Registered Psychotherapist, HBEd, MA (Hons.), Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
They say our greatest weakness lies in giving up! We have all been there. I decided that if life was going to be difficult, I would become its greatest “warrior” and teach others to do the same. Too often we use our armour to hide our inner selves, rather than see it as our strength which only comes from taking a risk, facing our fears, taking a step forward, and learning that every battle is won with wisdom. I am here to empower you to take that chance on yourself — your mind is a powerful force, but you are its master.
Through various forms of therapy, one can explore different perspectives, coping skills, and motivators to establish better relationships; self-esteem and self-direction; deal with complicated family or couple dynamics; face a significant crisis or transition; manage substance use or addiction; and collaboratively make cognitive and behavioral changes to better emotional, mental, and even physical health!
I am a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) and trained art therapist in downtown Toronto, focusing on creating a safe, supportive environment through unconditional positive regard and authenticity. My practice integrates somatic modalities and neurobiological research, with specialized approaches for trauma, depression, chronic pain, anxiety, and climate distress, including eco-art therapy and EMDR using the S.A.F.E. model. My work is also informed by humanistic, relational, and existential approaches, emphasizing somatic grounding and mindfulness exercises that can be applied to daily life for stress management and overall well-being.
If you notice recurring patterns in your life that are difficult to shake, you aren't alone. I'm excited to be able to offer online psychotherapy to support people through life's ups and downs. I'm passionate about helping clients untangle their inner world and dive deep to explore the origins of their symptoms. My goal is to work towards lasting change for you, beyond a quick-fix approach. If you're ready to adventure alongside me, feel free to get in touch or book a free consult via my website.
I believe that each person has strength and resilience within them. Sometimes we only need a helping hand to get there. I have helped many individuals discover this strength, find healing, and move towards the life they want to live. As a person-centred therapist, I believe in empowering individuals to discover more about who they are in a collaborative approach to therapy. I work hard to build trust and create a safe, non-judgmental space for clients to come as they are, and together, take steps towards health and recovery.
I provide a nurturing, non-judgmental environment where clients can explore challenges, strengths, and emotions freely. Through a collaborative, person-centered and strength based approach, we work together towards lasting wellness and positive change, gaining valuable insights along the way.
If you are interested in working together and want to learn more about my approach to therapy, I would be happy to talk with you. Feel free to call or email me to book a free 15-minute phone consultation to see if we would be a good fit. I look forward to meeting you and working together soon.

Tailored treatment plans for individuals and couples facing sex addictions. I specialize in healing affairs, sexual trauma, porn addiction, love addiction, and sex crimes. My approach supports not only those facing these challenges but also their partners and families who may be feeling confused and hurt.
Therapy can be the stepping stone one needs to get over life hurdles. I meet clients where they are at and encourage each individual to get curious with their lives. Dig up the patterns and beliefs that are no longer working for them and decide what to do about it. I work with all people who present with many different issues . Let's set up a free consultation and go from there.
Our focus is to help individuals heal, energize, and become aware of their inner strengths. We achieve this by providing a neutral safe space, listening to your concerns, and customizing a treatment plan. We utilize best psychotherapy techniques to bring long lasting effects to an individual's life. We provide services to all of Ontario and are located in Mississauga.
I work from a Relational Psychodynamic and Integrative framework, making sure that we find a therapeutic framework that fits you and your unique needs.
When you see me you won't be seeing an overly clinical or 'removed' therapist, but rather a real person who meets you just as you are. I am warm, empathic, and non-judgmental - providing an environment that is safe so that you can explore all concerns and distress that have brought you to therapy.
I believe that anyone, regardless of class, sexuality, gender, race/ethinicity is valuable and deserves the best care I can give them. I would be honoured to work with you! Check out my website centredself.ca for more info.
I am taking new clients and have a great team of psychotherapists who are also here to help, including our new reduced cost therapy program. Message today for a free 20-min consultation for us to find a fit that suits you!
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.
I provide a compassionate, non-judgemental space for you to freely express yourself and explore your challenges. I take a collaborative, client-centred approach to therapy and I will work with you to develop a unique treatment plan that meets your individual needs. My goal as a therapist is to facilitate your healing and growth by helping you to rediscover your own innate strengths.
