I have been practicing psychotherapy and multicultural counselling for 19 years focusing on individuals suffering from anxiety, depression, grief/bereavement and other emotional, psychological and physical ailments.
Groundwork is about freeing yourself from the limitations of your belief system, and relating to the world with authentic passion. It is not psychotherapy. It is a creative short term process that gives you tools and techniques to live more authentically in the world.
Life can be tough, especially if you are feeling stuck, alone, disconnected, burned out, or like something is missing. It takes a great deal of strength and commitment to work on your goals and your relationships, and you have taken an important step in making a change by looking for support. I believe that our lived experiences impact the way we interact with ourselves and others. In exploring these experiences, we can learn to grow, improve our relationships and communication, gain a deeper understanding of ourselves, and create meaningful change.
I offer online individual youth and adult psychotherapy. I am here to provide support and guidance for difficulties such as strain in relationships, anxiety, self-criticism, difficulty setting boundaries, lack of intimacy and connection, difficulties related to parenting or family dynamics, or if you would like to develop emotional insight and emotion regulation skills. I may also be a good fit if you would like to strengthen relationships, work to live your life more aligned with your values and goals, heal past relational pains, develop assertive communication skills, work effectively towards your goals, manage stress or burnout, explore how to increase self-compassion, or develop emotionally informed parenting skills.
I am committed to creating a supportive, collaborative, and compassionate environment in which you feel safe to explore the challenges you are facing. I value meeting you where you are at in your journey, and exploring steps towards meaningful change in your life. Everyone’s needs are different, please reach out to see if I would be a good fit for you!

Registered Psychotherapist, RP, Reiki Practitioner, BA
I am passionate about helping others and left a corporate environment to pursue a career in psychotherapy so that I could make more of a difference in this world. I understand that life has struggles however am here to help you cope better with the struggles so you can be your best self and live your happiest life. The idea of going to therapy and choosing a therapist may be overwhelming, I am here to walk you through it and offer a free consultation where you may ask me questions to see if I resonate. Sometimes, you have to talk to different therapists until you find the right one for you.
I believe that healing is growth in the face of adversity; it is a journey of coming (back) into yourself with deep self compassion, and we all have insight into how to get there. Sometimes we just need a bit of support along the way; someone to hold (non judgemental space) and work alongside us to find solutions, develop coping strategies and build on our innate skills and wisdom so that we are more emotionally resilient to life's challenges. I look forward to holding this space for you.
I believe that therapy and healing represent a profound spiritual journey towards a more connected and present human experience. My fascination lies in the intricate relationship between the body, mind, and spirit, and how our thoughts, feelings, and actions are often guided by subconscious non-cognitive intelligence. This holistic perspective inspires my commitment to exploring the depths of human experience and fostering a deeper understanding of ourselves.
Do you feel trapped in a cycle of worry, obsession, and avoidance? Are panic attacks, shyness, or insecurity holding you back?

I specialize in treating Anxiety and Panic in teenagers and adults utilizing evidence-based Cognitive-Behavioural (CBT) treatments to help you take back control of your life - no longer letting your fears control you.
You have probably started looking into therapy to help manage symptoms of anxiety. I help women who are struggling with the same obstacles you are facing.

Most of my clients are also struggling in their relationships. We will explore attachment styles and any other habits that might be negatively contributing to the already excruciating process of dating in 2023.

I am a white-passing, Middle-Eastern, bisexual, cis-gender, neurotypical woman and a first-generation immigrant and settler (who came to Canada as a refugee, during childhood).
I’ve also lived through experiences of trauma, displacement, mental illness, divorce, chronic illness and chronic pain.
So, I know what it’s like to feel lost, confused, doubtful, overwhelmed, frustrated, misunderstood, lonely, exhausted, and just not good enough! I know the effort and energy it takes to step into and embrace a journey of self-discovery, healing and growth, not knowing where it might lead. I also know how incredibly transformative it can be!
That must be why you're here too - ready and looking for something in your life to change for the better. I'm here to help!
