About

I am a counsellor passionate about supporting children, adolescents, and families through life's challenges with empathy, collaboration, and evidence-informed practice. My experience includes working with youth experiencing a range of emotional, behavioural, and mental health concerns, while partnering with caregivers, schools, and community stakeholders to provide holistic support. I believe meaningful change begins with building trusting therapeutic relationships and understanding each individual's unique strengths, experiences, and context. I strive to create a safe, non-judgemental space where clients feel heard, empowered, and supported in working towards their goals. I am committed to continuous learning and professional growth, with a particular interest in youth mental health, trauma-informed practice, caregiver engagement, and systemic approaches. I value collaboration, reflective practice, and opportunities to contribute to strengthening mental health support within the community.
