My Ethical Practice
At the core of my therapeutic approach lies a strong commitment to ethical practice, where the well-being, dignity, and confidentiality of my clients are always prioritized. I adhere strictly to professional ethical guidelines, ensuring a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental space for each individual.
Commitment to Ethical Practice
Following the the ethical standards set by my professional associations (OTSTCFQ & OPQ in Quebec, Canada), I always keep your best interests at heart. My work is grounded in respect for your autonomy, while I provide the guidance and tools you need to navigate your unique journey toward growth and well-being. Confidentiality is a cornerstone of my practice—your privacy is protected, and I maintain transparency regarding the process and boundaries of therapy.
Cultural Sensitivity & Awareness
Confidentiality is essential to the therapeutic process. I work hard to create an environment where you can feel safe, knowing that what you share in therapy remains private. Trust is fundamental to our work together, and I prioritize fostering a relationship built on respect and security.
Inclusion & Diversity
My work is deeply committed to creating a welcoming and inclusive space for all clients, regardless of background, identity, or experience. Whether you identify as a member of a marginalized group or not, you can expect an environment where your voice is valued and your uniqueness is embraced.
Trauma-Informed Approach
My approach to therapy is trauma-informed, ensuring that every step of our work together promotes safety and empowerment. I acknowledge the impact trauma can have on the mind and body, and I integrate strategies that help clients feel supported in their healing process, without re-traumatization.
Affirming Mental Health Care
My practice is about affirming the identities and experiences of my clients. I work to ensure that your personal identity is always respected, and that the care you receive is empowering. Whether you are navigating complex life transitions or seeking emotional support, I am committed to providing mental health care that aligns with who you are and helps you thrive.
Working with Queer and Gender-Nonconforming Communities
As an advocate for inclusivity, I provide an affirming environment for queer, transgender, and non-binary individuals. I recognize the importance of creating a space where you can express your identity freely and receive support tailored to your unique needs. My approach is rooted in respect, understanding, and a commitment to breaking down barriers in mental health care for gender and sexually diverse clients.
Ongoing Education & Cultural Competency
I believe in the importance of continuous learning. To ensure I remain culturally competent and sensitive to diverse needs, I regularly engage in professional development, keeping up with social justice issues, diversity, and inclusion practices. This ensures I can provide the best care for all my clients.
