Modalities I apply in my practice consist of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Solution Focused Brief Therapy (SFT), and Attachment-Based Therapy. I also utilize Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR),  Mindfulness-Based Therapy, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Somatic Experiencing Therapy (SE) and Play Therapy. I draw upon a combination of theoretical orientations to provide an integrative practice that caters to everyone’s unique needs and goals for therapy.

I aspire to continue providing therapeutic services to children, youth, and adults with various mental health and wellness needs. I strive to implement a strength-based and a Person-Centered approach to establish a strong therapeutic relationship with each individual I work with. My goal is for us to work collaboratively and to work towards meaningful change. I aim to hold a safe and non-judgmental space for my clients especially in times of vulnerability. In my role as a therapist, I am humbled and honored as I walk alongside people in their journey to personal recovery.

In addition to counseling, I am also a university instructor for undergraduate psychology courses. I lecture in several subjects including introductory psychology, atypical development, and developmental psychology. Aside from being an avid learner, I also enjoy being an educator and having the opportunity to share my knowledge and practical experiences in the field.

Outside of work and ongoing professional development, I can be found indulging in savoury dishes and sweet treats from local restaurants. Pre-covid, my husband and I were avid travelers and foodies and we hope to share this experience with our little ones as they grow older. Other things I enjoy doing are hot yoga, baking, playing volleyball, and snowboarding.
