Are you feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, stress, or life's unpredictable changes? You don't have to navigate it by yourself. I provide individual psychotherapy to adults (aged 19+) in both NS and NB who are struggling with various concerns, including anxiety, stress, and significant life transitions like relationship and career changes. I believe in the power of laughter and positivity, integrating humor and positive psychology to create a more enjoyable and effective therapeutic experience. No two people are the same, so I tailor my methods to suit your unique needs and preferences, ensuring you receive the best possible care.
My extensive training includes Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, specialized trauma treatments, and second-wave CBT approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. I strive to understand you as a whole individual, focusing on both your challenges and strengths to foster personal growth and fulfillment.
I understand that therapy can be difficult. One of my main goals in treatment is to help my clients feel comfortable and heard. I strive to understand my clients as whole individuals and to balance addressing clients’ difficulties with developing their strengths. I am dedicated to creating a safe and welcoming space for clients from all backgrounds.

My primary emphasis is on first- and second-wave cognitive behavioural therapies (e.g., Acceptance and Commitment Therapy). These approaches tend to place greater emphasis on mindfulness and living in line with one's values. Treatment will teach you how to be more present in your life, identify what is important to you, and more effectively address unhelpful thoughts and behaviours.
