My Story
I have over 10 years experience supporting people with anxiety, depression, substance and alcohol use concerns, postpartum depression, PTSD, body image, disordered eating, ADHD, Acquired Brain Injury, and trauma. I am a Registered Psychotherapist with a Master of Arts Degree in Counselling Psychology from Yorkville University and a Bachelor Degree in Psychology from Brock University.
I have worked with individuals from a myriad of backgrounds providing empathetic support and instilling hope for the future. My belief is that therapy is a partnership and a collaborative process that focuses on creating an atmosphere where meaningful and impactful conversations can take place to explore a person’s inner strengths and therapeutic goals.
In my sessions I utilize approaches such as narrative therapy, cognitive behavioural therapy, solution-focused brief therapy, dialectical behavioural therapy and mindfulness-based practices to thoughtfully provide a safe space for healing.
I am passionate about continuing to learn and develop my toolkit in order to provide outstanding professional, holistic and relevant therapy for people of all backgrounds and walks of life.
