I use a compassionate and nonjudgemental approach to help you bring about meanful change. My warmth, supportive and collaborative style is the foundation of my practice. I want you to feel valued, understood and empowered as I help you navigate your life challenges.
I have a special interest in relationship issues, stress, anxiety, fatigue, burnout, major life transitions, perimenopause/menopause, trauma and cross-cultural and newcomer’s adjustments
I received a Masters of Arts in Counselling Psychology at Yorkville University. I also received a Doctorate of Naturopathic Medicine, Certificate of Counseling Honours and a Professional Biofeedback Training Certificate from Bastyr University. I obtained a Bachelors of Arts with distinction in psychology from McGill University. I continue to train and educate myself on evidence-based therapies to ensure I am providing the best care for my clients.
Outside of my practice, you can find me running around with my three beautiful children. I also enjoy laughing with friends and my family. I have a passion for reading, cooking, music and travel. I love to explore new cultures and new places and also love all aspects of the arts from art galleries, performance arts to literature.
