Description

I am a registered psychotherapist providing evidence-based treatment for teens, adults, and elders experiencing hardship. I have extensive experience in helping individuals work through anxiety, depression, OCD, self-harm, trauma, addiction, self-esteem and body-image issues, and sex and relationship concerns. I strive to create a safe and non-judgmental atmosphere for my clients to share their experiences. I am passionate about helping individuals from marginalized communities, including the LGBTQ+ community, sex workers, immigrants, people with disabilities and people of colour.
