ABOUT ME

Hi, it's nice to meet you! 

​

If you're here, you're looking to get to know me a bit more. A few things that I can say about myself... I'm always ready to help. In whatever capacity, my passion is to be there for others. I love being able to see someone be their best selves, learn from previous patterns and difficulties, and find new meaning in their present day. I'm a flexible, eclectic therapist that lets you be the driver in the car. I'm merely here as a form of support, you do all of the work. I will uplift with positivity and sometimes humour, but also not afraid to challenge you where you need. 

​

I have a strong interest in working with clients who have anxiety, depression, self-esteem issues, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD; mainly checking, counting, ordering, mental rituals, cleaning, perfectionism), body-focused repetitive behaviours (BFRP), trauma, life transitions, relational issues, sleeping issues, grief and intergenerational trauma. 

​

I also have an increased interest in working with the BIPOC community - being a visible minority myself, I feel like I can come from a lived experience to help with clients. In addition, I have an increased interest working with the post-secondary student population.

​

I work from a collaborative, strengths-based, client-centred and biopsychosocial evidenced-based frameworks. Some of the modalities I work from, but are not limited to, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Mindfulness, Pyschodynamic, Internal Family Systems (IFS) and exposure therapy. 

I received my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology (BA) from the University of Ottawa and my Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology (MACP) from Yorkville University. I am a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) through the College of Registered  Psychotherapists of Ontario (CRPO), in good standing, and a member of the Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Association (CCPCA). I am supervised by Riva Mylabathula MC(Psych), RSW.
