About My Practice

I work with clients in Toronto, Ontario, Alberta, and British Columbia struggling with anxiety, depression, perfectionism, and feelings of shame and guilt. You may feel disconnected from yourself as you navigate school, work, friendships, family, and romantic relationships. If you're yearning for change but struggle with communicating your feelings or setting boundaries due to guilt or fears of being 'selfish,' I can help.

I specialize in culturally sensitive therapy to support clients in exploring their cultural identity and navigating the complexities of relationships with parents.

I help clients develop a healthier relationship with emotions, guiding them to see emotions as valuable information about their needs, wants, and boundaries, rather than a source of anxiety.

  • Are you covered by insurance?
    Insurance providers may cover psychotherapy fees either fully or partially, depending on the specifics of your extended health insurance plan. To determine your coverage, it’s helpful to ask your insurer the following questions: Does my plan include mental health benefits? How much is covered for psychotherapy services provided by a Registered Social Worker (RSW)? I provide receipts after each session, which you can submit to your insurance provider for reimbursement.
  • How do I get started?
    Getting started is simple. Reach out to schedule a free 20-minute consultation via phone or video call. This initial consultation gives us the opportunity to connect and allows you to share what brings you to therapy. It’s also a chance for me to answer any questions you have to ensure you feel comfortable and confident in finding the right therapist. Whether you're seeking support for anxiety, depression, perfectionism, or emotional well-being, this consultation can help us determine how best to move forward.
  • What kind of therapy do you offer?
    I provide individual psychotherapy for adults, drawing from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Psychodynamic Therapy, and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT). My therapeutic approach is grounded in the compassion and support of Person-Centered Therapy, encouraging clients to explore their thoughts and beliefs about themselves, others, and the world. By cultivating self-awareness, curiosity, and self-compassion, clients can begin to challenge unhelpful patterns that contribute to issues like anxiety, depression, perfectionism, and low self-esteem. Emotionally Focused Therapy plays a key role in my work as I support clients in understanding their emotions and how life experiences have shaped their relationship with feelings. We explore messages received during childhood about which emotions were deemed "acceptable" or "unwelcome." I help clients develop a healthier relationship with emotions, where feelings are viewed as valuable information about their needs, wants, and boundaries, rather than sources of distress or overwhelm.
  • What is virtual psychotherapy?
    Virtual psychotherapy is the process of delivering therapy sessions online through secure video conferencing. I use NousTalk, a PHIPA-compliant platform with encrypted connections to ensure privacy and confidentiality. This virtual approach allows clients to receive professional therapy from the comfort of their own homes, making it more convenient and accessible for individuals in Ontario, Alberta, and British Columbia. Whether you're managing anxiety, depression, perfectionism, or other challenges, virtual therapy offers a flexible and secure way to work towards mental wellness.
  • What is your availability?
    I am typically available for sessions from Tuesday to Friday, between 8:00 AM and 7:00 PM EST/EDT. My flexible schedule allows for daytime and early evening appointments to accommodate your needs.

Areas of Expertise

Cognitive Behaviour Therapy

CBT helps you cultivate curiosity and awareness about patterns in your thoughts and behaviors, allowing you to reflect on how these patterns affect your emotions and well-being. By examining the beliefs you hold about yourself, we work together to foster more empowering beliefs that recognize your strengths, worthiness, and imperfections. This process helps you appreciate yourself as the complex, multifaceted individual you are.

Emotionally Focused Therapy

EFT offers a compassionate approach to understanding and navigating your emotional landscape. Our sessions will focus on helping you connect with all parts of yourself, including those you may feel shame or discomfort around. Through this process, you’ll gain a deeper sense of self-connection and emotional balance.

Psychodynamic Therapy

We’ll explore how your upbringing and life experiences have shaped your sense of self, relationships, and worldview. My approach also emphasizes helping you connect with your core values and what matters most to you. Together, we’ll work towards building a fulfilling life and creating relationships that bring you satisfaction and joy.
