I believe the best approach to client care involves a thorough and sound understanding of both psychological and neuropsychological factors that contribute to individual health. For this reason, I value the assessment process and utilize theoretical assessment knowledge to provide the best care and evidence-based services for my clients. My background in brain-based behaviour, knowledge and application of various neuropsychological/ cognitive theories, and dedication to client-centered assessment ensures comprehensive testing of clients’ needs.

I believe the willingness to reflect and explore one’s inner experience is a key foundation to healing and change. However, it can be challenging to open up and be vulnerable in beginning this process, and I want to acknowledge the courage it took for you to take this first step toward your healing and personal growth. Through a trusting and collaborative therapeutic relationship, I aim to provide a safe and supportive environment to foster self-exploration, awareness, and self-compassion. I use an integrative, client centered approach, and strive to empower all my clients to be active participants in their own journey.

The goal of psychotherapy is similar to the goal of life, which is to live the best life possible. But life is full of change and challenges, some of which we embrace and even pursue full heartedly, some of which we are initially shocked by but are able to manage with minimal disruption to our lives. At other times such experiences can be disorienting, leaving us feeling lost, confused, hopeless, and at times unable to move forward. If you are feeling stuck in any facet of your life, psychotherapy can be a valuable means of re-orienting yourself.

Your life feels like it is falling apart and you are being pulled in so many different directions. Your employer needs you; your family needs you, and so do your friends. You feel overwhelmed, defeated, anxious, and depressed. You are trying to hold it all together but it is catching up to you and you can’t do it anymore. You give so much to everyone else and there is nothing left of you. You have lost yourself and you just can’t cope anymore.

How are you doing right now? Have you taken a minute to check in with yourself today? Day by day we can get consumed by the highs and lows of life and forget to take a moment to rest. In session together, I want to help create a safe space where you take that compassionate break without feeling guilty. The most uncomfortable feeling can often times be sitting with discomfort or being a friend to yourself. In our space we can work to unpack the stress surrounding your day to day worries and look at strategies to help foster self-compassion and push you closer towards the life you want to live and the person you hope to be.

I imagine that you have found yourself here today because you are looking for answers to a multitude of questions. I can imagine too that you might be hurting or struggling and in need of support and relief. Perhaps you are confused about how you are feeling but know that you are in need of a change. I believe that we all need help at times in our lives and don’t have to go it alone. You have arrived at this moment in time with your own unique story to tell. I believe that what you have to say and what you are feeling is valid and deserves an empathic, non-judgmental place in which to share and make sense of it.

My therapy practice is deeply rooted in celebrating 2SLGBTQ identities, neurodivergence, harm reduction, building a better relationship with your body and eating, and unpacking the impacts of trauma. If you tend to intellectualize your emotions and struggle to really feel them, my somatic and arts-based approach may work for you. You may already have a clear idea of what you'd like to discuss in therapy - or you may not! Either way is more than welcome.

Are you seeking to better understand and navigate your relationship with yourself, others, and broader societal dynamics? Do you wish to gain insight into your emotions, needs, and boundaries or gain the tools to courageously express them? Perhaps you want to experiment with your agency or tend to old hurts with compassion and intentionality. If you feel your healing would benefit from working with a queer person of colour committed to anti-oppression and anti-racism, then I would be honoured to walk alongside you. Even at the best of times, life is challenging. Working together can help make the hard things less hard.

Do you feel like you are unable to calm? Do you feel anxious and judged by others? Do you feel restless, irritable, and stuck in "on" mode in this ready-to-react mode? Do you have persistent negative thinking, emotional fluctuations, and repeating the same actions and patterns? Do you feel stuck and unable to lift your mood? These are among some of the many symptoms of trauma. Trauma changes the nervous system and the ability to regulate our nervous system is directly correlated with our mental health. EMDR, CBT, DBT, and Somatic therapy can help heal the nervous system, by processing and releasing trauma stored in the body.
