In addition to being a member in good standing with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario (CRPO) and a Clinical Fellow of the American and Canadian Associations of Marriage and Family Therapists (AAMFT/CAMFT), I am also an Approved Supervisor.
I am also a professional member of the Canadian Counseling and Psychotherapy Association (CCPA). I graduated from Tyndale University in 1999 with a Master of Divinity Degree (with a specialization in Counseling). I also graduated with a Master of Psychology degree from the Adler Graduate Professional School. I am a Certified Play Therapist (currently working on my designation as a Play Therapist Supervisor). I am an EMDR Therapist as well as an EFT Therapist. I am a life-long learner and would consider myself a "professional student". I am pursuing my doctoral degree in clinical psychology.
In addition to being empathetic, I am very understanding and patient. I am very client-centered and am well-versed in a variety of modalities and techniques so that the treatment plan can be catered to your individual needs. I am hoping to help you (and/or your partner/family) in your journey towards wellness by being able to cope with the struggles you may be experiencing. By working with me, I am hopeful that you will be able to draw upon your own experiences (just like I did) in order to bring your life back into homeostasis.
I am a Certified Music Therapist and a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying). I joined Danny Seto’s private practice as a practicum student in September 2020, and completed my placement under his supervision in May 2021. Since June 2021, I have continued my work in Danny’s clinic
I have experience working with children, adults, couples, and families. In my past internship, I have employed music-based interventions including therapeutic songwriting, music improvisation, and guided meditation with music, followed by verbal processing and reflection. I use a person-centered and strengths-based approach with an interest in mindfulness-based practices and the principle of non-judging.
I also have developed an interest in counselling-based approaches including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Family Systems. I believe in providing and facilitating a safe space for others to define and gain insight into their own experiences. I view the therapeutic relationship as a collaborative process in which I strive to understand and support my client while we work together to create a plan for therapy.

"I am currently a Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology (MACP) student with Yorkville University who has previously completed a Bachelor of Arts (Wilfrid Laurier University) and a Post-Graduate Certificate (Seneca College).

I am currently working toward becoming a Registered Psychotherapist (RP) and a member of the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario (CRPO). I attend to the diverse and unique needs of individuals through empathy, attentiveness, and non-judgement.”

I am a fourth-year undergraduate student at the University of Guelph.

In addition to volunteering at Danny’s clinic, I also volunteer for another psychotherapists’ private practice where I am responsible for creating intake forms, consent forms, and designing websites. While I am home from school for the summer, I also work full- time as a gymnastics coach where I train athletes ages 3 to 18 years old.

It takes courage for us to be vulnerable, and vulnerability shows our strength to press on despite being broken. I, like you, have been through a process of rediscovery and I have learned that it is our willingness to seek help that encourages us to move towards a new sense of purpose. I am a Registered Psychotherapist (qualifying) with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario (CRPO).
I empathetically listen and employ a non-judgemental stance to your personal experiences to facilitate a safe space for you to be your authentic self. In using a client-centered and eclectic approach, I ensure that your narrative is valued and supported by conveying compassion, warmth, and respect in our collaborative, therapeutic relationship.
My approach is to meet your unique needs using a variety of interventions. With time and patience, you will be supported with the effective tools that will be tailored towards your treatment plan. I look forward to working together on your therapeutic change, journey of growth, and ongoing healing.
