Co-Founder, Registered Psychotherapist, (She/Her), First Responder Trained, Trauma Immersed Therapist

Like you, I have experienced life’s highs and lows and I understand that the lows are sometimes too hard to handle on one’s own. I draw from these experiences when I support my clients. There is great courage in taking the step to seek help and you are brave for searching to support your personal well-being.

Our sessions will be in an environment where you are safe and supported. I strive to ensure that you feel heard and can comfortably express your troubles. Together, we will seek resolutions to your concerns in an up close in-depth way to gain a richer understanding of your circumstances. I believe you have the strength within you to tackle what is troubling you most and I am here to help guide you towards finding that inner power and to find the real you.

Whatever is distressing you, my goal is to help you recognize your internal strengths, and maximize the resources, tools and the options available to you.

In our individual sessions you will find hopeful, intuitive, compassionate, humorous, and positive perspectives.

I welcome and am happy to support clients of all sexualities, identities, races, ethnicities, backgrounds, and beliefs into my office with compassion and acceptance. My clients are ready to do the deep work.

Registered Psychotherapist, (She/Her), Trained in DBT

As a therapist, my goal is to create a warm and validating space where you feel listened to. It is important to me to work together with you to create a strong therapeutic relationship. I respect your needs and value your feedback every step of the way. 

My main area of practice is with highly sensitive people who may feel as though the world can be intense, confusing, or invalidating. If you find that you feel emotions deeply or need a lot of time to process through your emotions, I would be happy to support you in finding validating ways of coping with and managing life.

Areas of interest: Parenting, postpartum, perinatal mental health, and perinatal grief and loss. Navigating life as a highly sensitive person. Couples and family therapy (safe and welcoming for queer couples and families). 

Outside of the office, I'll be practicing yoga, hiking, camping, baking, lap swimming, or reading way too many books at once!

Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), Mediator, Professor, Trauma-Informed Therapist (She/Her)

You may feel overwhelmed, anxious, or stuck in patterns that no longer serve you. Whether you're navigating past trauma, relationship challenges, or feelings of self-doubt, you don’t have to do it alone. I provide a safe, compassionate space where you can feel heard and supported without judgment—where healing and meaningful change feel possible.

With over a decade of experience supporting vulnerable populations—including LGBTQ+ individuals, newcomers, survivors of abuse, and neurodivergent individuals—I offer trauma-informed, culturally responsive care. Using an integrative approach, I tailor therapy to your needs, drawing from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Narrative Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy. Together, we’ll work on building resilience, processing emotions, and developing practical strategies to help you move forward.

In addition to psychotherapy, I bring extensive experience as a court mediator specializing in high-conflict disputes and resolution. My background in mediation enhances my ability to navigate emotionally charged situations, foster understanding, and help clients find constructive solutions.

Beyond my clinical work, I am also a Professor at George Brown College, where I teach Legal Research and Writing. My passion for education extends to mentoring aspiring legal and mental health professionals, empowering them with the skills to advocate for others effectively.

I offer therapy in English, Mandarin, and Cantonese, with both virtual and in-person sessions available.

Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), (She/Her), First Responder Trained

Life throws curveballs, and sometimes you just need a safe space to talk about it all. I'm a psychotherapist who believes in creating a judgment-free zone where you can be completely yourself. I bring warmth, understanding, and a touch of humor to our sessions, because sometimes, laughing at the absurdity of it all can be the most healing thing.

As we embark on this journey together, my priority is to create a space where you feel truly seen and heard. My approach centers on transparency and authentic connection. You'll find our work together is grounded in honest conversation and collaboration to increase awareness and understanding, seek solutions, and build towards your goals. I focus on tailoring evidence-based techniques to your specific situation, ensuring we work together to achieve your personalized goals.

It takes courage to consider therapy, and I am glad that you have taken the first step toward seeking support. Let's find a way to make the challenges of life feel a little less heavy.

Registered Psychotherapist, (They/Them), First Responder Trained

The idea of therapy can be rather intimidating and overwhelming, but with the right support and person(s) on your team, you can begin to heal and make meaningful changes to your life. I think it’s important to have open dialogue wherein you can freely explore and be curious about your thoughts, emotions, and behaviours.

As your therapist, I strive to make sure that you feel heard, understood, and validated throughout our time together. Therapy is different for everyone and taking an individualized approach means that we can work together to find strategies and ways to process thoughts and emotions that are tailored specifically to you. The therapeutic relationship is the foundation that everything else we will do is built on, so it’s important to me that you feel safe to express yourself open and honestly. 

I like to use a collaborative, strength-based, trauma-immersed approach wherein we collaborative work towards what feels authentic to you. Every person’s journey in therapy is different, and I strive to create an environment where we can address whatever is distressing for you so you can live a more fulfilling life.

Specific area of interest: First Responders (family and spouses of included), LGBTQIA+ experiences, Anxiety, Depression, Trauma, Athlete mental health issues, sleep issues, self-esteem, and school related stressor. I also have experience supporting individuals who are neuro-divergent.

When I’m not at the office, I enjoy yoga, reading fantasy or crime novels, listening to music or a podcast (True Crime is a go to), or playing video games. Truthfully, I get the most joy from animals, especially my dog Asta, and watching documentaries.

Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), RN, BSc, Professional Art Therapist, (She/Her)

We are often the hardest on ourselves. Our voice of self-criticism can get so loud. Sometimes we care so much about those around us that we lose space to care for ourselves. We push down our own needs…..until we can’t anymore. As a mother and a nurse, I have experienced the pressure to spread myself thin, and have experienced the burnout and exhaustion that results. I have a special passion in supporting women through relationship challenges and life transitions, as well as working with issues of self-acceptance, self-compassion, and burnout.

In therapy, we can explore thoughts and patterns that may be blocking our ability to be compassionate to ourselves, listen to our own needs, and care for ourselves. Therapy can create a space where you can slow down, and pay attention to the quiet voice of your own needs and wants that is often drowned by the busyness of everyday life.

My focus in therapy is creating a warm and compassionate space where you are comfortable to express and explore your thoughts, feels, and experiences. I believe that you have the inner wisdom to find solutions, and my role is to help you connect to and trust that inner wisdom. I also offer art therapy for those who may be interested. Art therapy incorporates the use of art making and creation into therapy to connect you to your intuition and emotion, or connect to experiences that may be difficult to put into words. My art therapy practice has been focused on working with children and youth experiencing anxiety, trauma, and emotion regulation.

I offer a free 15-minute consultation, where we can discuss what has brought you to therapy, and what your goals are. Connecting to ourselves is a lifelong journey, and I welcome you to book online if you would like to start your personal therapy journey!
