Hello, and welcome to one of the most exhausting steps in seeking therapy: finding the right therapist!  Congratulate yourself for getting this far.  A little bit about myself: I am a registered psychotherapist with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario (CRPO) and am a member of the Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Association (CCPA). I have a Master of Arts in Counselling and Psychology, and a Master of Arts in English Literature. I am a certified Level 1 therapist in Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy (AEDP), and Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (EFCT). I am also trained in Brainspotting, Somatic Trauma Therapy, Complex trauma therapy (C-PTSD), Internal Family Systems (IFS), and hypnosis and guided imagery interventions (with emphasis on trauma treatment).

​

If you skipped most of the paragraph above, that’s fine. In short, I am trained and passionate about helping clients who have suffered trauma or complex trauma. I have worked with clients who have had experiences of childhood trauma, religious trauma, racism-related traumatic experiences, difficulty with mood regulation, severe anxiety/depression, and all the other comorbid soup of symptoms that comes with these experiences. My clients are typically adult members of the LGBTQIA2S+ community and/or racialized people.

​

In my therapy room, there is no shame, no judgement, and there are no taboos. I am the nerdy therapist who is comfortable to stand (or sit) with you in the most uncomfortable feelings so you don’t have to do it alone. From there, we will start getting curious about how to make our way out, together. If this sounds like something you want to try, reach out to me for a consultation so we can talk about you, specifically.
