Why you should seek therapy.

In life we may be faced with challenges that we did not choose. But we can choose how we deal with those challenges when they come.  

Over the years, I have helped clients work through difficult emotions, cope with stressful situations, process traumatic experiences, sleeping difficulties, manage obsessive/compulsive tendencies, navigate major life transitions, work through dissatisfaction and discord in relationships, overcome lack of motivation in life, overcome feelings of anxiety, depression, and to gain a sense of identity and stability in life.

As a therapist, I strive to create a supportive, non-judgmental space for my clients to make them feel understood and to work collaboratively in choosing the best path towards achieving their personal goals.

I use a culturally sensitive and compassionate approach to therapy where I enable clients to gain a fresh, more helpful perspective on their issues, realize their inner strengths and empower them with the necessary skills to effectively overcome difficult times and create a fulfilling, rewarding life for themselves.

My Client Focus are Adolescents, Adults, Couples and Families. I tailor my interventions based on the individual needs of my clients by integrating approaches from different therapeutic modalities such as CBT (Cognitive Behaviour Therapy), ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy), EFT (Emotion Focused Therapy), SFT (Solution- Focused Therapy) etc.
