Psychotherapy Provider (Registered Psychotherapist)
Credentials Verified by PM
I am a Registered Psychotherapist who provides telehealth evidence-based psychotherapy treatments to help my clients reach their best selves and build a life worth living. I am passionate about supporting people in coping with emotion regulation difficulties, relationship conflicts or loneliness, childhood or single-event traumas, suicidal ideation and lack of meaning in life.
I have 10 years of professional practice delivering evidence-based psychotherapies. My qualifications include a BA in Psychology, MA in Clinical Psychology and several trainings in evidence-based approaches including but not limited to Dialectical Behaviour Therapy and its adaptations for trauma, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Emotion Focused Therapy.
My approach to psychotherapy is based mostly on our shared humanity; we are all humans, and it is natural to have difficult moments and painful emotions sometimes (or often!).
I strive to bring a non-judgmental, compassionate, and warm approach to my clinical work. I genuinely believe (and the research data support my point of view) that building a trusting relationship between client and therapist can be the key ingredient to making psychotherapy a profound healing experience.
I have lived experience of being a POC, Latinx, immigrant woman in Canada. I make every effort to apply an Anti-Oppression lens to psychotherapy work.
