WHO I WORK WITH
You don't have to keep doing it alone.
Many of my clients are thoughtful, capable, and accustomed to handling things independently. They appear composed in their work, relationships, and daily lives, yet often find themselves repeating patterns they believed they had already outgrown or feeling disconnected from themselves.
They're looking to show up for themselves with the same care they offer others, so they can feel less burdened by anxiety and self-doubt, reconnect with themselves, and live the life they want more fully.

ABOUT ME
With awareness comes change.
For more than 12 years, I’ve worked across hospitals, specialized mental health programs, and private practice. These experiences have shaped my understanding of how people can appear capable and composed while quietly carrying more than others realize.
I am a Registered Social Worker in Ontario providing virtual psychotherapy to adults throughout the province. I work with thoughtful adults navigating high-functioning anxiety, perfectionism, burnout, depression, relationship challenges, life transitions, ADHD, and body-focused repetitive behaviours.
My approach is genuine, collaborative, and individualized. I believe therapy should feel less like following a script and more like an honest conversation with someone deeply invested in understanding your experience. Together, we’ll work to develop greater insight, strengthen your relationship with yourself, and create meaningful, lasting change.
MY APPROACH
A supportive space for reflection.
My therapeutic approach is grounded in a broad and flexible training base, including cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), dialectical behaviour therapy (DBT), mindfulness-based approaches, and psychodynamic therapy. Rather than working from a fixed framework, I tailor therapy to your unique needs, integrating evidence-based strategies with a deeper understanding of the patterns, relationships, and experiences that shape your life.
My style is genuine, collaborative, and conversational. Together, we'll create a safe, supportive space where you can explore challenges, build on your strengths, and develop practical tools while gaining greater insight into yourself.

A free 15-minute consultation costs nothing and commits you to nothing.
