Our life’s journey is comparable to the thrill of a rollercoaster ride. It has elements of both, surprise and wonder! The highs, lows, twists, and turns encapsulate and capture our entire human existence into the vessels of our souls. The amalgamation of these human experiences and emotions are as unique and intricate as our personal thumbprints.

As adults, we often find ourselves puzzled by the complexities of our own minds—our distinct thought patterns, our hidden motivations, and the intricacies of our psyche. Now, imagine the bewildering challenge this presents for young hearts and minds, who are still in the early stages of development and growth, and yet navigating through the vast nuances of emotional landscapes. A strong connection and support of a trusted adult can truly assist children in uncovering their stories and tapping into their deepest side to discover what lies beneath their day to day behavior, emotions and actions.

I welcome you to my sessions, where I work sincerely to create a heartfelt connection and a safe space for children to honor their truth and authenticity. I operate from strong personal intuition and use a holistic approach to understand my client’s personal needs. I rely primarily on Rogerian Person-Centered philosophy, Attachment Theory, Play Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, and Solution Focused Therapy and I bring variety to my sessions for self-discovery and fun.

I am a Learner Support Team Teacher from the past 8 years and a certified School Counsellor. My experience and expertise as a Special Ed Teacher has allowed me to work with a diversified group of children, especially those who have exceptionalities, are neurodiverse and who may have behavior and/or academic challenges at school and home. My educational background in B.A (Psyc), B.Ed and M.Ed in School Counselling, coupled with my deep passion for working with children, has shaped me into the professional counsellor I am today.I strongly believe the core to all mending starts at the heart center, with kindness and relationship building. Let’s heal together.
