I can appreciate that life can be challenging at times; whether you are feeling stuck, struggling to navigate your day-to-day, want support in exploring your life, or how to navigate and enhance your relationships. You may need someone to listen without judgement, support you in understanding who you are and how to love yourself, and teach you new ways of navigating life and cultivating your goals. Regardless of why you have found yourself seeking support, I am glad you have.
I believe in working together as a team throughout the therapeutic journey. I aim to create a safe, compassionate, and non-judgmental space where you and I can work together to understand the path that got you to where you are today, cultivate the awareness of how it has influenced your current situation and gain the skills to cope, make changes and/or work towards improving your life. I strive to create a space where you can explore your fears, dreams, who you are and where you want to go with your life. I aim to work with you to understand your individuality, take into account your culture and worldview and build a treatment plan that aligns with your needs and identity.
Professional Background
I graduated from the University of Guelph, with an Honours Bachelor’s Degree in Psychology and I obtained my Master’s Degree in Counselling Psychology at Yorkville University. I am a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario (CRPO).
I have experience working with individuals struggling with anxiety, depression, burnout, life transitions, grief, body image, and self-esteem. I specialize in supporting the 2SLGBTQIA+ community and aim to create a safe space where you can explore and discuss any difficulties you are experiencing and work towards creating a path that honours and aligns with who you are. Additionally, I offer relationship and couples therapy because I believe everyone deserves a sexual and romantic relationship that is strong, healthy, and fulfilling. I work with partners in managing conflict, gaining effective communication skills, and deepening intimacy and friendship.
I have specialized training in grief and bereavement, relationship therapy, and working with the LGBTQ2S+ community. My main therapeutic approaches include Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), Mindfulness-based Interventions, Narrative Therapy, Somatic, Person-Centered, and Gottman Method. Though these are my approaches, I take an integrative and holistic approach and want to get to know you, focus on your individual needs and preferences, and ensure that my approach aligns with you.
On a Personal Note…
When I am outside my role as therapist you will find me hiking, practicing yoga, cooking, and writing poetry. I am passionate about learning about health and wellness, and you will often find me with a book in my hand or several tabs open, researching ways to support myself and others.
My journey to psychotherapy came from my own challenges as an adolescent and young adult. Throughout my life, I have sought out support and engaged in self-reflection to gain an understanding of my past and my present and gain the skills to navigate my future. I understand that life can throw curveballs at you and those times can result in feelings of stress, grief, burnout, and sadness. Due to my personal experience with these feelings, I understand the importance of support that is compassionate, empathetic, non-judgmental, and collaborative.
