I am a Jamaican living in Vancouver. As a recent immigrant, I am aware of how the process and experience of forging a new life can bring both satisfaction and distress especially in intimate relationships.
Life transitions can cause emotional stress and often, we need help to tap into our own inherent strengths. I work from an anti-oppression lens and am a firm believer in intersectionality as part of the human condition.
Sexuality and sexual behaviours can also be challenging for some but, I am passionate about working with individuals and couples of all genders, orientations, races and ethnicities. I also specialize in addictions which I view as a maladaptive coping skill for traumatic situations.

Whatever you’re struggling with, you don’t have to deal with it alone. It’s possible to heal from trauma, find internal peace, and learn new skills that help you transform into the person you want to be and step into the life you want to have. It takes courage to seek support and work through your problems, but with time and commitment, therapy is one of the most rewarding things you can do for yourself.
I compassionately treat you as a whole person rather than just a diagnosis; warmly acknowledging and affirming important aspects of your identity such as race, gender, and sexual orientation. I believe in having an honest, collaborative partnership where we work together to resolve your concerns, processing trauma and regulating difficult emotions.
I believe that providing a safe and nonjudgmental space is essential to the therapeutic relationship, so rest assured that you can entrust me with your most painful stories. I’m here to support you in recognizing and building upon your strengths as we collaboratively develop strategies to improve your life in meaningful ways.

I’m a Registered Social Worker in Ontario. I’m most passionate about empowering folks who were marginalized. I have over 15 years of experience in the mental health field. My career has been devoted to helping individuals, couples, families, and groups with their mental health needs. I provide counselling services to those who are struggling with life’s challenges. I specialize in cognitive-behavioural therapy and mindfulness-based stress reduction approaches to promote emotional well-being.
I strive to provide a safe space for clients to explore their innermost thoughts and feelings so they can gain insight into their behaviour patterns and make positive changes in their lives.
Life is an ever-ongoing process of development, including understanding who we are. But we often feel a sense of shame when we experience life shifts, particularly in our communities where change is often perceived as a threat.
I want to help folks see that change is a sign of growth and progress. My goal is to help my clients find balance, peace, and joy through self-compassion and understanding.

“I am not what has happened to me; I am what I choose to become.”
–Carl Jung.
If you are stuck in the “I wish things had been different” mode,” and feel like there is little hope for change in your life, therapy provides an avenue to be heard, to grieve, to discover acceptance, and to create a new path forward, as you and I work together to formulate small, but consistent steps toward your goal. I believe that each person is unique and brings individual strengths and skills to forge new paths in their lives and in their relationships. I work with both individuals and couples.
My particular strengths are working with the mind-body connection in areas such as mindfulness to address the overtaxed central nervous system, experiential therapy to process the authenticity and intuition of emotions, and cognitive behavioural therapy to restructure thoughts that contribute to dysfunctional relationship with self and others. I have also trained in Solution Focused Therapy, Family Systems, Emotionally Focused Therapy, and bring a working knowledge of integrating Spirituality into your mental health care plan, if so desired.
My own journey in mental health has embodied the mind, body and spirit, to heal and thrive. I provide a safe, and compassionate space so that you can feel heard and supported to move toward the change you seek. If you want to discover whether I can be the right therapist for you, I offer a free 15 minute telephone consultation. I look forward to hearing from you.
