About us

My path into this work started long before I earned my credentials.

Growing up, I watched my mom do deeply relational work as a hairdresser—holding space for people’s stories, transitions, grief, joy, and everything in between. Long before I had the language for it, I learned how powerful it can be to feel truly seen and supported. That early exposure planted the seed for my passion for helping people navigate change.

I graduated from the University of Ottawa in 2016 and am a Registered Psychotherapist with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario (CRPO). I am also a Canadian Certified Counsellor (CCC).

After entering the field, life brought me into one of the most challenging chapters of my own journey in my mid-twenties—a period when everything I thought I knew shifted. It was during this time that my understanding of healing deepened beyond theory and into lived experience. I began a different kind of healing journey—one that required unlearning, setting boundaries, and reprioritizing myself in ways I hadn’t before.

Today, I openly describe myself as a recovering people-pleaser who is continually practicing alignment, self-trust, and intentional living. That work informs how I show up as a therapist: grounded, compassionate, and deeply respectful of each person’s autonomy and pace.

I also understand, on a very real level, the pressures that come with parenthood, being a high-achieving professional, and working your ass off to build the life you want—often while carrying invisible emotional loads. Many of the people I work with are capable, driven, and outwardly “successful,” yet privately exhausted, overwhelmed, or disconnected from themselves. Therapy can be a place where you no longer have to hold it all together alone.

In sessions, I bring warmth, authenticity, and humor when it’s helpful. Therapy doesn’t have to be overly rigid or formal to be effective—laughter can be part of the healing process. Swearing is absolutely welcome, there is no need to be rigid and formal - healing is a messy job. Most importantly, your pace matters. We move at a speed that feels safe and sustainable for you, not one dictated by external expectations. 

I believe that while education and clinical training are essential, lived experience is just as important. The combination of professional knowledge and real-life understanding allows me to meet clients with both skill and genuine empathy—not from a place of having all the answers, but from knowing how complex and human change can be.

I am passionate about this work because it’s not something I clock in and out of—I truly eat, sleep, and breathe it. Supporting people who are ready for change, curiosity, and deeper self-understanding is something I feel incredibly grateful to do. It’s an honor to walk alongside clients as they reconnect with themselves and build lives that feel more authentic, sustainable, and whole.
