Hello, thank you for visiting my profile. Dismantling stigma around mental health and promoting a culture of help seeking is very important to me. I work with relationship issues, work-related stress, loss, trauma, addiction, and anxiety. I have helped men, women and individuals of different ages, professions, diverse backgrounds and cultural groups with a wide range of difficulties and themes.
Our work together will help you feel more empowered, hopeful and in control when tackling life’s challenges and embracing change.
I recognize that seeking support or taking the step to speak to someone can be an intimidating process. I want to assure you that I will meet you where you are at; in a safe, kind, genuine, and non-judgmental space.

I believe every individual has a unique experience that requires therapy that is tailored to them. In the safety net of psychotherapy, you will explore your life experiences, gain new perspectives, reframe experiences positively, and learn new adaptive skills. If you have anxiety, depression, learning disabilities, ADHD, Autism, twice-exceptional, or are an immigrant or a caregiver, I will work with you to help gain skills that will make it easier to manage and improve your mental health, maximize your potential at work, advocate for yourself, and improve your relationships. You are brave to take part in a journey that can be overwhelming and frightening and I look forward to accompanying you on this path to self-growth.
