Your Journey Toward Well-being Starts Here!

I am a Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC), EMDR Therapist, and Professional Certified Coach (PCC, ICF) with a Ph.D. in Psychology and over 15 years of clinical experience. I support diverse clients in navigating stress, anxiety, trauma and PTSD, depression, relationship challenges, life transitions, immigration, and workplace issues.

My approach is systemic and integrative. I partner with clients to identify meaningful goals and co-create a personalized treatment plan that draws from gold-standard modalities and evidence-based therapies. These include EMDR, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Bowen Family Systems Therapy, Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy (CBT), as well as strength-based and solution-focused coaching. My services support individuals, couples, and families in exploring core values, thought patterns, emotions, somatic experiences, unique strengths, internal barriers, and external pressures. Together, we uncover what truly matters, cultivate deep self-awareness, strengthen relationships, and foster sustainable, long-term change.

Areas of Focus:

• Trauma and PTSD
• Life and Career Transitions
• Anxiety, Stress, and Depression
• Immigration, Identity, and Belonging
• Identity, Purpose and Meaning
• Workplace Issues and Burnout
• Relationship and Family Challenges

At the heart of my practice is EMDR Therapy (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) - an evidence-based psychotherapy that helps people heal from distressing life experiences, including trauma, anxiety, stress, and other emotional challenges. It is especially effective in treating trauma and PTSD, and it also supports the development of emotional resources such as confidence and self-esteem. Whether you’re processing recent events, past trauma, or long-standing emotional wounds, EMDR can be a powerful step toward relief and resilience.

With extensive experience in solution-focused coaching and career development, I have supported local leaders and working immigrants in building resilience, managing stress, and fostering authentic leadership. Together, we will navigate life’s complexities and go through challenges and uncertainties with care. In my practice, I emphasize whole-person, mind–body integration, helping clients navigate their healing journeys, foster growth, and cultivate deeper connections with themselves and others.

In addition to individual counseling, I offer couple and family therapy. Come together with your partner or loved ones to improve communication, resolve conflicts, and deepen emotional connections. I support couples and families in exploring relational dynamics, addressing underlying issues, and fostering healthier ways of relating. In a safe, confidential space, you’ll build stronger, more fulfilling relationships rooted in trust, awareness, and mutual understanding.

My trauma-informed approach is carefully attuned to each client’s unique needs, fostering emotional resilience and well-being.
