Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
M.A.Counselling Candidate
The healing process begins with the ability to pause, observe what you are experiencing and make sense of it – this is a space of warmth, honesty and curiosity you might be longing for. From here we can build new paths that better serve the person you are today.
My approach to therapy blends advanced training in psychodynamic therapies with mindfulness-based approaches, grounded in decades of experience practising and teaching meditation and yoga. These are practices that bring depth to our lives, warmth to our relationships, and connect us to our own capacity for insight.
I am particularly passionate about working with relational traumas, the challenges of parenting and family relationships, with young adults and people looking to make sense of their difficult childhoods. I understand the complex realities of navigating cultural identities – my lived experience as an immigrant informs my ability to help people with diverse life experiences feel seen, understood, and supported.
Therapy with me is a collaborative process that unfolds at your own pace, in a space of care, honesty, and curiosity. Together we will explore not only your struggles but also your strengths, hopes, and what makes your life meaningful.

Registered Psychotherapist, Clinical Supervisor
website
In practice since 2008, I have worked with diverse communities to support healing, connection, and growth. I have a Master’s Degree in Counselling Psychology and further post-graduate training in the treatment of trauma and anti-oppressive practice. As an educator, I have taught university psychology courses, lead community workshops and clinical trainings in mindfulness-based approaches to healing, and mentored dozens of therapists and students as a clinical supervisor.
My work as a mindfulness-based psychotherapist is grounded in my own personal practice. A practitioner of meditation since 1999 and a mindfulness educator since 2004, I am a graduate of a Buddhist seminary and meditation instructor training program.
I believe that having diverse interests and being active in my community strengthens my work as a psychotherapist. A commitment to ongoing learning means that I continue to explore an interdisciplinary dialogue at the intersections of psychology, philosophy, art, science and social justice.

Master of Psychotherapy and Spiritual Care Candidate (Emmanuel College, University of Toronto)
Therapist Intern
I bring over 20 years of experience supporting individuals through trauma, transition, chronic pain, and spiritual inquiry. My practice weaves together mindfulness, somatic presence, and deep listening — grounded in respect for each person’s innate wisdom.
I’m especially drawn to supporting those navigating grief, identity transformation, abuse recovery, spiritual harm, and the complexities of living in bodies that hold pain — visible or invisible. This includes women and nonbinary folks, LGBTQ+ and racialized clients, and anyone seeking reconnection and resilience.
My training in contemplative movement, somatics, and Buddhist contemplative traditions allows me to support people beyond cognition — through the body, through presence, and through care.
I don’t aim to fix what’s broken, but to witness what’s unfolding. Healing is not linear — it emerges in spirals and waves. Beneath everything, I believe each person holds the goodness, strength and creativity they need – it is always an honour to walk alongside.

What is your version of a meaningful life?
My approach to therapy is grounded in the present moment. What unfolds in the here and now – in your body, emotions, and thoughts – is one of the most valuable sources of information we can bring attention to. Together, we will explore what arises through simple experiments, compassionate inquiry, and meaningful dialogue. I believe in the power of a good conversation, especially one that stretches to include more of who we are.
I am passionate about working with people who find themselves at a crossroads in life – whether through a change in circumstances such as the ending of a relationship, the loss of a loved one, a recent diagnosis, or a shift in identity. These moments can be deeply influential, and therapy can provide support as you look for new ways of relating to life and making sense of where you are now.
Outside the therapy room, I walk a contemplative path rooted in Buddhist meditation and reflection. I’m deeply interested in the intersection between spiritual insights and psychotherapy, and in how the wisdom of both traditions can help us meet life as it is.
