Covered by benefits under Registered Psychotherapist

As a social worker/psychotherapist, I am known for my integrity, compassion, and warmth. I have 14 years of extensive clinical practice supporting individuals who have endured past and present traumatic and hurtful life experiences. I guide individuals out of painful emotions, thoughts, and somatic reactions by creatively combining therapies and techniques like EMDR, sensorimotor psychotherapy, brainspotting, deep brain reorienting, and other interventions that heal distressing cognitive, emotional, and behavioural patterns.

In life, there are moments when we feel stuck and unable to move forward, even when we are surrounded by the beauty of the world. Everyone deserves a safe space to explore vulnerabilities without judgment. As a therapist, I approach each session with warmth, empathy, compassion, and respect. Many people who experience feelings of sadness or anxiety try to avoid these emotions rather than expressing them, but I believe everyone has the capacity to grow and transform their behavior. My goal is to help clients recognize and build upon their strengths and resilience. Seeking guidance from a therapist is an important step towards healing

Welcome! For over fifteen years, I have supported individuals of all ages and families striving to make positive changes in their lives and deal with challenges, trauma, and various other experiences and stressors. I have extensive training and experience in various treatment models. I aim to provide clients with a therapeutic experience that is both meaningful to my clients and builds on and honours their current strengths and knowledge.

I am a Registered Psychotherapist who has worked with individuals in different capacities since 2011. Using my calm and gentle nature, I have built a practice based on professionalism, trust, openness and authenticity, where clients can feel safe and accepted without judgement. My approach to psychotherapy is tailored to the needs of my clients. I am dedicated to helping those in need of mental health care, and I always enjoy meeting new people. I have earned an honours Bachelor's degree in Psychology from Laurentian University, as well as a Master's degree in Counselling Psychology with Yorkville University.

Is there a part of you that feels anxious, overwhelmed, or stuck? Do you find yourself battling with a harsh inner critic? If so, you are not alone. An internal conflict within us can often leave us feeling drained and defeated. Many people approach these parts of themselves with judgment and criticism, not knowing that these parts have helped them survive. When trauma happens, we respond to the past rather than the present moment. My goal is to help you heal from the past and restore a sense of calm and clarity within yourself.

I believe in forming an authentic therapeutic relationship with respect to the client's cultural background. With a suitable therapeutic approach that tailors individual needs, one can face covert feelings with clarity. Therapy is a safe and non-judgmental space where individuals can unpack their deepest emotions and learn to process them effectively.

As a psychotherapist, my perspective on healing is that we all have within us what we are searching, but we need help in uncovering and recovering that innate knowledge. Let me help you learn to find that knowledge. I see adults individually or within a couple both in person and for online sessions. I provide an empathetic and safe space combined with real practical and tangible support and advice.

I have over 10 years of experience working with children, youth, and adults. When working with young children, I will incorporate play techniques to help them feel more comfortable and open during the counselling. I also work with parents and I love to work with adults individually as well. I enjoy partnering with my clients of any age, and I am passionate about assisting them as they navigate through challenging times in their lives. I work transparently with clients and practice with a non-judgmental approach.

Do you need someone to talk to? Are you overwhelmed? Have you been hurt by a person or institution and need help moving forward? I count it a privilege to listen with a non-judgmental heart and would be honoured to help you find relief and healing. Working from a Trauma-Informed Approach (TIA) can help clients gain a life-changing perspective on their past, present and hope for the future.

I am a registered social worker with over 15 years of work experience. I have helped people who experience issues such as: depression, anxiety, addiction, abuse, trauma, anger, LGBTQ-related issues, relationship issues, grief, and family conflict. My journey into social work began at age 14, when I lost my father to cancer. Because there were few supports available at the time, I felt alone and stuck. This prompted me to dedicate my life to assisting others during difficult times, and help them realize they are not alone.

Our most fundamental need is to be seen, heard and accepted as we are. It is no surprise that the strongest determining factor in successful therapy is the therapeutic alliance. Positive change happens when we become more like ourselves rather than trying to be something others want us to be. Our team of experienced psychotherapists are here to support individuals, couples and families with their journeys towards greater wholeness and authenticity. We work with the mind, emotions and nervous system to break unhealthy thinking patterns, unburden emotional pain and trauma, build healthy self-esteem, and find deeper meaning in life.

I am a Registered Psychotherapist with over twenty years’ experience in the mental health field treating anxiety, depression, childhood abuse, trauma, and PTSD. I have extensive experience working with people who have experienced trauma, poor attachment, and those recovering from abusive relationships. Having been trained by leading experts in the fields of trauma, neuroscience and mind-body healing, I can help you find relief from distressing symptoms, make positive behavioural changes, and get you back connected to your True Self.

I have over 15 years of clinical experience in adult and children's mental health. I provide assessments and treatment services for children, youth, adults, couples and families. I work with individuals experiencing difficulties with anxiety, depression, stress, relationship difficulties, trauma, bullying, marital difficulties, bereavement and other life challenges. In addition, I administer psychological assessments to better understand the behavioural, emotional and learning challenges your child or you as an adult may be experiencing.

I offer both a holistic and personalized approach meeting different individual needs. I understand and respect different aspects that may contribute to one’s mental health and life challenges.

I offer a safe, non-judgemental, client centered therapeutic space for individuals and couples. I believe that a journey towards healing requires empathy, encouragement and supportive facilitation as we often haven't had the opportunity to learn ways to cope with traumatic experiences and life related stressors. This can result in dysregulation and feelings of anxiety, depression and overwhelm in our day to day lives and relationships. Let's work together to explore and address your concerns in an open minded, anti-oppressive, trauma-informed, sex/body positive, LGBTQ+ inclusive space.
