Great to meet you!

I am Trauma Trained Clinician, Certified Compassion Fatigue Professional and graduate of the Immigration Institute. I've worked in the Psychiatric Emergency Rooms and have extensive experience with survivors of trauma, legal advocacy and a cohort of mental/behavioural concerns.

My approach to therapy

With compassion, relatability and empathy I build a strong therapeutic alliance with my clients. I believe that you do not need to be a victim of the past. I teach Client's how to break maladaptive cycles/patterns and move forward in healing choosing post-traumatic growth. I lead with compassion and create a safe, non-judgment space for all.

What you can expect from me

Clients can expect improvement in functioning and in quality of life areas, restoring emotional safety to their body and minds through a variety of evidence based approaches.
