I take a holistic, integrative approach, viewing struggles through a bio‑psychosocial lens rather than simplifying them as individual flaws. In other words, I believe that mental health is influenced by biological factors (e.g. brain, body), psychological factors (thoughts, emotions, beliefs), and social contexts (relationships, systems, environment).

I draw on a blend of evidence‑based modalities, including:

• Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)

• Internal Family Systems (IFS)

• Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

• Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT)

• Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

• Mindfulness practices

• Motivational Interviewing (MI)

• Strengths-based and trauma-informed perspectives

I tailor my interventions to your specific needs, and if a particular approach doesn’t feel like a good fit, I welcome feedback and adjustments.

I work with teens (14+) and adults across Ontario, both in person (Ottawa region) and online.

I offer sessions in both English and French. 

My areas of focus include:

• Anxiety, stress, and overwhelm

• Depression and low mood

• Emotion regulation and self-esteem

• Trauma and past wounds

• Life transitions, identity, and meaning

• Relationship challenges and interpersonal growth

I also offer a free 15-minute consultation so you can see if working with me feels like a good fit.

• Collaborative & flexible: I don’t assume I know what’s best — I see you as the expert in your life.

• Nonjudgmental space: Instead of pathologizing or judging, I aim to understand, validate, and support change.

• Root-cause oriented: I don’t just manage symptoms—I aim to explore underlying patterns, beliefs, and systemic influences.

• Ethical & safe: I maintain confidentiality, ongoing supervision, and professional growth as foundational practices.
