Feeling alone in your relationship? Experiencing stress, anxiety or always overwhelmed with life’s demands? Know that you are not alone.

From the day I was born, no boxes have ever allowed me to fit in and no system fully supported my growth. From a young age, my nervous system was on guard, in survival mode. Many times I hit rock bottom and crawled back up. Even though I've relearned how to cope in healthier ways, it's still a struggle not to revert back to unhealthy coping. Understanding my worth — as a woman, a woman of color, and so many other defining pieces of who I am — continues to be my story. I am relearning and rewriting it every day.

If your goal is to start feeling like an active participant and being an expert in your own life and if you are seeking a safe space to be truly heard, your journey towards this goal can begin now with our therapeutic partnership.

I draw on inspiration from a variety of modalities, theories, and perspectives from Attachment-Based Theory, Emotional Focused Therapy (Couples), Systemic Theory, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Mindfulness Based techniques. I am committed to understanding you and your emotions, challenges, and successes from your perspective and how you experience these moments in your life. It is never an easy step to open up your life to a therapist but when you do make the decision, I will welcome you. It is a privilege to take this journey with you.

I spent much of my life fighting against all the "shoulds" and expectations of others. It seemed to me that everyone got the manual on how and who to be and I was the only one who didn't “get it.” I thought that no one would love me unless I fit into this box that everyone else seemingly fit into.

I came to realize that my thoughts and behaviors kept me little, small and unseen. That I cannot control others thoughts, actions, or their doubt or feeling towards me. I can, however, become aware of how these pieces impact me, how these old wounds may become raw again when pressed and how I can best help myself when I feel anxious, angry, scared, and human. Kavita and I created ReLearning Human to provide a space for you to explore your own human experience, whatever that looks like for you.

I provide confidential talk-therapy to adults and parents in a safe and comfortable environment where you will be supported to develop healthy perceptions of yourself, strengthen relationships, and uncover personal barriers to restore a sense of peace. I believe life is a continuous learning process where, with each passing day, we learn more about what we need in order to be the healthiest version of ourselves.

I combine a relational approach and methods of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Mindfulness Based Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help you address personal obstacles and regain a sense of clarity, acceptance, and direction.

Is anxiety, sadness, stress or grief making it hard for you to be present or experience joy or meaning in your life? Are you struggling to navigate your relationships or career, or suffering with the wounds of new or old trauma?

Maybe you feel the pressures of your responsibilities mounting. Are you dealing with a change in identity or role, such as becoming a parent? Or perhaps the challenges of living with suspected or diagnosed ADHD feels like too much. If any of these sound like you, let’s connect. What you are feeling and experiencing matters.

In our work together, we will build a foundation of trust, empathy and compassion around your unique concerns, goals and strengths. I provide a warm, caring, genuine space for us to start and grow from.

My work is based in anti-oppressive practice and attachment theory, while drawing from personal training and experience in healthcare and community practice settings. I utilize tools and skills from acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), narrative therapy, dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) and mindfulness-based practices. All of which are tailored to your own goals, needs and strengths. I consider it an honour and a privilege to accompany you on this path of growth and learning. While you are unique, you are not alone.
