  • My Approach

    Although my primary approach to therapy is cognitive-behavioural, I draw from other modalities such as Solutions-focused, emotionally-focused, and mindfulness-based to name a few. My primary focus is to meet you where you are, so that you get to be yourself in a safe and comfortable environment, whether that is a supportive reflection or a more active-directive approach sprinkled with some humour! Therapy (and life) can be uncomfortable and challenging, and I want to make sure you have the tools that work best for you to be able to deal with the challenges that come your way.

  • My Philosophy

    Whether you are trying therapy for the first time, or have been working towards your goals for a while, I am here to meet you where you're at. I believe in a client-centred, collaborative approach to therapy and healing can happen in a place where you feel respected, safe, and heard. My approach to therapy is one that is anti-oppressive, trauma-informed, and intersectional. As an immigrant woman myself, I understand how systemic oppression can impact mental well-being and I hope to help clients cultivate self-discovery, empowerment, and connection to further their healing within systemic barriers.

  • My Why

    I became a counselling psychologist for the very simple reason of wanting to help others! Growing up I knew I wanted to help others in some way, shape, or form, and going through school, I learned about counselling. I knew immediately that it was what I wanted to pursue. It feels incredibly natural to me to listen to people's stories. Going through graduate school helped me cultivate those skills of a listener and start helping people find meaning and empowerment by digging deeper into those stories. I believe that everyone has a story to tell and becoming a therapist gives me the opportunity to hear yours! Additionally, it helps me connect with you deeply and wholeheartedly to ensure I am able to help you heal.
