I specialize in OCD and anxiety as well as young adult and women's issues. These areas have been a huge part of my life and areas in which I have experience and expertise in. I have extensive training in OCD and anxiety and this area of mental health has had a significant impact on my own life. My lived experience and my ongoing research and education help me to effectively treat and understand people who suffer from these two crippling issues. OCD can be one of the hardest and most isolating mental health issues. Many of my clients have spent years trying to cope with their anxiety all while keeping it a secret from everyone around them. There are many subtypes of OCD - many of which you may not know about. If you experience anxiety that is repetitive in nature, it is worth visiting the IOCDF website to understand if what you're dealing with is OCD or anxiety. If this is you, I can help. If you're not sure, let me help you figure it out.I work with young adults up to the age of 30 and young people beyond 30. Everyone at any age can face challenges in life. Including, but not limited to depression, complex trauma, ADHD, and substance abuse. Sometimes these issues work alone, often times they work together. Any issue you bring is faced with an open heart, an open mind, and an approach where you lead. My goal in therapy is to help you reach your goals and feel better in life. I want you to feel empowered and whole and this includes understanding the various parts of yourself so that we can help you through the difficult times you may face. Most importantly. I do not force a treatment modality on my clients, although there are some modalities I find that help my clients the best. These are cognitive behavioural therapy (such as ERP), mindfulness and internal family systems. Acceptance and commitment therapy is also a big part of my practice. I also take a person-centred approach and am trauma informed. Most importantly, I listen to the client first to understand their needs before suggesting a treatment or technique. I never want my clients to feel uncomfortable.Let me help you trust yourself, find your true self, and guide you through your path of self-discovery and healing. You have it within you to heal and I am here to help you find the strength you already have inside you to overcome the challenges you face.
