My Approach

I work with individuals and couples of all genders, sexualities, and cultures.  My approach is client-centered and is implemented within a feminist, anti-oppressive, trauma-informed framework. My work is inherently intersectional and LGBTQ+ affirmative.  

 

I implement techniques from emotion focused therapy, narrative therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, and attachment based therapy.

 

In my practice I show up as my authentic self with humour and I hope to get to know your true self too.  I acknowledge the privilege of being invited into my client’s inner world and take great responsibility in holding that space.  A strong therapeutic relationship helps foster self-disclosure and self-exploration.  

 

I strive to create a space where you can feel at ease to open up, to be seen and heard, and be met with warmth and curiosity.

​

My specialties include:

  • Anxiety 

  • Life Transitions

  • Relationships

  • Self-Esteem

​

I offer virtual sessions (Ontario-wide) and in-person sessions in Toronto.  I have two office locations, one in Leslieville and the other on Dundas West.

I acknowledge and honour that Toronto is covered by Treaty 13, signed by the Mississaugas of the Credit. I recognize that I am a settler on this land that is the traditional territory of many nations including the Mississaugas of the Credit, Anishnabeg, the Chippewa, the Haudenosaunee, and the Wendat peoples and is now home to many diverse First Nations, Inuit, and Métis.
