Therapists in Cambridge, ON

Life is constantly changing and bringing new opportunities and challenges. Sometimes we can feel stuck, hopeless, and unsure of how to navigate change. I believe that authenticity and being true to our values is the way to having a meaningful life. I work with adults experiencing anger, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship difficulties, self-esteem, self-harm, stress, insomnia, and trauma. I also have experience working with individuals who have concerns about their substance use and their loved ones. My hope is that our work together will help you find a new way to relate to yourself, others, and life in general.

As my client/s you are an individual, couple, or family who want(s) to work collaboratively towards broadly defined health and wellness goals (such as emotional and interpersonal wellness) aimed at supporting a sustained improved quality of life in all aspects. Your goals may be short-term, crisis-generated (with an eye toward resolution), or aimed at sustained long-term improvements in relationships, self-regard, life management, cessation of self-destructive behaviours or self-destructive self-talk. My ideal client is simply someone who wants to improve the quality of their life in a way that is meaningful to them.

**Accepting New Clients!** Many of our clients come to therapy because they are struggling with low mood, distressing thoughts and anxiety, major life changes and transitions, prenatal and postpartum challenges, or feeling isolated and alone. Perhaps you are experiencing some or all of these challenges and are looking to feel better. Therapy can bring a different perspective to the difficulties you are experiencing, provide you with the direction and confidence to achieve your goals or successfully transition into new parts of your life, live in accordance to your values, and feel better.

Mood regulation, stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, relationships, grief, life transitions are all things that weigh on us. As a private clinician, I make it my goal to help my clients find their inner strength to overcome those challenges that life throws at them and offer them hope in living their life the way they see fit. Adopting approaches such as CBT, DBT, ACT, IFS and the Gottman Method I hope to assist clients in breaking down barriers and delve into the challenges that are preventing them from moving forward.

EVENING/WEEKEND availability. Sometimes our thoughts feel overwhelming and out of our control. This can cause issues in our relationships, self-esteem and overall wellbeing.

You'll find our sessions to be a trustworthy, supportive environment, where you can get the guidance you're looking for and feel comfortable to do the deeper reflection needed to make meaningful change. Together, we can explore what's troubling you, develop new perspectives and help you cope better.

I work with women in overcoming their struggles that have to do with relationship issues, self-esteem, substance use, stress, depression, anxiety, and addiction. I am here to support you by providing a warm and safe virtual space where we can talk about your struggles.

Let me be your guide to the life you hope to for. Psychology and psychotherapy have captivated me for years, driving my dedication to the mental health field since 2011. Whether through in-person sessions or online, I tailor to meet the specific needs of each person I work with. I specialize in Couples Therapy and am certified in Emotion-Focused Couples Therapy. I also support individuals facing various difficulties, including phobias, social anxiety, panic attacks, health-related anxieties, major and persistent depression, bipolar disorder, psychosis, OCD, trauma, PTSD, ADHD, anger, weight loss, suicidal ideation, and spirituality.

Is your mental health getting in the way of the things you want to do? Do you often wonder WHY you get triggered, or how early attachments might effect your daily life as an adult? I take a person-centered approach, allowing the client to take the lead and actively work towards positive change. I am passionate about working with those who struggle with personality disorders, difficulties with self-worth, trauma, and depression/anxiety. I believe that a compassionate listener can be a catalyst to needed change.

Being a teenager is tough. With pressures from school, parents, peers, and social media, it can feel like everyone is judging you. You might think, “I’m not smart enough,” “I’m not attractive enough,” or “Something is wrong with me!” If you feel overwhelmed by expectations and wish you didn’t care what others thought, you’re not alone. We’ve all been there and felt the same way. I help teens like you let go of these expectations and discover who they truly are and who they want to be. If you’re ready to stop trying to be liked by everyone else and start liking yourself so you can be yourself, you’re in the right place!

Navigating the stress, uncertainty and overwhelming emotions that everyday life can bring is not easy. This is why I specialize in working with teens and adults who face challenges including low self-esteem, anxiety, and ADHD. Together we will explore imaginative ways to better express and understand your core self, develop better coping strategies, find tools for emotional regulation and build lasting resilience. I use techniques from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Dialectical Behavioural Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, Narrative Therapy, and Mindfulness.

As a passionate and dedicated psychotherapist specialized in working with individuals, families, children and teen, my journey in the field of mental health has been driven by the commitment to nurturing young minds and supporting them through their unique developmental challenges. My fascination with psychology began during my own adolescence when I faced personal challenges that really impacted my well-being. Through my struggles, I recognized the importance of having a supportive and understanding environment during this crucial stage of life.
