背景

I’m a Registered Social Worker with over 12 years of experience supporting clients through trauma, anxiety, and life transitions. My approach is rooted in EMDR, polyvagal theory, somatic therapy, DBT, ACT, and mindfulness. I’ve completed extensive training in trauma therapy and bring a grounded, compassionate presence to each session. My background also includes yoga and movement-based practices, which support mind-body healing. I work virtually across Ontario, helping clients reconnect with safety, self-trust, and inner resilience.

與我經歷治療的體驗

My approach is trauma-informed, compassionate, and grounded in EMDR, polyvagal theory, and somatic therapy. Sessions are collaborative and paced gently to support safety and nervous system regulation. Whether we’re exploring beliefs, processing trauma, or building coping tools, I meet you where you are. Clients describe me as calm, warm, and non-judgmental — someone who helps them feel truly seen. Therapy with me often feels like finally exhaling after holding your breath for too long.

聚膚迷走神經整合快速眼動脫敏療法 (Polyvagal EMDR)

Polyvagal EMDR combines the power of trauma processing with gentle nervous system regulation. This approach helps you feel safer and more grounded while working through painful memories. By understanding how your body responds to stress (fight, flight, freeze), we can tailor the therapy to move at your pace—supporting healing without feeling overwhelmed. Many clients find that this method helps them release old patterns, reconnect with themselves, and feel more in control of their emotions. It’s a compassionate, body-aware way to process trauma and reclaim your sense of safety and self.

創傷知情療法 (Trauma-informed Therapy)

Trauma-informed therapy is about creating a space where you feel safe, seen, and supported. It helps reduce overwhelming symptoms, makes it easier to manage emotions, and builds trust between you and your therapist. This approach gently supports you in understanding your past without judgment, and empowers you to develop healthier ways of coping. Over time, it can help you feel more grounded and less dependent on crisis supports, while making steady progress in your healing journey.

辯證行為療法 (Dialectical Behaviour Therapy)

DBT is a skills-based therapy that helps you manage intense emotions, build stronger relationships, and reduce self-destructive patterns. It blends mindfulness, emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and communication skills to support you in feeling more balanced and in control. In sessions, we focus on both acceptance and change—helping you honor where you are while also making meaningful shifts. Many clients find DBT empowering because it gives them real tools they can use right away, in everyday life. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, shut down, or stuck in cycles that don’t serve you, DBT offers practical support to help you feel more grounded, present, and confident.

接納與承諾療法 (Acceptance And Commitment Therapy)

ACT helps you make space for difficult thoughts and feelings, without letting them control your life. Instead of trying to push pain away, we work on accepting what’s outside of your control—and committing to actions that move you toward the life you want. You’ll learn how to unhook from unhelpful thoughts, connect with your values, and take meaningful steps forward. Many clients find ACT helpful when they feel stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from themselves. It’s a gentle but powerful way to build resilience, clarity, and a deeper sense of purpose.
