Hi, I’m Kim.

I’m a Registered Psychotherapist (CRPO #13293) supporting individuals and couples across Ontario. I believe therapy works best when you feel safe, understood, and met as a whole person, not a diagnosis. Whether you’re carrying past trauma, feeling anxious and stretched thin, or trying to find your way back to your partner, I’ll meet you where you are.

My Path

Before becoming a psychotherapist, I spent 20 years in operations leadership, managing teams, compliance, and high-pressure, fast-moving environments. I’ve seen firsthand how stress, burnout, and unspoken struggles affect people at work and at home. That experience shapes how I work today: grounded, practical, and deeply human.

Education & Credentials

Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology (Hons), Yorkville University

Certified Trauma Professional (CTP)

Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist

Registered Psychotherapist, College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario (#13293)

How I Work

I draw on trauma-informed and evidence-based approaches, including CBT, ACT, DBT, Solution-Focused Therapy, the Gottman Method, Bowenian family systems, and clinical hypnotherapy, and tailor them to what you need. Sessions are collaborative, paced by you, and held online so you can join from wherever you feel most comfortable in Ontario.
