Master's level Practicum Student

Benefits cannot be used with Practicum Students

I am currently completing my required practicum hours and am offering reduced rate counselling. As I complete my practicum, I am being supervised by a fully Registered Psychologist.

With over a decade of experience as a healthcare Social Worker at an inner-city hospital, I have collaborated closely with high-risk populations, supporting individuals who face complex issues in both their physical and mental health. I have direct experience working in trauma, life transitions, relationship issues, as well as with anxiety, depression, and other mood disorders.

My holistic approach to therapy creates a compassionate, safe, and non-judgmental environment to explore and work through the issues that matter to you most. I bring a sense of authenticity and deep respect to the therapeutic relationship by integrating evidence-based techniques with a client-centered approach, where interventions are tailored to meet the unique needs of each person.

With a strong focus on recovery, I am passionate about guiding clients through difficult transitions and helping them cultivate new coping skills. My commitment to fostering emotional growth is grounded in the belief that everyone has the capacity to heal and thrive, and under the guidance of my supervisor, I strive to empower each client on their journey towards creating lasting and meaningful change.
