About Me
I understand that therapy can feel overwhelming,
that it can be hard and demanding work that requires vulnerability when facing
and feeling emotions that are difficult to cope with. My goal as a therapist,
is to tailor my approach to ease this process by creating an open,
compassionate, non-judgmental, and collaborative space where we will work to
help you better understand internal self, your values, and your relationship to
yourself and to others. I work with individuals, couples, families, children
(6+) and youth and offer a free 15-minute consultation to ensure I am the right
fit for your journey.
I
employ a multicultural, individualized, and integrative approach to therapy. I
believe Psychotherapy is both a science and an art. I integrate science through
the knowledge I have gained in my education and training. My approach
integrates multiple therapeutic modalities that best suit your unique needs and
challenges. I most often rely on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), psychodynamic
theories including Attachment Theory and Family Systems, Emotion Focused
Therapy (EFT), as well as Mindfulness-Based Interventions (MBI). The art of
psychotherapy is another matter. It speaks to our unique interactions we
experience together during sessions. It informs the infinite complexities of a
human being that can only be untwined through human collaboration and connection.
The art of therapy requires me to be deeply rooted in each session we have
together, with science as my toolkit.
I
have been fortunate to gain experience from a range of clinical populations,
from children with learning disabilities, to teens developing and learning to
manage their emotional experiences, to adults experiencing relationship issues,
to elderly end-of-life clients at the Toronto General Hospital. This breadth of
experience has helped me tailor my approach to walk alongside clients focused
on a wide range of areas. In my work with individuals, I focus on your
individual context, family unit, culture and community. Similarly, with couples
and families, I strive to understand your individual needs within the context
of your relationship or family unit. Finding authenticity in your relationships
can help strengthen communication and help foster a deeper understanding of one
and another’s needs. At Psychotherapy Collective, our online clinic, we strive
