Before becoming a therapist, I spent 15 years teaching and I’m also a mother of three children. These experiences deeply shaped my interest in growth, resilience, and emotional well-being. Struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and the challenges of pregnancy and postpartum can take a toll, making everyday life feel heavier than it should. I bring a calm, warm, and curious presence to this work, with an understanding of how layered and complex these experiences can be.
 
I am a life long learner and value research. I have always felt a commitment to pursuing additional training and courses in order to provide a therapeutic approach that is informed by evidence-based research. 
 
In my practice, I use components of relational therapy, psychodynamic therapy, cognitive behavioural therapy and solution-focused therapy to provide a therapeutic experience tailored to each individual. I am trauma-informed and am trained in the Flash Technique which allows clients to process disturbing memories without reliving the event.

I receive clinical supervision in order to provide a high standard of practice. I completed my training at the Toronto Centre for Psychotherapy and Counselling Education. I am a member of the Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Association (CCPA). I completed my Bachelor of Science in Psychology at Queen's University and have a Master of Arts in Child Study and Education from OISE (Ontario Institute for Studies in Education, University of Toronto).
