My Approach to Helping
Life throws us into situations that we are expected to know how to navigate, but we don’t typically get taught how to cope with the spectrum of life’s happenings. Insecurities, uncertainty, and doubt can lead us to avoid discomfort and difficult situations. Avoidance often leads us to shy away from opportunities for profound self-growth. I hope to be someone in your corner that helps you to grow comfortable to explore the vulnerable parts of your internal and external world, to make sense of it.
As a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), I am genuinely curious about your lived experiences, your relationships, your upbringing, and how it all impacts your current circumstances. I will work hard to develop a relationship based in compassion where you feel comfortable and safe to share intimate details. I believe the best work can be done through a relationship built on trust and balance. By encouraging and facilitating self-exploration, self-awareness, and insight we can uncover the tools for you to live feeling fulfilled and gratified.
I have 10 years of education and experience in the psychology field. I hold a Master’s degree in Counselling Psychology from Yorkville University. I also have a BA Honours in Psychology from Western University where I devoted my studies to social psychology with a particular focus on attitude formation and change.
