Why Therapy & Why Me
Psychotherapy is a meant to be your time to explore, to be heard and to heal. That’s why in my practice it’s not just about the talking, it’s about much more; the body, the soul and the environment that impacts us.
Have you ever felt alone or isolated? Maybe you’ve felt as though no one understands you? I hear you. you have tried to heal from your past relationships, childhood traumas or bullying and it feels as though you are carrying it alone. You don’t have to. Therapy can be a place to slow down, reconnect withyourself and begin to understand what your mind and body have been trying to tell you.
About Me
I am a registered Psychotherapist in Ontario, Canada, and I received my MSc in Psychotherapy at McMaster University. I have been practicing Psychotherapy for more than 3 years and have been working in the mental health/psychiatric field since 2012.
As a psychotherapist, I value a holistic, mind-body approach to healing. This is why my practice goes beyond traditional talk therapy. I alsodraw from somatic ad play-based approaches that invite us to pay attention to the body, our sensations, emotions, and felt experiences.
My life, work and training experiences have led me to find my passion for helping others heal from the challenges of domestic violence, abuse, family conflict, and bullying.
I believe that healing is not about changing who you are, but about creating space to understand yourself with greater compassion. Togethe, we can explore what happened to you, how it continues to affect you, and what the healing process can look like for you moving forward.
