I am dedicated to supporting individuals, couples and families throughout the therapeutic process. I will lower the initial feelings of intimidation for therapy by providing warmth, empathy and unconditional positive regard throughout the journey. I am committed to using a collaborative client-centered approach throughout the therapeutic process supporting clients experiencing relationship, identity, emotional and self-esteem issues and other life challenges.

My ultimate goal is to help clients develop long-lasting life changes by enhancing their strengths, developing healthy coping skills and habits and improving their overall quality of life. I strive to ensure that my clients feel heard, validated and can comfortably express their concerns while building the confidence and independence they need to successfully handle future life challenges. I look forward to supporting my clients in building a life worth living by working towards greater emotional and relational health.

I have a Masters in Counselling Psychology with a Registered Psychotherapist Status through the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario (CRPO). I also have certifications in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT). I have experience using other forms of therapy as well such as Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Internal Family Systems (IFS) and Solutions Focused interventions. I have worked with many children, teens, adults, couples and families experiencing depression, anxiety, stress, relationship, trauma, identity, life transitions, self-esteem and eating disorder challenges.

Prior to this, I worked at the Canadian Mental Health Association as a Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Coach for many years, helping individuals experiencing depression, anxiety and stress through the use of CBT workbooks. I have extensive experience working with diverse clients of all ages and have helped clients successfully achieve their therapeutic goals.
