I operate from a trauma-informed, anti-oppressive, and feminist lens, and I use a variety of therapeutic modalities to help each client attain their individual goals. I celebrate diversity in all its many forms, and strive to wholeheartedly uphold each individual’s rights, autonomy, and dignity. I tailor my approach to fit the unique needs of each client, and I believe in practicing with kindness, care, and respect for all people and identities. Your name, pronouns, identity and autonomy will be wholeheartedly accepted and respected.

I hold B.A. degrees in Psychology and Film Studies from Carleton University, and an M.A. degree in Counselling and Spirituality from Saint Paul University. I am also currently an MD candidate at Windsor University School of Medicine in St. Kitt’s and Nevis. I am interested in the intersectionality between medicine and therapy. Please note, I do not offer medical advice and am not yet licensed to practice medicine.

My unique educational background allows me to utilize films and art in therapeutic ways to help clients cope with and process their life events. I also like to utilize play, music, and art therapy techniques to help clients work through some of their struggles.

In order to offer competent and relevant care to all of my clients, I regularly engage in didactic and experiential learning and unlearning. I do this work through engaging in regular supervision, consultation, personal therapy, coursework/workshops, and keeping up with current literature and research.

I offer counselling and psychotherapy services in English, Farsi, and Azerbaijani Turkish.
