Creating a space where clients feel safe, seen, and understood is at the heart of my work. As a Registered Psychotherapist and Founder of Rooted in Resilience Psychotherapy & Wellness, I provide trauma-informed, culturally responsive, and person-centred therapy for individuals, couples, and families navigating life’s challenges. I have experience supporting clients from diverse backgrounds who are struggling with trauma, complex trauma, racial trauma, anxiety, depression, grief and loss, low self-esteem, relationship challenges, life transitions, burnout, and identity-related concerns. I also bring over a decade of experience working alongside survivors of sex trafficking and supporting individuals and families impacted by trauma and adversity. My approach is integrative because I believe therapy is not a one-size-fits-all process. I draw from evidence-based modalities including EMDR, Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Bowen Family Systems Therapy, Existential Therapy, and Prepare/Enrich for couples. I am a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP-II), have completed Levels 1 and 2 EMDR training, trauma-informed CBT certification, and EFT Externship training. I believe healing happens in the context of safety, connection, and curiosity. Whether we are processing difficult experiences, exploring long-standing patterns, strengthening relationships, or reconnecting with your sense of self, I will walk alongside you with compassion and authenticity. Your story is unique, and it would be an honour to support you as you move toward healing, growth, and resilience. I offer in-person sessions in Markham or virtual sessions across Ontario.
