Ma charge de travail est chargée

I primarily work with adults and couples. I use an integrative approach (schema focused therapy, attachment based therapy, Emotion focused therapy, Solution-focused therapy) to help my clients find solutions and face challenges that negatively impact their lives.

My experiences have made me equipped to work with adults struggling with behavioural disturbances related to depression, anxiety (social anxiety, panic attacks, stress), relationship issues (familial, romantic), trauma, abuse, suicide risk, self-harm, and life/developmental transitions.

“In the autumnal events of my own experience, I am easily fixated on surface appearances – on the decline of meaning, the decay of relationships, the death of work. And yet if I look more deeply, I may see the myriad of possibilities being planted to bear fruit in some season yet to come.” -Parker Palmer

It takes courage to reach out for help. I’m here to help you find healing in the place you are right now. Together, we will engage in self-exploration, and my goal is to provide a safe, compassionate, and warm space to learn, develop, and achieve your goals. We will work on exploring your resiliency and building skills to cope.

As a therapist-in-training, I have used an eclectic approach, and modalities including solution-focused, person-centered, acceptance and commitment therapy, cognitive-behavioural, psychodynamic, and mindfulness-based interventions.

In previous work at a youth detention centre, I have provided care in areas of stress, trauma, impulsivity, interpersonal conflict, emotional regulation, behavioural difficulties, grief, and sleep hygiene.

I step into the therapeutic space as a woman of colour and a psychotherapist. I have witnessed how as humans we exist within systems which shape our experiences and lives. Understanding this, I am dedicated to practicing with a trauma-informed, intersectional, and anti-oppressive approach in sessions.

My approach is characterized by a gentle and creative method that encourages exploration, offers support, and nurtures fresh perspectives during our sessions. My professional journey spans more than a decade, during which I have worked with children, adolescents, and adults in various therapeutic settings.

I hold a master’s degree in creative arts therapies with a concentration in art therapy from Concordia University. I am a registered psychotherapist (qualifying) through the CRPO. My areas of expertise include, ADHD, Anxiety, Depression, Burnout, Racial trauma, Grief & Loss, and Relationships. My therapeutic toolkit is an eclectic blend of Psychodynamic, Compassion Focused, Trauma-Informed, Person-Centered, Anti-Oppressive, Strength-Based, and Humanistic approaches.

I extend an open invitation to folks of all ages and backgrounds to connect with me to explore whether I would be a good fit in their healing journey. You don’t need any prior experience in art to engage in art therapy sessions. Art making can be weaved into sessions while traditional talk therapy sessions are always welcomed.
