Connection with others is vital, offering us a sense of safety, support, and belonging. Yet, there is so much in life that can block our ability to feel safe in relationships. Past traumas, emotional wounds, or unresolved issues may cause us to fear vulnerability or to build walls as a form of self-protection. Trust issues, negative experiences, or unhealthy patterns of relating can block the sense of safety that is needed for deep connection. Ultimately, people want to experience relationships where they are loved for who they are, where they can grow and evolve, and where connection offers a sense of wholeness.

Imagine if your relationships could be a source of joy & comfort, rather than stress & heartache. What a relief that would be. I can help you get there. Maybe you & your partner are struggling; stuck in old patterns with poor communication, feeling disconnected & wanting more intimacy. Maybe you're dealing with infidelity or another kind of betrayal. Maybe you're having difficulty relating to family members or friends - unresolved tension with parents, conflict with your kids, or feeling like you can't be your self around others. Perhaps you're feeling stressed out, anxious, lonely, and you want to stop being so hard on yourself.

You're always someone worth caring for - can't stress that one enough. Therapy is an invitation to explore your relationships with others, with yourself; to find safety and meaning, in whatever that looks like. For some folks, that means negotiating the things that used to work but no longer do, for others that might be truly feeling like they can feel safe with themselves.

Society used to look at mental health issues as something to be ashamed of, but we don't have to any more. Mental health, like physical health, is something that absolutely everyone must work at to feel good. It's rewarding work, but it isn't always easy. Traumatic events or even just daily struggles can sometimes lead to addictions, poor relationships with others, or strong feelings of disconnection and worthlessness. The resources we need to stay balanced, to grow, and to feel whole are within each of us, but sometimes we have trouble finding them on our own.

I am a Registered Psychologist with extensive training in psychotherapy. I work with people who have a broad range of concerns, but my specialization is in working with depression, anxiety/worries, and relationship issues. I use an approach that is grounded in compassion, patience, and care for my clients - because a positive, trusting relationship with your therapist is shown to be the most important factor in predicting a successful outcome to therapy. Everyone gets lost, or stuck sometimes. My job is to work with you to find another story, a different way to keep growing and learning.

I am the owner of Equinox Therapeutic. I most enjoy providing services to individuals who feel, in some way, "stuck" but feel that somehow, someway, life MUST have something better in store for them! Whether it's because of traumatic experiences that you still carry the weight of, or the sense that your current coping mechanisms are no longer functional for you, I can help you untangle the web of your past or present...allowing you ultimately to emerge with a true understanding of who you are, and a sense of empowerment and potential to be who you want to be. 2SLGBTQ+ affirming, and all expressions of queerness are welcome!

I am passionate about helping people work through difficulties that are keeping them stuck or unhappy in their lives and causing emotional or physical suffering. You may be experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship issues or chronic pain due to longstanding patterns of thoughts and behaviours or unprocessed emotions. I bring a unique perspective and skillset to my work having practiced as a lawyer for several years before changing paths to become a therapist. I know how difficult (and rewarding!) it can be to make tough decisions or changes in our lives, and I will support you in your own journey- whatever that might look like.

I use trauma-informed, culturally appropriate and evidence-based treatment modalities to help clients heal from trauma, cope more effectively with ongoing life stressors and develop new insights into their mental wellness.
