About Me

Hello and welcome to my private practice, Grow Psychotherapy. Its hard to know where to begin when your mind is cluttered with self-deprecating thoughts or your body gets hijacked by all sorts of emotions and body sensations. Finding a therapist to meet you where you are in your therapeutic journey can be overwhelming still. Therapy can be truly transformative when you and your therapist are a good fit. If you are ready to tackle life-long issues that have plagued you, or held you back from healthy relationships, school, career and other areas of your life, book a free 20 minute consultation with me at www.growpsychotherapy.ca. Therapeutic goals are personal. You could be looking for symptom relief from depression or anxiety, or replacing old habits to make healthier choices. Maybe you are looking for a space to reflect and grow, or work through past traumas. With 10+ years of specializing in BIPOC, LGBTQ2S+ communities, I use approaches that foster positive changes and healing. Whether this is your first time, or you have been to therapy before, you are seeking help now, and that is a BIG step. You can count on me to support and encourage without judgement. I invite you to share your story with me. Together, we can work on your short or long-term therapeutic goals with honour and dignity. I work within the framework you provide me.
