My journey into mental health began after moving to Canada as a teenager and navigating my own search for belonging and identity. Between cultures and expectations, I often felt caught in between worlds. In my early years here, I met a counsellor who offered a kind of presence that stayed with me, one rooted in curiosity, compassion, and safety. That experience planted a seed and showed me how powerful it can be when someone truly listens and holds space for your story.

I hold a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from the University of Lethbridge and a Master of Counselling degree from the City University of Seattle. I am a Registered Provisional Psychologist with the College of Alberta Psychologists, licensed to practice in Alberta, both virtually and in person in Edmonton.

Over the years, I have supported children, teens, and families through grief, trauma, identity shifts, and neurodiversity. My approach is grounded in mindfulness, cultural humility, and deep respect for each person’s story.

Outside the therapy room, you will often find me dancing in the kitchen with my children, cooking something warm, or laughing with loved ones. These small joys remind me that healing is not just about overcoming, but about reconnecting with the beauty and strength already within.

At Asèdá Counselling, I offer a space where you are met with compassion, your pace is honoured, and your growth is supported gently and collaboratively.
