I am a Registered Social Worker, Registered Psychotherapist and Certified EMDR therapist with a diverse academic background in law, mental health, trauma reprocessing, and career development. I offer counseling and therapy services across various concerns, including issues related to being raised by narcissistic parents, anxiety, depression, addiction, self-worth, life-work changes and transitions, traumatic experiences, and post-traumatic stress.

My approach is direct, interactive, and solution-oriented. While I am trained in several psychotherapeutic modalities, I primarily utilize EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy) and Deep Brain Reorienting (DBR) due to their ability to deliver rapid and effective results.

I have successfully worked with professionals from the legal community in Toronto, including those from Osgoode Hall Law School and York University, helping them navigate their unique challenges and achieve their therapeutic goal.
