My Approach to Helping

I am a Registered Psychotherapist with experience supporting individuals with issues related to anxiety, depression, relationships, trauma, perfectionism, life transitions as well as postpartum depression and anxiety.

I integrate parts of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Attachment-based therapy and Compassion-focused therapy dependant on client needs. My work often involves exploring early attachment relationships and working through potential unmet needs or ruptures in attachment. I also utilize more "hands on" tools to help clients manage symptoms of depression and anxiety. I have specialized training in supporting those in postpartum (from conception to 2 years after birth). My aim is for clients to build more personal insight and understanding of themselves while also learning how to deal with difficult thoughts and feelings.

With this in mind, I work from a client-centred approach such that the client leads each session, while I provide reflection, feedback, and space for processing and safe exploration.

More Info About My Practice

My educational career involves a Bachelor of Science degree from Wilfrid Laurier University in Psychology and Biology, a Behavioural Science program from George Brown College, as well as a Master's degree in Counselling Psychology from Yorkville University. I am currently a member in good standing with the Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Association and with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario. I am also in the process of completing my certification with the Canadian Certified Perinatal Mental Health Certificate Program.
