I truly believe that each and every one of us holds the strength to transform ourselves and our lives in a meaningful way - sometimes, we just need a little support to get there. Specializing in anxiety, eating disorders, body image, depression, self-esteem, and grief/ loss, my approach is client centred - recognizing that through the challenges, experiences, and traits that make us who we are, we deserve therapy that is unique to us.
I hold the belief that each individual is unique, with their own methods of handling life's challenges. I will always provide a safe and non-judgmental environment where we can jointly address the issues you are facing. You are not alone in managing your emotions.

*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.
*IN-PERSON AVAILABILITY* I believe my lived experience with racism, parenting, grief and the challenges of adolescence infuse emphatic understanding into my practice. Life is hard!! I have also faced many of the challenges facing our children, teens and families today, and I bring my experiences into my clinical practice. The foundation of my work is steeped in hope; as I believe that hope is essential to effect positive outcomes and change.

It would be an honour to support you through all of life's challenges with the attention and care you deserve. I provide non-judgmental listening while offering a safe space to share and reflect. Whether you are facing difficult life transitions, struggling with anxiety, or simply seeking greater clarity and fulfillment, I am here to support you in navigating the journey.
At Lumos Counselling, we believe that the counselling process is a collaborative approach where the patient determines where they are going and the therapist provides the directions. Our philosophy to counselling is to empower patients so that they are able to work through stressors with tools and strategies learned during sessions.
I am here to guide you through any obstacles you may currently be facing. My goal is to help you understand yourself more deeply, to better cope with change...and quite possibly, to help you find the solution that bridges the gap between where you find yourself right now and where you wish to be.
Counsellor/Therapist, OT Reg. (Ont.), Psychotherapist
We all have the capacity to manage what comes our way, but sometimes it can feel like too much to carry on our own. Have you experienced a trauma that continues to bother you, impacts your relationships, career, or the ability to do the things you love? Do you feel anxious, depressed, stressed or overwhelmed most days? I want to help you feel more in control of your emotions so you are better able to navigate your day-to-day. Whether that means unravelling experiences of the past to make better sense of them or focusing on the here and now, we can do it together. Your emotions don't have to rob you of living a meaningful life.
I see therapy as a safe space, free of judgement, where you can express yourself and begin to explore opportunities to cultivate a compassionate relationship with yourself and those around you. My goal as a therapist is to be your companion to help facilitate your internal search and exploration. Together, we will strive to help you make meaningful connections, unveil new understandings and elicit a sense of hope and trust in yourself. I work with individuals, couples, children, and families and offer a free consultation to see if I am the right therapist to support you through this journey.
