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 Bachelors degrees in Psychology and Film Studiesfrom Carleton University, and a Masters degree in Counselling and Spirituality from Saint Paul University. My unique educational background allows me to utilize films in therapeutic ways to help clients cope with and process their live 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.
