Life is filled with many ups and downs, and at times, we all face challenges that can feel overwhelming. Seeking for help and being vulnerable can be a daunting experience so I would love to create a respectful and non-judgemental space for you to develop personal growth and to work on past/current issues.

I use a holistic approach that focuses on attachment and strength-based theories, drawing from therapeutic modalities such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT), Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT), Internal family system, Solution Focus, Attachment Focused, and Collaborative Problem Solving (CPS), to provide support and guidance to clients in their daily life challenges. With my experience in education, I specialize with school behaviours, neurodivergence, ADHD, and emotion regulation. I work collaboratively with clients to develop a treatment plan that aligns with their personal goals and values, fostering growth, healing, and resilience. I am here to support you in your journey towards self-discovery and positive change.

There are times in our life when we may feel stuck or have periods of suffering that leave us feeling powerless, hopeless, and alone. Taking that first step in reaching out for help can be difficult, as it may create many unknowns. When it comes to therapy, there is no one-size-fits-all approach. I adhere to a person-centred approach to ensure that each client’s unique goals and needs are met. In doing so, I work with clients to process their difficult emotions, uncover unhelpful patterns, and help them to rebuild their ability to cope. I strive to create a safe space for clients to be able to express their authentic self, and work collaboratively to help them heal and grow.

Many individuals, from children to adults, struggle to understand their own worth and navigate personal challenges, often feeling disconnected from others, themselves, their values, and their life goals. I work with my clients to identify their strengths and resources, enabling them to achieve a deeper understanding of themselves and their hopes and values.

By encouraging clients to re-author their personal stories, I empower them to envision and work towards their preferred future. This holistic and individualized therapeutic experience emphasizes recognizing clients’ strengths, fostering progress rather than dwelling on problems that are out of their control.

Through this approach, my clients can develop resiliency, greater self-awareness and learn practical coping skills, which help them foster growth & healing.
