*Accepting New Clients* My approach is grounded in authenticity, trust, and often humour. I believe you have the wisdom to navigate life’s challenges and I strive to help empower you to facilitate change in therapy. I work with individuals, couples, children and families offering a free consultation to ensure we are a good fit. I carry a systemic lens, exploring the way culture, community and family shape our experiences and aspirations. I am committed to strength-based and anti-oppressive practice in my work. I recognize the importance and responsibility I have as a therapist, to address the systemic inequalities impacting clients in their lives.

Treatment Approach
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) One of the most widely used approaches, CBT helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and replace them with healthier patterns. It is effective for anxiety, depression, and many other concerns.
- Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) Focuses on strengthening emotional bonds in couples or families. It helps people identify negative cycles and create more secure connections.
- Narrative Therapy Encourages people to view problems as separate from themselves and reframe their life story. It helps build resilience and self-identity.
- Relational Psychotherapy Emphasizes the healing power of the therapist-client relationship. It uses trust and safety as a foundation for change.
- Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) Focuses on solutions and future goals rather than past problems. It is practical, short-term, and goal-driven.
Approach Description: I believe in empowerment through connection and work alongside clients experiencing a range of concerns which can be found to the right of my profile (specialities). I have additional post-graduate training in cognitive processing therapy and emotion focused family therapy to compliment my Master’s in Couple and Family Therapy from Guelph University.
I am a founder at Psychotherapy Collective, an online therapy clinic facilitating client access to licensed therapists. Visit our website, call me, or email me to schedule a free consultation to see if we are a good fit. Our website features a collective of therapists ready to help you through your journey.
I look forward to connecting with you soon.
