About Me
For 15 years I have helped individuals and families overcome adversity, find emotional balance and look ahead, as they create a new and better path for themselves. My approach to therapy is grounded in humanistic and anti-oppressive orientations, which seek to empower, motivate and inspire you to achieve your goals. I recognize how oppression and other sources of emotional pain can contribute to symptoms of anxiety, depression, trauma and substance use issues. My practice offers a therapeutic experience that is highly collaborative and based on your individual needs/situation. I will listen to your story with great humility and compassion, while offering a safe place for you to explore what you feel needs to change in your life.
Education & Experience
Before becoming a social worker, I studied Fine Arts at the University of Toronto and Psychology/Art Therapy at Concordia University. I later pursued a Bachelor and Master’s degree in Social Work. I began my career in the community mental health sector, working primarily with youth and their families and then with adults. The restrictions imposed during the Covid-19 pandemic led me to pursue private practice and offer virtual therapy. I have since left the public sector to focus solely on private practice.
