Life can sometimes be overwhelming, leaving us feeling lost, burdened by pain, or unsure of how to move forward. I deeply understand the pain and hopelessness that can arise when you feel trapped in a desert of despair, with no clear path to escape. My goal is to offer you the rest and warmth that can relieve your thirst and exhaustion, providing a safe space where healing begins. Together, we first will work to create a green oasis within that desert—a sanctuary where you can find peace, reconnect with your true self, and gain the strength to navigate life’s challenges. Eventually, through the exploratory adventure we will find a way out from the desert to reach the serene space of your own.

My approach to therapy is grounded in collaboration and empathy. I believe that healing is a journey best taken together, with trust and mutual respect as its foundation. As we walk this path, I will be beside you, offering guidance, support, and a compassionate ear. Through our work, we will uncover the roots of your pain, explore the patterns that hold you back, and empower you to move forward with greater clarity and self-awareness.

I received comprehensive psychotherapy training at the University of Toronto, specializing in Global Mental Health. This specialized training has equipped me with the tools to address a wide range of mental health issues, while my focus on cultural diversity allows me to approach therapy with a deep respect for the unique experiences and backgrounds each person brings. I embrace intersectionality as a vital aspect of healing, understanding that our identities and experiences shape our mental health in profound ways.

In our sessions, you will find a warm, non-judgmental environment where your voice is heard, and your experiences are validated. I draw from various therapeutic modalities, including humanistic, cognitive-behavioral, and mindfulness-based approaches, to tailor our work to your specific needs. Whether you are struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, or relationship issues, my aim is to help you build resilience, foster self-compassion, and ultimately, create a life that feels meaningful and fulfilling.

The journey to healing is not always easy, but you don’t have to walk it alone. I am here to support you every step of the way, helping you transform the barren deserts of your life into landscapes of growth, self-discovery, and inner peace.
