When we embrace our trials and tribulations, and face them head on, we begin to take responsibility for ourselves and our experience of life. This fosters a connection with the source of our power that builds resilience to manage whatever may come. Developing the resourcefulness required to fashion a life that is fulfilling and supportive of our overall well-being is an ever-evolving process, and can be more clearly navigated with the help of a trusted professional.
Using a collaborative person-centred, culturally-, and trauma-informed approach, I aim to empower people to improve their quality of life through organic and systematic processes.
I can assist in addressing depression, anxiety, excessive stress, emotional regulation, interpersonal conflict, and life transitions amongst other challenges. I have extensive experience working with people impacted by Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD).
My lived experience helps me relate to my fellow members of the immigrant, BIPOC, and 2SLGBTQ+ communities, as well as those in polyamorous and Ethically Non-Monogamous (ENM) relationships.
In my personal time I enjoy cycling, swimming, and reading in my hammock. My creative outlets include writing, acting, and expressing the clown within. My happy place is a warm coastal beach.

Trauma isn’t always loud. It can appear in subtle emotional, psychological, and physical ways, often rooted in “quiet” experiences like chronic stress or feeling overwhelmed. It may show up as anxiety, hypervigilance, emotional numbness, difficulty with trust or boundaries, perfectionism, people-pleasing, low self-worth, or avoidance. The body can react too, with chronic tension, headaches, digestive issues, fatigue, sleep problems, or heightened responses to stress. When these feelings build, it’s important to pause, breathe, and seek support. Understanding that everyone experiences these feelings at some point can help us navigate through difficulties with greater empathy and compassion for ourselves.
My commitment to advocating for mental health inspired me to delve deeper into the field of psychology to better address the challenges faced by individuals and communities. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Wilfrid Laurier University and am currently a Master’s in Counselling Psychology candidate. On a community level, I serve as a crisis responder at a distress centre, providing emotional support, crisis intervention, and suicide prevention services to individuals experiencing mental health challenges.
As a therapist, my goal is to guide you in exploring your thoughts, emotions, and experiences to help you gain a deeper understanding of who you are and what you want to achieve. My approach is grounded in empathy and compassion, creating a safe space for you to process difficult emotions. Through our work together, I aim to empower you to take charge of your life, build resilience, and overcome life’s challenges.
I work with individuals and couples facing a wide range of issues, including anxiety, depression, stress, relationship difficulties, and major life transitions. I offer a client-centred and integrative approach to therapy, using a range of modalities that are trauma-informed and culturally responsive.
No matter what stage you find yourself at in your healing journey, I want you to know that every step you take is significant. Whether you’re just beginning to acknowledge your struggles or you’ve made considerable progress and are exploring deeper layers of healing, it’s important to embrace the process. Your healing matters.

To meet your individual needs and goals, I employ an integrative approach where I utilize techniques and interventions from multiple modalities such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Narrative Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Experiential Therapy, and Emotion Focused Therapy. I am also proficient in Applied Behaviour Analysis (ABA) principles having worked with individuals with autism and intellectual disabilities for seven years. My lived and shared experiences also allow me to recognize the challenges faced by immigrants and the BIPOC community.
I understand that the pressures of the world can be a lot to handle at times, but my hope is to empower and support you towards growth, build effective coping strategies, and remind you of the gem that you truly are. So, I invite you to take my hand as we embark on this journey together to get you shining bright again.

I like to use an integrative approach, drawing from frameworks such as cognitive-behavioural, psychodynamic and mindfulness-based therapies. I operate from a person-centred, culturally informed lens. My personal experiences help me understand challenges including immigration and intergenerational conflict, as well as issues faced by marginalized communities.
In addition, my work with neurodiverse clients allows me to adapt my approach to best suit your needs. I aim to provide a safe and non-judgemental environment where we can work together to reach your goals.

Our life journey is always going to be filled with ups and downs, and although we have the strength and tools to handle most of the downs, occasionally we may need some support, encouragement, or a listening ear. I understand how upsetting and difficult these experiences may be and hope to build a partnership with you so we can face these challenges together. Travelling together on this journey, we will explore your needs, experiences, and goals, and work to uncover your strengths and resources so that we may identify and implement some solutions to the difficulties you are experiencing. I specialize in working with individuals who are experiencing difficulties with stress, anxiety, depression, self-worth, trauma, emotional regulation, suicidal thoughts, self-harm, and interpersonal conflict. Some of my personal hobbies include travelling, hiking, and reading. I also enjoy completing various do-it-yourself crafts, such as painting-by-numbers!
