I completed a master’s degree in education from the University of Toronto in 2014 where I studied a wide range of community development and adult learning theory models as well as various counselling frameworks, including narrative, cognitive behavioural, and solution-focused therapies. I have earned certifications from the Centre for Mindfulness Studies in Toronto and the Kripalu Center for Yoga and Health in Stockbridge, Massachusetts.

I completed my training in psychotherapy at the Toronto Institute for Relational Psychotherapy (TIRP). TIRP has been offering a rigorous psychotherapy training program for over 20 years and is one of the few programs to be recognized by the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario.

I have completed a rigorous basic training in EMDR therapy approved by EMDR Canada and EMDRIA.

I have designed and facilitated wellness programs for CAMH, the Scarborough Centre for Healthy Communities Community Hospice Program, the University Health Network and have served as faculty for the Banff Centre for the Arts.

I also have an active practice in the arts as a filmmaker, performer, and adult educator and bring a holistic and creative approach to my work with clients.

I am in ongoing clinical supervision and am committed to continual professional training and development.

I am a Registered Psychotherapist member with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario and the Ontario Society of Registered Psychotherapists and am governed by their Code of Ethics.
