Counselling Services - Specializing In

CURRENTLY ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS

Journeying through life can be challenging, especially as we navigate being pulled in many directions.  There are so many possible reasons we may need extra support to get through a difficult time in our life.  What happens when those troubles are compounded by our social identities? How does being racialized impact on your wellbeing?   Does having a disability further disempower you?  What additional pressures do you face when you belong to the LGBT2SQ community?  Traditional therapies tend to overlook the additional burden that people from marginalized communities carry.

I use a Race-Based trauma informed approach to support others in examining how their feelings, thoughts and behaviours are frequently tied to deeply internalized oppression and colonization.  By generating a space where these concepts can be explored in relation to other life struggles, I can show you ways to shift your mindset towards deeper self value. 

I firmly believe that racism impacts on our mental, emotional, physical and spiritual wellbeing.  By incorporating an anti-oppressive lens to my practice, I am able to elicit a more authentic therapeutic relationship with you so that we can focus on develop coping strategies that are in keeping with your whole self.
