Are you feeling stuck in the same patterns? Overwhelmed by depression, anxiety, or major life changes? You’re not alone—life can be incredibly challenging. I specialize in helping with anxiety, self-esteem, coping skills, and family and relationship issues.

Whether you’re a student, a working professional, or dealing with career stress, I’m here to support you in reclaiming your authentic self and putting your needs first.

Together, we can address poor boundaries, people-pleasing tendencies, and relationship anxiety, guiding you back to your authentic self and closer to what truly matters to you. Imagine therapy as your sanctuary—a space where shame and others’ expectations melt away.

Here, you’ll rediscover the power in your differences, finding strength in authenticity.

Let’s journey together, exploring your thoughts and behaviours to break free from what no longer serves you.

It’s time to reclaim your narrative and thrive on your terms. Reach out, and let meaningful change begin.

Life is difficult! But it is important to know that you don’t have to do it alone.

From personal experience, I know how a non-judgmental, safe, and empowering space can allow for self-exploration and personal growth. As a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) with the CRPO, my goal is to be aware of your individual needs and put your well-being first. I utilize a client-centred approach that integrates mindfulness, cognitive behavioural therapy, and solution focused therapy to collaborate with clients on their desired goals and outcomes of our sessions.

For the past five years, I have been working in the long-term care and retirement home industry. I became profoundly aware of how mental health struggles affect everyone, regardless of age, race, gender, socio-economic status, religion etc. Without hesitation, I decided to switch occupations and pursue a career in mental health counselling!

Through my professional experiences, I have worked a great deal with individuals struggling with Alzheimer’s, aging, caregiver support as well as anxiety and depression. However, I am equipped to work with client’s who are dealing with a wide range of stressors and concerns.

I believe in holding space for every part of yourself in an empathetic and accepting way where you are free to share who you are. I am here to be a part of a healing process that happens at your own pace. I hold an integrative approach to therapy; focusing on person-centred and psychodynamic approaches with special attention to inner-child work and attachment styles. I commonly integrate cognitive-behavioural, strengths-based, or solution-focused approaches in a collaborative way.

I am a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), and am currently working towards a full registration.

I have experienced my fair share of school and relationship stress, especially during my late adolescent and early adult years. My experience as a client in psychotherapy drastically improved my mental health and helped me to live an authentic and fulfilling life. I currently work with young women who may be looking to do the same, struggling to find themselves or are experiencing anxiety or depression due to cultural, family, relationship, or career stress.

My enthusiasm and passion for healing stems from my confidence in the powerful impact that a judgement-free, safe space to speak about weighing issues can have on someone’s life. I would be honoured to walk alongside you in your healing journey.

Aniin, Hello!

As a Registered Social Worker and a passionate Indigenous Woman, I provide a non-judgemental space in which you can feel free to be your authentic self to explore difficult thoughts and emotions.

Trained in many areas of psychotherapy, for a variety of reasons, including anxiety, depression, stress, couple’s issues, trauma, self-esteem, and addictions, my goal is to treat you as the whole person, where we, as a team, decide what goals are best for you in each moment. We are complex beings, where biology, psychology, and support systems, all play an important and integral role in our thoughts, feelings, and behaviours.

Furthermore, when you are ready, there may be some past events we can unpack and help you begin to heal from. That brings me to our alliance. I want you to be safe, and we therefore will go at your pace, so that you can feel comfortable to disclose what you want to, when you are ready, at your own stages in our process.

A little bit about me is that I am a father of two, and have been married for over ten years. I went through some difficult times in my own life, sought therapy, and it helped me get on a better path. I was so inspired by the field, that I left teaching to pursue this career. It is my hope that I will be able to assist you in your journey, as I was helped on mine.
