A little about me....

I truly believe that we are all whole, resourceful and resilient.  As we move through life, many of us experience trauma and suffering.  These experiences can leave us feeling depressed, anxious, disconnected, lonely and out of control. Often we develop negative self-talk that wears us down emotionally and leads us to doubt ourselves.  In this place, we feel disconnected to our essence and stuck in negative thinking affecting our emotions and our body. 

I know how it feels because I've battled my own demons.  Through working with my inner child I've learned to shift my beliefs and my life narrative. I'm here to support you with kindness and compassion as you create a more loving relationship with yourself, which is an absolute game changer in life.  The more we can feel love and compassion for our authentic selves, the more present and engaged (and I dare say joyful and peaceful) we can be.

​

In terms of my education, I completed my MSW at the University of Toronto and a 1 year Compassionate Inquiry (a trauma-informed somatic approach to healing) program with Gabor Mate.  I have also studied CBT, DBT, ACT and Mindfulness.  On the hypnotherapy side, I'm a Rapid Transformational Therapy Practitioner and Certified Hypnotherapist.  I continue to learn and grow and I'm currently studying EMDR.
