I’m a graduate-level practicum student in the Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology program at Yorkville University. My educational background in kinesiology, psychology, neuroscience, and naturopathic medicine brings a holistic and evidence-informed perspective to my approach to mental health care.
Throughout my life, I’ve encountered experiences that empowered me to push through challenges and others that tested my resilience and perseverance. These moments have shaped who I am today. This is a glimpse into my story, now I ask, what makes the unique you, you? Through cultural humility, I hope to explore this question with you and offer the space, compassion, and respect you deserve.
As our therapeutic relationship develops, I will draw from evidence-based approaches including narrative, cognitive-behavioural, humanistic, and emotion-focused therapies to support your journey. Together, we will identify what resonates most with you, ensuring our work reflects your unique experiences, values, and goals. I believe therapy is a collaborative process, and my role is to empower you as the expert in your own life as you move toward meaningful and lasting change.
