Feeling overwhelmed by intrusive thoughts? Does it feel like you have no control? Are you frustrated spending time and energy on compulsions and acting out unhelpful impulses and urges? Our brains can be really tricky and frustrating. I am here to help you gain back control of your life so that you can move forward in the direction that you want to.  I will help you recognize your resilience, create meaningful change for your mental health, and support you through tricky brain challenges.

Life can be tough but so are you. In my practice, I value cultural humility and aim to provide a safe and non-judgmental space for you to explore your thoughts and emotions. As a Registered Psychotherapist and Certified Canadian Counsellor, I work with individuals experiencing anxiety, anger, depression, stress, OCD, ADHD, and trauma. Additionally, holding a Masters degree in Sport and Exercise Psychology, I also help individuals looking for sport performance and psychology support. My approach to therapy is person-centred and collaborative, integrating different techniques from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, as well as Acceptance and Commitment therapy. I am passionate about empowering others and helping individuals find strength and flexibility. I hope to be able to support you through life’s challenges. It is possible to live a life where obsessions are not as overwhelming, impulses feel better managed, and life is moving in a workable and enjoyable direction. Let me help you get there!
