ABOUT ME

I am a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), a Certified Hypnotherapist and Certified HypnoBirthing® Childbirth Educator. My educational background includes a Bachelors of Arts degree from Western University, followed by a Masters of Arts in Counselling Psychology degree from Yorkville University. I have also completed all the necessary coursework and core rotations towards a degree in medicine. My background and experience helps me understand my client’s challenges from a unique perspective.

I am passionate about supporting young adults and adults on their journey towards mental and emotional well-being. With a diverse background encompassing Hypnotherapy and HypnoBirthing Childbirth education, I offer an integrative approach to therapy, understanding that no single approach fits all.

My practice is founded on the belief that each person possesses the innate ability to heal and grow. I approach therapy with a deep commitment to meeting clients where they are at, acknowledging and honoring their unique cultural backgrounds and individual experiences. As a child of immigrant parents, I understand the complexities and nuances of navigating between multiple cultures and finding your place in the world.

I strive to create a safe, empathetic, compassionate and inclusive space where you feel heard, respected, and valued. When you feel safe, you can more comfortably explore your emotions, regain your sense of self, and rebuild your life with empowerment and resilience. My therapeutic approach is person-centered, focusing on empowering individuals to recognize their own strengths and resources.

Central to my philosophy is the belief that everything you need for healing resides within you. My role as a therapist is to support you in accessing and nurturing these inner resources, guiding you towards a path of self-discovery, growth, and empowerment. Together, we will work collaboratively to navigate challenges, cultivate self-awareness, and foster lasting positive change.

I support clients through a wide variety of challenges, including anxiety, depression, trauma, grief and healing from narcissistic abuse. I understand the complex dynamics of narcissistic relationships and provide clients with the validation, support, and tools they need to break free from cycles of manipulation and foster their sense of self-worth and autonomy.

I am deeply committed to ongoing education and professional development, staying abreast of the latest research and therapeutic techniques to ensure the highest quality of care for my clients. I currently have training and experience using the following evidence based modalities in my practice:

• Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

• Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)

• Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT/Tapping)

• Hypnotherapy and various Hypnotherapy Techniques

• Internal Family Systems (IFS)

• Integrative Trauma and Attachment Treatment Model (ITATM)

• Neuro-linguistic Programming (NLP)

• Solution Focused Therapy (SFT)

• Somatic Experiencing Trauma and Attachment Informed

If you're ready to embark on a journey of self-exploration and transformation, I am here to support you every step of the way. Your healing journey starts here, and I am honored to accompany you on this path towards a brighter, more fulfilling future.
