My Practice
My Practice
Welcome to a space of healing, growth, and connection.
Your well-being matters. Sessions are available in English, Spanish, and Portuguese for residents of Ontario and Nova Scotia.
I work primarily with adults, including newcomers and individuals from diverse cultural backgrounds, who are looking to process emotional wounds, break free from limiting patterns, and build a stronger sense of self.
Whether you're navigating a temporary challenge or exploring longer-term healing, I offer counselling and therapy to support you at every stage.
Counselling can provide a focused space for clarity and relief during times of stress or transition, while therapy allows for deeper exploration of longstanding issues, patterns, and emotional experiences.
Many of the concerns I help clients navigate include:
- Trauma (including childhood trauma)
- Anxiety, stress, and emotional overwhelm
- Depression and feelings of emptiness
- Self-esteem and identity struggles
- Grief and life transitions
- Immigration and cultural adaptation
- Relationship and attachment issues
- Workplace stress and burnout
My practice is grounded in the belief that we all carry inner wisdom, and that therapy can be a space to reconnect with it. Whether you are facing a current life challenge or carrying the weight of past experiences, I will walk alongside you with empathy, respect, and curiosity.
We begin by building a trusting therapeutic relationship, which is the foundation of our work together. In our early sessions, we’ll explore what brings you to therapy and clarify your goals. From there, we co-create a personalized treatment plan that supports your unique needs and growth.
I draw from evidence-based therapeutic modalities, including:
- Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
- Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT)
- Attachment-Based Therapy
- Mindfulness and Self-Compassion practices
- Narrative Therapy
My aim is to create a safe, non-judgmental space where you feel heard, supported, and empowered to make meaningful changes.
Therapy isn’t always easy, but it can be deeply rewarding — and you don’t have to do it alone.
Areas of Practice
Areas of Practice
Trauma & PTSD
Unresolved trauma can have a lasting impact on your emotions, relationships, and overall wellbeing. Whether from childhood or more recent experiences, trauma often shows up in the form of anxiety, emotional numbness, flashbacks, or difficulty trusting others. I use trauma-informed, evidence-based approaches to gently explore and process painful memories at your pace. Together, we’ll work to build tools that help you feel safe again, restore self-trust, and reconnect with life in meaningful ways.
Anxiety
Do you often feel overwhelmed, on edge, or stuck in cycles of worry? Anxiety can affect your ability to sleep, concentrate, and feel present. In our sessions, I help you understand the roots of your anxiety, identify your triggers, and develop coping strategies that truly work for you. You’ll learn to calm your nervous system, challenge unhelpful thought patterns, and find more peace in your daily life.
Depression
Depression can make it hard to get through the day or feel connected to yourself and others. You may feel numb, hopeless, or like you're going through the motions. In therapy, I offer a safe and compassionate space to explore what’s weighing you down. We’ll work together to understand the underlying causes, build emotional resilience, and help you rediscover energy, purpose, and hope.
Self-Esteem & Identity Issues
Do you struggle with feelings of not being enough? Low self-esteem can affect your relationships, career, and how you see yourself. I’ll help you explore where those beliefs come from and support you in building a more positive, compassionate inner voice. Together, we’ll work toward a stronger, more confident sense of self, grounded in your values and strengths.
Grief & Loss
Loss can take many forms—the death of a loved one, the end of a relationship, or the loss of a life path you had envisioned. Grief can feel overwhelming and unpredictable. I provide a gentle, supportive space where you can make sense of your emotions, honour your loss, and find ways to move forward while still holding onto what matters most.
Workplace Stress & Burnout
Are you feeling drained, overwhelmed, or stuck in a cycle of overworking and exhaustion? Workplace stress can take a serious toll on your emotional and physical health. In therapy, we’ll explore what’s contributing to the stress, create healthy boundaries, and develop tools to help you feel more balanced and empowered at work.
Immigration & Cultural Adjustment
Moving to a new country brings both opportunities and challenges. Navigating a new culture while trying to stay connected to your roots can be disorienting and emotional. Having experienced this process myself, I offer a space where you can talk freely about identity, belonging, and the emotional complexities of immigration. You are not alone in this journey.
Relationship & Attachment Concerns
Relationships can be fulfilling, but they can also bring up deep emotional pain, especially when unhealthy patterns repeat themselves. Whether you're navigating difficulties in romantic relationships, family dynamics, or friendships, I can help you understand your attachment style and how past experiences may be shaping your current interactions. We'll work on building stronger communication, trust, and connection in your relationships.
