A Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), is an individual licensed by the regulatory college to legally perform the controlled act of psychotherapy in Ontario. Registered Psychotherapists (Qualifying) are still working toward the required client and supervision hours to pass the registration exam, at which point they will be able to drop the "Qualifying" from their title.

My Goal is to provide culturally sensitive care, that is inclusive for all by being an LGBTQIAS2+ and BIPOC safe space. I specifically work with individuals aged 12+ in Ontario, and specialize in anxiety, depression, people pleasing, self esteem, perfectionism, boundary setting, stress and burnout, emotion regulation, trauma, relationships, and life transitions. If you are unsure if we would be a good fit, book a free consultation so we can discuss your needs together!

Counselling and Psychotherapy from a Registered Psychotherapist is covered under most extended health benefits. Please check with your individual provider to ensure my services are covered. Please note that my services are not covered by OHIP and are not covered under Psychologist or Social worker.

During your first session, we will become acquainted and discuss confidentiality and some other small housekeeping things. During this time my goal is to learn more about you and hear your story. My hope is to begin to build our relationship and understand how I can best help you. During this time we may explore your hopes for therapy and discuss any goals you may have. If there is anything I can do to make you feel more comfortable during your session please don't hesitate to let me know!
