What do I really want? and--how am I going about NOT getting it?
These simple questions stand at the gateway of personal freedom.
Overwork, addiction, anxiety, depression tell us that we have turned away from life's important questions.
Therapy can help. More than just relieving symptoms, good therapy allows us--with time and courage--to see our problems as opportunities, and to discover what's really important--living life with a sense of freedom and possibility.

It is my pleasure to offer private services to individuals, couples, and families. Psychological therapy is a compassionate and insightful process to help achieve your goals, find greater contentment and optimize your relationships. Drawing from over 40 years of clinical experience, I individualize an approach to best suit your personal needs and circumstances. We then move forward from self-defeating choices, painful feelings and emotional impasses.

People tell me I'm open, caring and friendly. Maybe that's why I went into counselling! I'm very comfortable discussing what may be difficult topics for you, and finding ways to make your relationships better. Specialities include marriage counselling, career counselling, depression and anxiety, sexuality therapy, addictions and body image work. I am non-judgmental about diversity, and committed to helping you learn to make your life more satisfying. I have two graduate degrees, having studied both Communications and Counselling, and many years of helping people to reach their goals. I am also a Registered Psychotherapist in the Province of Ontario.

Everyone experiences life differently, but we can make sense of it together. I provide a space in which you can talk through the challenges of life in the context of an empathic, caring and safe relationship. I approach my work as a therapist with relational and empathic listening, nonjudgmental exploration, interactive engagement, respectful challenge, and mutual participation in the therapeutic process. My work is informed by a holistic approach to respect the relational, interconnected nature of human experience. Together we will explore the emotional, cognitive, physical, sociocultural & spiritual factors that impact your life.

If you choose to work with me I will strive to create a safe, respectful and meaningful relationship with you. I will listen carefully, with empathy and without judgement. Sometimes I ask a lot of questions in order to understand, to the best of my ability, what things are like for you. In working together to help me understand your story, usually what happens is that things start to make more sense for you too. Confusion often gives way to clarity. Feelings such as anxiety, anger, depression and isolation often subside as well.

Greetings! I consider it both an honour and a privilege to be held in a position of trust and to listen and respond to my clients’ unique, rich life stories. Since 2014, I have accumulated extensive clinical experience using cognitive-behavioural therapy and relational, person-centred interventions to treat adults with various psychological, emotional, and spiritual challenges. Irrespective of my therapeutic approach and the presenting issue, I place the highest priority on creating a warm and empathic, safe, non-judgemental space where my clients and I can collaborate to come up with workable short- and long-term solutions.

Psychoanalytic (or psychodynamic) therapy can help us to become more aware of our thinking patterns and behaviours so we can better understand the obstacles that may be standing in our way. With time, we can gain new perspectives and develop the capacity to deal with life's twists and turns, and meet our needs over the long-term.

I am intrigued by the way that humans are wired to connect with others. In my practice, I strive to build a meaningful connection between us in a gentle and caring way. Similarly, I aim to assist you in building authentic connections with important people in your life. I will help you to explore your strengths and resilience while assisting with the goals that brought you to therapy. I value diversity and the strength that it brings to the development of authentic relationships. I operate from a trauma-informed and anti-oppressive framework that is LGBTQ2IA+ affirming.

Therapy is not so much as "what do you need from me", but rather, "what do you need from you?" Who would you like to be for yourself? My humanistic background compels me to believe that clients often carry potential for growth that may be nurtured by the therapeutic relationship. While the specifics of clients' issues may vary, ultimately, many of us wish to be heard and understood. Although therapy may be directive at times, I often allow clients to lead and exercise their capacity for change.
