I specialize in helping people with Perfectionism & Borderline Personality Disorder. Although I accept clients who are looking for short-term therapy to build skills for coping with anxiety and stress, most of the work I do with clients involves a 'deep-dive' into longstanding issues that stem from childhood or adolescence. If that description seems to match your current situation, then we may be a good fit.
I focus on approaching your therapy with openness. I want to facilitate you in discovering how you have come to be the person that you are, developing acceptance, and finding ways forward that will lead you to feeling at home in yourself. I believe that we are responsible for our own experience of life, but that we have more freedom than it often feels. If you feel we might be a good fit, I welcome you to reach out for a consultation.
As a biracial, non-binary person of colour and fourth generation Canadian I hold that identity is complex and I want to make space for you to be seen for your true, authentic self.
The issues I treat are all experiences I have intimate familiarity with through my own life or the lives of family, friends and loved ones which allows me to operate from a position of deep, inner resonance. As a wounded healer, I consider it an honour and a privilege to accompany you on your own healing journey.
Psychodynamic psychotherapy is a clinically proven method for addressing a range of mental health concerns. For the past 3 years I have worked with clients presenting with a variety of personality disorders, life challenges/transitions, as well as relationship dynamics. Through a reparative therapeutic alliance we can work to understand the challenges you may be facing in your life. By exploring your past , we can connect what patterns and beliefs that may be hindering you today in order to improve your relationships with others and yourself. I am also under the supervision of a Feminist Supervisor and am expanding my modalities to include feminist therapy which really works to help understand the oppressive structures of patriarchy on both men and women and how they play out in our lives but with a particular focus on women's social justice and women's issues.
*ACCEPTING NEW CLIENT'S* I am so glad you are here and putting forth your needs first or maybe you are here because your friend or family member needs support or you are just tired of feeling this ‘Numb’ feeling and you want some answers as to “Why are you feeling this way? or asking yourself “Why don’t I feel happy or sad anymore?”, “Why am I like this?”, What is wrong with me? If I have made you question yourself right now then you are in the right place with the right person. As your therapist, I will help you explore all these feelings.
