I'm a Registered Psychotherapist who is passionate about improving the mental health for folks within BIPOC communities. As someone born in central Africa and raised in both southern and northern Africa before moving to Canada, I approach therapy with a desire to apply my awareness and understanding of BIPOC experiences within anti-oppressive, compassionate, and culturally-informed care. I work with clients who feel stuck or unsure about the path they’re on in life as well as those who may find it difficult as they navigate the challenges of day-to-day stress, various forms of burnout, periods of adjustment following big life changes, relationships, painful past experiences or unique racialized experiences. I also work with couples who may be dealing with the impact of mental health issues within their relationship, communication difficulties, and significant changes in their lives as well as couples who may feel uncertain about their future together. I offer talk therapy approaches to address habits and ways of thinking that may no longer feel helpful, and I offer evidence-based somatic therapy approaches to address emotional distress, anxiety, stress, chronic stress, and burnout. I also incorporate practices informed by my training in yoga and meditation. Ultimately, through a holistic, identity-affirming, and 2SLGBTQI+ affirming approach to therapy, I work to support each client’s unique journey towards a greater sense of balance, wellness, and continued growth.
