I specialize in working with interpersonal relationships, emotion regulation, anxiety, depression, and grief.

The quality of our interpersonal relationships plays a crucial role in our daily well-being and functioning. A sense of belonging within our intimate relationships and community is a fundamental human need. This deep-seated interest has led me to specialize in working with individuals, couples, and families for the past 10 years. Throughout my career, I have developed an open and dynamic understanding of individual, relational, and social issues, which I consider inseparable.

I believe in the human being and his or her capacity to re-build. I find that there is nothing more important than a willingness to develop compassion for oneself and one's situation. For me, the therapy is a place to reconnect with emotions, and begin a very important journey within the supportive therapeutic relationship.

Grief can show up in our lives through a variety of lived experiences. Loss of a family member, pet or a close friend can bring up feelings of grief but so can significant personal growth, completing an educational program, becoming a parent or caretaker and/or changing careers. You may be wondering... Who am I now? and... How do I find meaning in this role? It may feel difficult to connect to your joy and you may find it difficult to cope with the changes in your life . Wanting to feel engaged in your life and connected to others is normal and not being sure where to start can feel challenging in the midst of grieving past roles.

Hello, I am glad you're here. I hope that you find what you’re looking for and, if you feel comfortable, perhaps I can lend you a helping hand along the way. I believe that nurturing a deeper understanding of ourselves, others, and the contexts we live in; recognizing the parts that we can and cannot change; and grieving what we should have received but didn't, can allow us more meaning and contentment as we move in life. I hope to accompany you in your process, whether you feel stuck in repeating patterns, are facing difficult situations, and/or are trying to find balance and fulfillment in the various roles you hold.

Relationships can be exhilarating, and they can also be challenging and unsettling. Are you in a new or established relationship, wondering why you're not feeling happy, why it's difficult to have meaningful discussions with your partner, and why you keep having the same disagreements over and over again? Are you contemplating marriage/commitment, wondering what the future may bring? Have betrayal/infidelity infiltrated your relationship, shattering your sense of trust? Maybe you’re considering ending your relationship or you’ve separated and want to explore recommitting? If you recognize yourself, you are at the right place.

I am a licensed couple and family therapist and psychotherapist. In 2019, I was the recipient of the clinical excellence award for couple and family therapy from McGill University. I received a Master's in psychology in 2009. My area of focus is on helping people understand their relationship patterns and helping them build more meaningful and stable connections with others. I understand that right now you may feel that as though you have too much on your plate and that you are struggling to balance all of life's demands. Many people do not take the time to focus on themselves and invest in their emotional well- being.

I believe that seeking support from another human being is a very natural thing to do. As a therapist, I believe that my humanity is an asset in supporting clients as they work through challenges, developing a deeper understanding of their lives. As a counsellor and art therapist, I focus on creating a therapeutic relationship based on trust, where I bring a compassionate, nonjudgmental approach paired with my training to help clients work through whatever challenges they are facing. I have a special passion for working with immigrants and refugees: as a newcomer to Canada, I understand the struggles that are often presented.
