I graduated with my BA in Psychology from York University. I have been a practicing psychotherapist since 2022, after earning my Master’s degree in Counselling Psychology at Yorkville University. I’ve completed the San’yas Indigenous Cultural Safety training, with the Crisis & Trauma Resource Institute I completed trainings on anxiety, attachment, BPD, depression, mindfulness, grief, and harm reduction. Additionally, I also have five years of experience working with children on the autism spectrum and their families. Driven by a deep understanding of neurodiversity, I combine my expertise in behavioral therapy with a compassionate approach.
A Little Bit About Me:
When I am not walking alongside clients you will likely find trying out a new restaurant, in spin class, or cuddling with my dog.
I am passionate about working with individuals aged 16 and up who have experienced complex trauma.
I am deeply committed to helping individuals heal from trauma and reclaim their sense of safety, strength, and self-worth while guiding them through life’s challenges with compassion, understanding, and evidence-based techniques. I am also passionate about working with mood and anxiety disorders, emotional regulation, substance use, ADHD, and OCD.
Services include: individual therapy for teens and adults; approved NIHB provider.
Modalities:
I practice from a culturally competent, trauma-informed, and person-centered approach, incorporating modalities such as CBT, Exposure and Response Prevention Therapy, DBT, EFT, and EMDR. I offer a safe and supportive space to process past experiences, build resilience, and move forward with confidence. I understand that healing from trauma is not a one-size-fits-all journey, and I am committed to meeting you where you are, at your own pace.
Credentials:
I graduated from the University of Guelph with a BA in Psychology before taking a graduate certificate course in Victimology through Algonquin College. With 8 years of experience in the social work field, I have worked with women and children experiencing domestic violence, victims of crime, individuals experiencing homelessness, substance use, and those involved in the criminal justice system. I made the decision to pursue my Master’s in Counselling Psychology from Yorkville University and graduated in 2023 with honors.
A Little Bit About Me:
I am an animal lover, and my little family consists of a Samoyed named Suki and an orange cat named Simba (who are also best friends). In my spare time, I am a fitness and spin instructor and teach at a studio in my hometown. I am a natural homebody, true crime fan, and I enjoy reading a good book to recharge or spending quality time with my partner.
