I'm a bilingual clinical social worker with a Master's degree in Social Work from the University of Toronto, with over five years of experience working with individuals, couples, and families facing a wide variety of emotional and mental health challenges. I am a member of the Order of Social Workers of Quebec (permit #BARF2207060TS) and the Ontario College of Social Workers. I have worked in hospitals, CLSCs (local community health centers), community organizations, as well as in private practice. At Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre in Toronto, I was part of an intensive program supporting individuals living with treatment-resistant obsessive-compulsive disorder. These experiences have allowed me to develop a deep understanding of how distress can manifest in daily life, and the importance of welcoming people with kindness, practical tools, and a grounded presence.

In my practice, I pay close attention to both what people experience inside and the factors that surround them, including their relationships, life stories, and often-unspoken experiences. This helps me understand the whole person, not just individual symptoms. My approach is rooted in respect, openness, and flexibility, drawing on a blend of systemic, emotional, dialectical, cognitive, and trauma-informed methods. I also bring an intercultural perspective that recognizes the diverse ways identity and culture shape each person’s experience.

I have learned that support is not one size fits all. It can hold space for both vulnerability and strength, for what feels difficult and for what brings hope. My intention is to offer a space where you can bring what matters to you, make sense of it in your own way, and move forward at a pace that feels right.
