Registered Psychotherapist, R.P., LL.M
Frustrated by "talk therapy"? Then, you might not just be looking for a therapist—you’re looking for someone who can help you shift. Let's make sense of what’s happening deeply beneath the surface. I bring a combination of clinical depth, relational attunement, and real-world expertise to my work. With advanced training in relational psychotherapy, somatic approaches, and parts work, I help clients move beyond insight and into meaningful, lasting change.
I specialize in working with high-functioning individuals who feel stuck in patterns around self-worth, relationships, and emotional regulation. My approach is both grounded and intuitive—I don’t just listen, I track what’s happening in your nervous system, your patterns, and your relationships in real time. This allows me to gently challenge what isn’t working while creating a space that feels safe, respectful, and deeply human.

Registered Psychotherapist, RP, CTP Dipl
We humans are all a little mysterious to ourselves — carrying patterns, reactions, and feelings we don't fully understand, and often facing them alone. Anxiety, low mood, and chronic stress aren't random, they're signals. A nervous system that learned, early on, to stay alert, brace for impact, or manage more than it should have. Even when the original circumstances are long gone, the alarm can keep sounding: in our bodies, our reactions, our relationships; making us say yes when we wish we said no, or people-pleasing when we are already depleted.
What might feel like a flaw often reveals itself as an adaptation to the environment we grew up in — necessary at the time, still faithfully following a rulebook that no longer fits, never having had the chance to stand down.
There is no fixed route. Rather, I offer companionship: an experienced presence willing to go into uncertain territory with you, without rushing or minimizing what you're carrying. I've made this kind of journey before, and I won't leave your side when it gets uncertain. Although there is no map, the process tends to follow a general shape: building steadiness first, noticing patterns as they surface, processing what's been exiled at a sustainable pace, and eventually finding your way back to shore.
Healing tends to require working with the body and nervous system directly, not just talking things through.
Those painful or shameful parts don't need fixing, they need understanding and accepting. Over time, the experience of being heard, believed and attuned-to grooves an embodied sense of safety. The nervous system can more easily move out of survival mode allowing shorter recovery after stress, more patience in hard conversations, or restful, restorative sleep.
What once felt monstrous often reveals itself as misunderstood: a part of you that was only ever trying to protect you, or tell you something true.
A space where all of you is welcome.
Before training as a psychotherapist, I spent 13 years practicing as a chiropractor, which shaped my deep respect for the mind-body connection in healing.
I offer a free introductory call (30–50 minutes) to test the waters and see whether this approach is right for you — even if you're not sure yet what that is.

Do you tend to replay past events in your mind over and over, and spiral into worries about the future? Do you struggle with boundaries, people-pleasing, or relationships, causing you to "overgive" to others while abandoning your own needs? Many people describe feeling like they’re moving through life on autopilot — weighed down by overthinking, low mood, or the pressure to keep everyone else happy. You might notice people-pleasing tendencies, difficulty maintaining boundaries, or a pattern of overgiving that leaves you drained, ungrounded, and disconnected from yourself. Here, you’ll find a warm, calm space where your feelings are validated and your voice genuinely matters. Together, we’ll engage in meaningful, deep processing work, explore what's fuelling your distress, and gently uncover the deeper experiences and patterns shaping your emotional world. Alongside this, we’ll build practical tools to regulate your nervous system and ease your symptoms in the present, helping you reconnect with a more empowered, resilient, and self-aware version of yourself. I bring the richness of three cultures, four languages, and the lived experience of being both a first- and third-generation immigrant. My background in the medical field also allows me to integrate physiological and psychological insight. These parts of who I am allow me to deeply empathize with the immigrant journey across generations, as well as the ways culture, family expectations, and identity can shape mental health. No matter your background or story, I aim to meet you with genuine understanding, respect, and compassion. I am a proud ally to LGBTQIA2S+ and BIPOC communities and offer inclusive, compassionate care for all backgrounds and lived experiences. If what I’ve shared resonates, we may be a good fit. If you're curious about working together, let's start with a free, no-pressure 30-min video consultation, where we can connect and chat in a calm, relaxed space.
