Therapy Services I have always been drawn to the places where people work hard, dream big, and carry stories that are often heavier than they show. That path led me into psychology, and later into the world of high-performance sport and the creative arts. Today I work as a Clinical and Counselling Psychologist with a focus in Sport Psychology, and Certified Mental Performance Consultant, where I spend my days helping people find steadiness, clarity, and confidence in the moments that matter most. I serve as the Mental Health and Performance Lead for Inter Toronto FC in the Canadian Premier League, and I also support athletes through the Canadian Olympic Committee’s Game Plan program. I also support people working in dance, animation, and video game design, and I have worked with Olympic and national-level athletes, varsity and professional athletes, ballet students, and professional dancers. My work with athletes and performers comes from a belief that people are more than the roles they hold or the results they produce. I have always seen athletes, dancers, and creative professionals as whole people with needs that exist both inside and outside of their sport or art form. This guides the way I support clients as they navigate confidence, competitive anxiety, focus under pressure, recovery after setbacks, and the everyday challenges that shape who they are. I work with athletes who compete in time-based sports, such as those in track and field and swimming, team sports, such as those in soccer, volleyball, basketball, and hockey, and those in combat sports/ martial artists, such as those in taekwon-do and karate, and artistic performers, including ballet dancers and gymnasts. I also partner with coaches and organizations to support communication, leadership, and performance culture so training environments feel stable, trusting, and supportive. If you are looking for support in your mental health or performance journey, I would be glad to meet with you. Assessment Services I offer comprehensive psychological assessments for individuals ages 12 to 65. My assessment process is collaborative and supportive, with a focus on understanding each person’s strengths, challenges, and day to day experiences. I draw on evidence based tools and clinical interviewing to clarify concerns related to attention, learning, mood, anxiety, trauma, and overall mental health, and to develop clear and meaningful recommendations that can guide treatment, academic or workplace supports, and performance planning. Whether someone is questioning ADHD symptoms, struggling with concentration or motivation, noticing changes in mood or anxiety, or wanting a better understanding of how they function under pressure, my goal is to offer clarity and a path forward that feels practical and validating.

I believe that each individual has the capacity for growth through self-awareness and acceptance. I have supported individuals to recognize their optimal potential, develop and maintain healthy meaningful relationships, while making choices that are in the interest of oneself and others. I help my clients free themselves from disabling assumptions and attitudes so they can live fuller lives. As a trauma-informed therapist, I aim to create a warm, non-judgmental environment to facilitate growth and change. I take a culturally sensitive approach and help my clients reach their maximum potential by offering an empathetic and safe therapeutic space. Grounded in the client-centered approach, I believe in holistic healing. I custom tailor my approach for each client by integrating a variety of modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Solution-Focused Therapy (SFT), Psychodynamic therapy, and Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT). Experiencing depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, or challenges in relationships and parenting can be overwhelming when dealing with it all by yourself. Seeking professional help can empower you to cope better and regain your self. Let me support you through this and be a companion in your healing journey. If you’d like to learn more, feel free to contact me. You can also book a session or a free 15-minute phone call. I’m looking forward to working together!

Finding the right therapist can be a daunting and intimidating process. This is why I appreciate the strength and courage that it takes to reach out for help. I also admire the ambition and belief that positive change is possible. Therefore, I would be so honoured to support you in identifying your needs, goals, and taking these next steps with you. My goal is to build and maintain a strong and trusting therapeutic relationship with you, so you can feel empowered and confident, in yourself and in your decision making. I provide a comfortable and judgement-free space for you to be able to express yourself and grow. I work from a trauma-informed and person-centered lens so we can collaboratively work together and explore new and productive ways of coping, thinking, and communicating. While this process can be vulnerable and difficult at times, I also aim to bring in plenty of humour and laughter during our work together. For more information on how I do individual or couple therapy, or if you have any questions, do not hesitate to book a free 15-minute phone consultation with me.

My passion for offering psychotherapy services is deeply rooted in my personal experiences. I wanted to fill a gap and provide representation to BIPOC individuals and couples who wanted to seek therapy, but wanted someone who had a similar background as them. I am a first generation Canadian, with parents who migrated from the Caribbean and Africa. I’ve used my life experiences to help shape my identity as a counsellor and help ground me in the work I provide. My therapeutic style is grounded in collaboration, curiosity, empathy, openness, and acceptance, as I believe these are the crucial building blocks for creating safety and transformative lasting change. In therapy, my hope is to facilitate a process where clients can understand and make meaning of their experiences and feelings in a way that feels genuine and authentic. I also hope to carefully curate an environment where you can freely explore culturally sensitive matters. I value the connections I make with each of my clients and understand the complex interplay of biological, psychological, and sociological forces that influence us and shape our experiences together. My approach and experience is based predominantly on Emotion Focused Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, but I use various lenses and modalities to customize your therapeutic experiences because I appreciate that no two people are the same and can adjust accordingly to what suits your needs best.
