M.A. Counselling Psychologist Candidate

I believe that there is nothing one can endure or do that places you beyond human dignity, or being met with love and care.

Therapy with me is a collaborative and compassionate space that we create together. We take a pause from the busyness of everyday life to slow down and gently explore what is alive for you in the present moment. You will feel supported as we become curious about your experiences and let go of judgment, which makes space for the complexity, multiple truths, and contradictions that can coexist within you – especially those creating enormous tension between your inner and outer life.

My own identity and lived experiences have developed my ability to honour people’s unique cultural contexts and histories. I am especially drawn to those who feel unsettled, stuck, or find themselves struggling in their relationships with others or with aspects of themselves.

I see healing as an ongoing process of gradually expanding our capacity to meet life’s challenges with greater understanding, flexibility, and self-compassion. We’ll work toward meaningful, lasting changes that continue to support you long after our time together.

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.

I have a passion for working with individuals struggling to find their way to a more peaceful and centred life – be it due to turbulent relationships, depression, anxiety or anything else life throws our way.

My practice centres on an understanding that people are more than their problems, with the ability to create space for possibility and change. I also have a specific interest in supporting Black and Afro-Caribbean people as I know first-hand the comfort derived from accessing a therapist with lived experience of anti-black racism.

Therapy with me works from a belief that people are the experts in their own lives. I seek to guide clients to realize their capacity, and develop the tools they have to lead healthful and fulfilling lives. My work is collaborative, trauma-informed and anti-oppressive.

The thing I love most about connecting with clients is showing that I’m a real person too. I show up as my authentic self in each session. I look forward to meeting you and embarking on a healing journey together!

I view therapy as a creative process. A creative process requires connection, trust, and a sense of humour. I bring over a decade of experience in the arts to my work as a psychotherapist, and have spent my life building supportive spaces where we try things, fail productively, and sometimes reach breakthroughs collaboratively. Together we will investigate the nuances of your story and explore alternate ways of being with your thoughts, feelings, mind and body.

I’m queer, and work with individuals and couples from a relational, attachment-focused, and trauma-informed perspective. I have concentrated experience working with queer people, attachment issues, chronic shame, and trauma processing. I bring evidence-based somatic mindfulness and self-compassion techniques to my work with people navigating issues with relationships, intimacy and sex, life transitions, self-esteem, anxiety, and depression.

Attachment therapy explores how we’ve learned to connect with others early in life and how that’s echoed in our connection with ourselves and our partners. My responsibility is to attend to our relationship with curiosity and openness. I will encourage you to turn to yourself with the same care, so that your connection with yourself begins to feel like home.

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.

My practice weaves together mindfulness, somatic presence, and deep listening — grounded in respect for each person’s innate wisdom. I bring over 20 years of experience supporting individuals through trauma, transition, chronic pain, and spiritual inquiry.

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.

I believe that therapy is a mutually creative process where we can slow down, awaken our curiosity, and discover new ways of moving through life’s challenges. Therapy with me is inquisitive, collaborative and creative. As a multi-disciplinary artist, I bring an experiential approach to my work, especially for people who have found traditional talk therapy limiting or who struggle to put their experiences into words.

Creative practice has taught me the value of exploring different approaches and broad interests to replenish inspiration, gain fresh perspective, and embrace experimentation as a path for growth. I bring that same spirit into therapy as we explore the patterns that keep you feeling stuck, make space for complex emotions, and hold the possibility that more than one truth can exist at the same time.

My approach is rooted in relational care and shaped by my lived experiences as an artist, educator, and physically disabled person. These experiences have taught me that our mental health is deeply connected to the social and systemic contexts we live within. I enjoy working with queer and disabled clients, artists and creatives, and people of diverse experiences. My hope is to create a space where you are seen, supported, and free to reconnect with your creativity, strengths, and new possibilities for healing.
