I have been providing collaborative mental health and addiction services for youth, adolescents and adults in the Ottawa Region for the past 18 years. I work closely with individuals and families to identify the best treatment plans to meet their unique needs. Some techniques I use include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Collaborative Problem Solving, Mindfulness Integrated CBT, Trauma Practice and Addiction Issues. I use an assertive care approach which can provide some support between sessions, as needed, for clients to meet their goals with non-life-threatening mental health challenges. Many clients have found this very helpful.

Clients engaging in therapy with me can expect to feel valued. I listen to my clients’ successes and challenges and help clients capitalize on their strengths. I also treasure my clients’ background and culture. In the first session, I will listen to your stories and use current research and assessment tools to help with diagnosis. Collaboratively, we will set treatment goals and a treatment plan.

As a person and a counsellor, I believe that everyone, regardless of life circumstances, wants to feel connected and understood. Unfortunately, in today's fast-paced society, often times people do not feel heard or listened to, connected to others, and least of all understood. This being said, I believe that the relationship developed between myself and my client is the most crucial component of counselling. It is my hope that at the end of your sessions, you will develop positive coping strategies while healing unresolved feelings; but above all, that you leave feeling heard, understood and cared for.

I believe when we feel understood, validated, and supported…we heal. This is what psychotherapy is intended to do. My style is gentle and compassionate. I am an encourager by nature, so can help you identify & build on what you already do well. I am also sensitive by nature and there’s a good chance you are as well (it’s a genetic trait called "Highly Sensitive Person" that shows up in about 20% of the population & about 50% of therapy clients).

You're a woman in your 20's or 30's who needs a therapist who "gets" your ADHD brain. You've tried therapy before, but felt like you were just talking about your problems - you need somebody who will help you actually PROCESS what's going on, not just listen. You need somebody who can hold you accountable to making real change in your life, and call you on your shit. You've tried all the things - meditation, journaling, breathwork, medication, positive thinking, you've watched all the therapy tiktoks but you're still stuck. You have felt this way for a while and are not only ready, but are fully committed to making real change

Are you struggling with stress, anxiety, people-pleasing and emotion regulation? Do you feel like you’re not quite good enough, you can never actually reach your goals, or you just can’t seem to do “life” right? Maybe you experienced trauma from growing up in a household with emotionally immature parents. Maybe you have late-diagnosed (or undiagnosed) ADHD, and chronic feelings of being “defective” loom over you constantly.

You've been looking for a therapist who is genuine - who keeps it real. Someone who is nonjudgmental, has their own lived experiences, and isn't afraid to use humour in sessions. Having a good connection with your therapist is pretty important. In fact, choosing the right therapist may be the single most important factor in realizing change. When working with me, you can expect that I will truly listen to your story and honour your perspective; after all, what you have to say is the priority here. However, sometimes I will ask you questions for better clarity and understanding, because it’s important that I truly understand you.

You really care, and whenever you can, you do your best. BUT, you're sick and tired of being sick and tired.. You are STUCK, feeling overwhelmed, unsettled, and better connected to the suffering lately, than the EASE you wish you could just feel. Life is tricky right now, and the past hasn't been easy, either. You wonder - maybe it's stupid to hold out hope for change? You don't want to feel this way, but nothing you've tried so far has helped. You just don't know what you need to feel better, and you're starting to wonder if there is really anything better out there for you on the horizon, or, if this is... just as good as it gets?

Are you struggling with the demands of everyday life? Many of us strive to keep up and stay on top of things, so much so that we often forget about ourselves in the process. I provide a safe, non-judgmental and empathic environment for adults experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, interpersonal conflict, chronic illness, workplace stress, caregiver stress, and issues with self-esteem. I work collaboratively with clients to help them find the most effective, long-term solutions to their challenges. My goal is to help build resiliency by exploring the challenges we are faced with - no matter what the situation may be.

I know finding the “right” therapist can feel hard. Research shows that our working relationship is a highly important part of therapy, so I focus on creating a space where you feel comfortable and heard. I love incorporating humour (when appropriate) and checking in to make sure our sessions are on the right track. I believe our past can affect us now, and noticing patterns and taking time to understand ourselves can help us be more present, comfortable, and kind with ourselves. I'll listen to you without judgement and support you in pursuing what matters most to you.

Are you looking to make change in your life? I use cognitive behavioural therapy, which is based on years of research and empirical evidence, to help people get to the roots of their problems and make lasting change. For some clients, I integrate mindfulness training into my approach. This involves developing self-compassion, accepting what we cannot control and living in the present moment. I strongly believe in a collaborative approach to therapy, and take a very active role in guiding my clients.

Regardless of what you may be going through, I am committed to providing a safe, empathetic, and non-judgmental space for you to share your story with me and collaboratively work together towards feeling better. I am so glad that you are here.

As your therapist, I want you to feel comfortable coming to sessions as you are. Every part of you is accepted here, even the parts that are in pain, the parts that are sad, and the parts you haven't spoken to in a while. All of you is welcome. This space is yours to come as your authentic self, while we work towards crafting the changes in your life that you want to see. My role is to offer you complete acceptance during this process. When I say there is no part of you that is "too much", I mean it with sincerity.
