Do you find yourself putting others’ needs ahead of your own, overthinking decisions, or striving for perfection in school or work? Are stress, self-doubt, or past experiences impacting your relationships or sense of self? You’re not alone—I am here to support you!

As a compassionate and dedicated Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), I create a safe, empathetic space so that you feel seen, heard, and empowered. Using a gentle and supportive approach, we will navigate the emotional challenges that come with anxiety, academic pressure, self-worth, and life transitions.

I support adults, adolescents and couples in areas such as emotional regulation, perfectionism, identity development, and relationship stress. Your challenges do not define you—and together, we can explore your strengths, overcome barriers, and move toward personal growth.

Passionate about helping couples reconnect, I also work with partners to strengthen emotional bonds, explore deeper feelings, and shift away from patterns that cause disconnection. My goal is to help you foster deeper understanding, empathy, and lasting intimacy in your relationship. I draw on various evidence-based modalities such as emotion-focused couples therapy.

Wherever you are in your journey, I would love to support your growth and healing. I look forward to walking alongside you on your journey to becoming more you!
