About Me
I support individuals, couples, and families seeking a gentle, collaborative space to explore their experiences. My trauma-informed approach helps you make sense of challenges and find a way forward. We might explore difficult feelings using emotion-focused techniques, helping you understand what they need. With 15 years in community mental health, I offer a warm, understanding presence, helping you build resilience and navigate change.
Approach
Sessions unfold with calm curiosity, attending to how emotions and patterns show up in your body, relationships, and daily choices. In Markham or online, in English, I hold a steady, collaborative rhythm—balancing reflective listening with gentle skill-building between meetings so insights carry into real life. I pay close attention to attachment moments and safety cues, naming patterns and offering short practices to try outside session. People wanting a steady, respectful space to untangle relationship and trauma-related struggles often find this approach helpful.
