Hey, I'm Cynthia
I offer a warm, non-pathologizing space rooted in collaboration, helping you shift patterns that no longer serve you and move toward your most authentic self.

A Little About Me
Seeking therapy is a meaningful step, often shaped by some of our most vulnerable experiences. I understand how difficult it can be to reach out, and I strive to offer a warm, supportive, and grounded space where you can safely explore what you're going through.
I view emotions as valuable sources of information that can guide us toward growth and self-understanding. My approach is non-pathologizing and focused on helping you shift patterns that no longer serve you in practical, sustainable ways. I am a firm believer that greatness often lies outside of our comfort zone, and I can provide the gentle challenge needed to help you orient towards your most authentic self. However, my deep commitment to collaboration also means that I will walk alongside you at a pace that feels right for you.
Rooted in a person-centred approach, I will meet you where you are beyond labels or diagnoses. I draw from emotion-focused therapy, cognitive-behavioural therapy, and trauma-informed therapy, and I also integrate attachment-focused work and internal family systems so that our work together is uniquely tailored towards implementing the changes that you would like to see. I also bring a holistic understanding of how economic, social, and systemic factors impact mental health, which can make it feel less overwhelming to navigate a system that doesn't always feel designed for our success.
I have over six years of experience working in community and mental health settings. I work with youth, adults, couples, and families navigating concerns such as trauma, depression, anxiety, cultural and racial identity, and life transitions.
Outside of my professional role, I'm a wife, mother, and friend who feels most grounded in nature, whether outdoors or surrounded by the many plants in my home. I am most at peace when I am tending to my indoor garden, and I'm always looking to expand my horticultural knowledge! The values I bring into the therapy room are an extension of who I am.
If this resonates with you, I invite you to book a free 15-minute consultation so we can explore how I can support you on your journey towards greater growth and healing.
