I completed my Master’s Degree in Counselling Psychology from Yorkville University and hold a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from Macewan University. It has always been my greatest passion to help others achieve their wellness goals. I believe that all successful counselling occurs within a safe, trusting, and authentic relationship, which I strive to genuinely cultivate with each encounter. I aim to hold space for my clients so that they can experience their feelings in a safe, non-judgmental environment, allowing for emotional expression, self-connection, and fostering self-compassion and acceptance.

​

To flexibly meet the needs of my clients, I use an integrative approach that draws from several effective, evidence-based therapeutic modalities, including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT), and Motivational Interviewing.

​

I am a compassionate and growth-oriented counsellor dedicated to helping others on their personal life journeys. Having studied and worked in the mental health field for most of my adult life, I have a broad range of experience counselling adults from all walks of life. I am passionate about helping my clients with mental health issues such as anxiety, depression, addiction, PTSD and trauma, work-related issues, gender identity, sexual concerns, stress, body image, sleep issues, grief and loss, as well as life transitions.
