feeling “not good enough.” I work with individuals who are struggling with anxiety, imposter syndrome, self-worth and relationships. Together we work to understand your relationship with yourself, and the impacts of your environment on your wellbeing. I support in developing healthy boundaries and coping strategies. I use both exploratory methods of Internal Family Systems and Narrative Therapy as well as skills based approaches like Cognitive Behavioural Therapy.

A graduate of the Toronto Art Therapy Institute, I am a Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Art Therapist, and a Certified Clinical Anxiety Treatment Professional Throughout my professional career I have worked with children, adolescents, and adults within a variety of settings including children’s mental health, addiction and mental healthcare and long-term care. My youngest client to date was 4 years old and the oldest was 103. It’s exciting to witness how art therapy can be successful with all ages (and no skill in art making is required)!

I ensure a safe space is cultivated by taking a person-centered approach; ensuring cultivation of a safe space through kindness, openness, empathy, and compassion. My greatest passion as a Clinician is to show how there is uniqueness and restoration in one's story, one's pain and collection of struggles.

You’re not crazy for wanting to make sense of it. You’ve watched the videos, “how do I know if I’m in a relationship with a narcissist?” and you’re feeling isolated, embarrassed, confused. They’re talking about your actual life, but you don’t think you’re strong enough to leave. You’ve rationalized, communicated, begged. Maybe they’ll change, but they’re not the problem. You’re the one that needs to change. They say this, so it must be true, right? I need you to know that you’re not stupid or weak for staying. I was once in an abusive relationship with a narcissist, entangled in the chaos, and I doubted my strength to leave.
