My counselling approach is rooted in a big-picture perspective, recognizing that healing happens within the complex interplay of personal experiences, relationships, and broader societal systems. Grounded in an intersectional, social justice lens, I acknowledge how factors like power, privilege, and systemic oppression shape mental health. I believe that healing is always possible—no matter a person’s past or present circumstances—when they are met with authenticity, compassion, and the right support.
I believe healing happens in the context of safety, connection, and self-discovery. My approach to counselling is rooted in an intersectional, social justice lens that recognizes how systems of power, privilege, and oppression shape mental health and well-being. Every client brings a unique story shaped by their identities, relationships, and lived experiences, and I strive to create a space that honours their resilience while addressing the structural barriers that impact their healing.
I became a counsellor because I’ve experienced firsthand the power of therapy—how being truly seen, heard, and supported can create space for healing and change. My own journey showed me that no matter how overwhelming life feels, growth is always possible with the right support. With a background in working with trauma, anxiety, and systemic barriers, I’ve had the privilege of walking alongside others as they reclaim their stories and rediscover their strength. I bring both professional expertise and a deep personal understanding of the courage it takes to heal, creating a space where clients feel safe, empowered, and truly valued.
