By taking an attachment-based and trauma informed approach to therapy, I believe that people have good reason for their current unhelpful responses/patterns in life. Often, these responses/patterns were developed early in life and were functional once upon a time. However, people may find that acting in old ways is not serving them in new situations and with new people. With compassion and empathy, I work with clients to cultivate awareness of the patterns that are no longer serving them, help elicit adaptive change in the areas they are struggling with, and assist them in accepting the things that they cannot control.

I work with clients using Emotionally Focused Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Play Therapy, and Gottman Couples Therapy modalities. I have specialized training and experience working with perinatal populations. I also provide faith-integrated counselling to Muslim clients preferring such service.

I view therapy as your safe space to grow, heal, and become your best self. I believe that one’s past does not dictate the future and that every person is worthy of a whole-hearted and meaningful life filled with love and connection.
