Individual Therapy

Individual therapy is a space that is just for you. Sessions are focused on understanding what you are experiencing, how your past and present intersect, and what may be getting in the way of feeling more grounded or fulfilled. Together, we explore thoughts, emotions, patterns, and relationships at a pace that feels manageable and comfortable.

Common concerns I support

  • Anxiety and overthinking

  • Stress, burnout and emotional exhaustion

  • People-pleasing and difficulty setting boundaries

  • Low self-worth and self-criticism

  • Identity exploration and cultural experiences

  • Social anxiety and difficulty connecting with others

  • Gender and sexual identity concerns

  • Immigration and minority stress

Therapy that goes beyond coping

Our work is not only about managing symptoms, but also understanding where these patterns come from and how they continue to show up in your life and relationships.

You do not need to have everything figured out before starting; the work unfolds through conversation, reflection, and a collaborative therapeutic relationship.

I offer therapy that is trauma-informed, culturally sensitive, and affirming of queer and BIPOC identities. All services are offered in person in Ottawa and through secure online sessions across Ontario.
