Hello, radiant soul! I am an Art Therapist with a Social Work background. I specialize in trauma and I work with children, adults and families to help them recognize and affirm their resilience and resources. I aim to offer a safe haven for self-discovery and transformation through creative arts. I see humans as the artists of their lives, who use a unique pallet to distinguish and define them. I am a guest on their inner journey, helping them to navigate their emotions, memories, and identities that shape their whole person. My role is to support my clients to find creative paths to heal, repair and develop better coping skills.

I am a warm Social Worker, who understands that life can be very difficult and overwhelming at times. I am dedicated to helping clients to successfully face, manage, and overcome these very real difficulties. I also support clients in building stronger and more useful coping strategies to deal with the difficult situations and elements of life that cannot be changed or controlled. I help clients to identify and set meaningful goals and to hold clients accountable for their development and for making progress toward their goals. In this way, I help clients to achieve greater balance, resilience, peace, and success in their lives.

To your heart, body, and soul. I invite you to explore the inner life that is waiting for you with creativity and imagination, strengthening your inner resources, as well as connecting with yourself and your community. Art therapy involves creation and exploration through artistic media with an art therapist. It enables the creative expression of emotions, awareness, and self-discovery in a safe and welcoming space. It can help you explore and connect with your true self. When emotions are overwhelming, art becomes a space where you can settle down, unravel, and reweave the meaning of your experience. No talent needed to benefit.

I welcome older children (aged 11+), youth, and adults to my practice. Through discussion or creative process, we carve out a space to hear from your voice of awareness, and from there, identify its needs and goals. From stuck habits to difficult relationship dynamics, we can identify parts of your life that both are and are not serving you; so as to strengthen the parts of you that nurture the more positive aspects, while working to better understand and manage the aspects that may be holding you back. Through a blend of psychodynamic, trauma-informed, and humanistic approaches, we honour and explore your identity and its roles.

I invite you, if you are tired of living on the "autopilot" mode and are looking to regain full control over your life, to read a bit more. Do you have a strong desire to embark on a journey of self-exploration and inner healing, fostering self-acceptance, compassion, playfulness and readiness to confront hidden parts of yourself? Have you tried traditional therapies such as talk therapy, and you still feel stuck? We experience life with our bodies and senses, and they all store our stories and experiences. I invite you on a self-exploration beyond words...

I am a social worker with close ties to the Latino community, I connect with each client in a gentle manner that allows them to feel truly heard, understood, acknowledged, and validated. Counselling and Social Work are my passion and life's calling. I strive to create a warm space where clients feel safe and comfortable in discussing difficult experiences that they are currently facing, in sharing past traumas and difficulties, and in planning to meet future challenges. I enjoy helping clients to experience renewed feelings of hope for the future and discover new possibilities for moving forward in a way that works for them.

Are you struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship issues or feeling lost which affects your day-to-day? When we are unsatisfied and frustrated by expectations, getting through our days can be challenging with the constant pondering of how our life could be better. I believe everyone should have a life worth living which is why I offer counselling services for clients living with anxiety disorders, depressive disorders, relationship issues, life transitions, body image and chronic dieting issues, and career and academic success. I start by understanding not only what brings you to therapy, but who you are as a person.

The human experience, while shared, can sometimes feel lonely and isolating. I am a trauma-informed, anti-oppression centered therapist, who has worked with people who are experiencing difficult life circumstances. We can work on depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, life transitions, confusion about life direction, motivation and relationships. Working together, we can problem-solve and build capacity towards coping with difficulties. I am person-centered, and use psychodynamic, and somatic approaches to help you meet your goals.

I am a registered Psychotherapist and Social Worker in QC. I subscribe to the idea that suffering is a natural part of the human experience; we suffer and experience discomfort so we can cope and grow. It is possible however that we can exceed our threshold of suffering and our normal coping mechanisms are no longer sufficient. This is when our discomfort begins to feel like pain, anxiety, and depressive thoughts and is no longer beneficial to our growth. I like to think of my role as the collaborator and support system for times like these.

My approach can be described as strength-based and client-centered. I believe that the client must feel empowered, supported and dignified at all times. Clients who have had complicated lives, will often have trouble envisioning positive outcomes to their life story. This can impede and prevent growth and self- fulfillment. My job is to help clients to identify obstacles, work through impeding emotions, and arm them with new strategies. The effort should be collaborative. With my guidance, clients can shed their "negative narrative" and thus feel a sense of renewed hope. The future should seem one of possibility.

Personal growth is an ongoing process that often requires focused attention and accompaniment. Results are based on the ability to built a trusting relationship that is interactive and collaborative. I am a bilingual, licensed, therapist that has worked in field for over 30 years. My interactive style tends to be warm, engaging and down to earth; while at the same time being clear and direct. I am also known to introduce creative and humorous approaches to the interactive process and the presenting challenges. This occurs through a "strengths based" approach and in a relaxed and welcoming setting.
