About Me

I’m a dedicated and compassionate social worker, committed to supporting individuals as they navigate life’s challenges. My approach is warm and collaborative, and I strive to create a safe, non-judgmental space where you can explore your thoughts and emotions, gain insight, and build the skills needed to create meaningful change.

​

My practice is grounded in empathy, cultural sensitivity, and evidence-based approaches. I draw from a range of therapeutic modalities, including cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT), dialectical behaviour therapy (DBT), motivational interviewing, and trauma-informed care. I tailor each session to your unique needs—whether you're coping with a crisis, processing past experiences, or seeking personal growth.

​

I believe that everyone deserves to be heard and understood. Together, we’ll work toward building resilience, deepening self-awareness, and cultivating the tools to lead a more fulfilling life.

​

If you’re ready to take the next step, I invite you to reach out. I’m here to walk alongside you on your path to healing and self-discovery.
