  • My Approach

    My therapy style is predominantly from a Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) lens, as I think our core beliefs shape the way we navigate the world. I also incorporate Solution-Focused Therapy (SFT) and positive psychology because I believe it can be too easy to be consumed by our problems. I want to cater my therapy sessions to exactly what you need at the moment, whether serious and in-depth or humorous and lighthearted. My primary goal is your comfort and success on your healing journey.

  • My Philosophy

    Our mind is our most powerful asset but can also be our worst enemy. I believe the therapy process is a journey achieved through shifting perspectives or having an unbiased voice to empower a change we didn’t know we could make. Through empathy and vulnerability, we can create a connection within ourselves and our world. You are more capable than you think and stronger than you know.

  • My Why

    Ever since a young age, I have always been described as a “helper” and have always felt the happiest when I impacted the lives of others, even in a small way. As I grew older, this helper complex transformed into a curiosity about people, specifically their inner battles and fascinating stories that often go unheard. I decided to become a therapist because I wanted a job where I could hear people’s stories and help them navigate the battles that no one sees. I wanted a job where I could continuously help others while also learning from every client I met.
