I am a Registered Psychotherapist whose practice is grounded in trauma-informed and culturally inclusive care. I approach therapy with an understanding that our emotional world is shaped by past experiences, systemic factors, and cultural identity, and I strive to ensure my work reflects and honours the diversity of each client’s background. My professional journey stems from a deep commitment to improving mental health accessibility particularly for marginalized populations and supporting individuals, couples, and families.
I believe that healing happens in connection – that we are not meant to face our pain alone. Many of us carry life’s hardest moments in silence, believing we have to manage on our own. If you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unfulfilled, and struggling with emotions such as anger, grief, sadness, or low self-esteem, you’re not alone. I aim to create a genuine, trusting therapeutic relationship where our work together is both meaningful and practical, grounded in your values and the life you hope to create. I understand the delicacy of balancing personal healing with family and cultural expectations.
Relationships are central to our emotional well-being, and much of my work focuses on healing relational trauma, including C-PTSD, which can deeply affect our sense of self, safety, and connection with others. This may involve processing experiences such as abuse, separation, or divorce, as well as exploring patterns like enmeshment, co-dependency, and people-pleasing that often stem from early family dynamics. Together, we explore attachment histories and intergenerational wounds while developing skills to set healthy boundaries and foster emotional recovery. I am also passionate about supporting individuals navigating burnout, emotional overload, and work-life balance, helping them find space for rest, clarity, and reconnection with themselves.
For many, becoming a parent can also surface old attachment patterns and bring awareness to how the past influences the way we show up for ourselves and our families. I see this as an opportunity to not just understand what has happened, but to create a new story – one rooted in growth, healing, and intention for the life you wish to lead and the legacy you want to build for future generations.
I also specialize in supporting parents through all stages of the reproductive journey – including fertility struggles, pregnancy and birth trauma, loss, perinatal mood disorders, and the transition into parenthood known as matrescence. I help parents make sense of their evolving identities and experiences, guiding them to show up for themselves with compassion amidst guilt, overwhelm, and exhaustion.
In my therapeutic approach, I draw from psychodynamic, attachment-based, and Inner Child frameworks to help clients uncover and heal unconscious patterns and early wounds that continue to shape present experiences. For present-focused and practical support, I integrate DBT and CBT to build grounding, emotional regulation, and safety skills. I also incorporate Internal Family Systems (IFS) and somatic therapy for a holistic mind-body approach that supports deeper self-awareness and integrated healing.
