Life comes with a lot of ups and downs, and sometimes it can feel overwhelming, like we just can’t cope. Taking that first step to reach out for support, although daunting, shows courage—and I’m here to walk beside you. I will work with you to ensure you feel heard, navigate your emotions, and develop effective coping strategies. Together, we’ll strengthen your self-confidence and work toward lasting change that aligns with your values, goals, and unique experiences.

As a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) and psychotherapist-in-training, I practice from a strengths-based approach which means we’ll explore not only the strengths you’re already aware of, but also the qualities and resilience that may be hidden or underutilized. We’ll build on these strengths to create positive change and healing, helping you move forward in ways that are uniquely yours.

Who you are as a person is so much more than the challenges you’ve faced. It’s about the essence of who you are—the strength, resilience, and growth you’ve shown as you’ve overcome adversity. If you’re feeling unsure or hesitant, let’s connect for a free consultation. Together, we can explore whether we’re the right fit and take that first step toward healing.

Do you often find yourself feeling overwhelmed by your emotions, struggling to manage persistent worries that disrupt your daily life and affect your relationships? Maybe you are dealing with obsessive thoughts that lead to feelings of isolation and self-doubt? As a bilingual (EN/FR) psychotherapist-in-training, my mission is to create a compassionate and welcoming environment where you can explore these emotional challenges.

In our sessions, we will focus on rediscovering joy and motivation, while also equipping you with practical tools and skills that will enable you to thrive independently.

Life events, traumas, big and small, can really throw you off course and leave a lasting impact. They may affect you at many levels including mentally, emotionally, and physically. These experiences can taint how you perceive yourself and others, negatively impact your relationships and your work, and it can be hard to break away from their hold on you. You might come to realize that you are not living your best life and wish you could feel like yourself again. It would be great to feel resilient and be able to live life more intentionally. And this is exactly what I hope to help you with. ​

My areas of focus as a bilingual Registered Psychotherapist for 15 years include anxiety, depression, challenging life transitions, grief, post-concussion syndrome, post-traumatic stress disorder and complex PTSD, sleep difficulties, relationship issues, and stress management. Since 2007, I have been specializing in treating various forms of trauma, both recent and past, with a broad spectrum of clients including BIPOC and LGTBQ2S+ clients. I believe traumas are a result of events, big or small, that can leave lasting emotional, psychological, physical, and spiritual impacts. We often hear of the ‘big’ traumas, but every day events such as bullying, childhood neglect, rejection, injuries, or a medical diagnosis can all have a traumatic effect on a person.

I am a psychodynamic, client-centred therapist. I integrate complementary methodologies to offer a personalized approach tailored to each person. I often include EMDR, Brainspotting, somatic and parts work, and CBT therapies to my intervention. With compassion and understanding, I aim to create an inclusive space and work with each individual to help them build on their strengths and address personal life challenges.
