More about Me

Hi, I'm Monica, a registered psychotherapist (qualifying) with over 20 years of experience in coaching, mentoring, parenting, and entrepreneurship. My extensive background equips me to understand and address the complexities of anxiety and depression, particularly when they stem from self-esteem issues. As a second-generation Asian Canadian, I am deeply familiar with the unique challenges you may face and am committed to helping you navigate and overcome these obstacles.

My Korean heritage and upbringing in Toronto have shaped my approach to therapy, offering a distinctive perspective that informs my work. My personal journey has been marked by experiences with childhood trauma, loss, disordered eating and struggles with boundaries. These experiences have cultivated a profound empathy and insight into the challenges you might be facing.

I believe that therapy is a powerful tool for healing and growth, and I'm committed to creating a warm and non-judgmental space where my clients can explore their thoughts, feelings, and behaviours. My approach to therapy is integrative and tailored to each client's unique needs and goals. I draw from various therapeutic modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment therapy (ACT) approaches, and Emotionally focused therapy.

I specialize in working with clients who are struggling with disordered eating, anxiety, depression, stress, relationship issues, and life transitions. I also have experience working with individuals who have experienced trauma and abuse.

If you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or uncertain about your life, know you're not alone. Together, we can work through your challenges and create a roadmap to the life you deserve. Please feel free to reach out to me to schedule a consultation or learn more about my practice. I look forward to hearing from you!
