Trauma Focused Therapists in Dundas, ON
I have additional training in working with people who have experienced trauma, including training in Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioural Therapy.
Welcome! I work with folks from young children in play therapy to teen counselling to parent coaching. What works for one child or family won't work for the next and that's why I focus on thorough assessments and working with my clients to set up a therapeutic approach that works for them. I specialize in working with neurodiverse kids, addressing symptoms like anxiety, depression, school refusal, OCD, self harm and suicidal ideation. If you are concerned for your child's mental health or are just looking to help them develop strong tools and supports then I am here to help!

Conflicts in relationships are inevitable! It’s how we adapt & overcome them that makes the difference. These conflicts can be circumstantial or rooted in anxieties from the past and may not look like your typical conflict. Perhaps you find yourself experiencing the same anxious thoughts or maybe you're stuck in the same negative patterns that you can't seem to break as a couple. Interpersonal and internal conflict can leave us feeling stuck, confused, stressed, overwhelmed, or depressed. Most importantly, recognizing that fear is an emotion we all experience and discovering how fear operates for you is okay to explore.

You are an individual. There is no one else quite like you. Your therapy should be as unique as you are. We are all the products of our past, from experiences that happened so long ago that they escape memory to what happened just as we opened the door to the present moment. Through it all, we learn the skills that protect us on this journey through the interpersonal world. We sometimes struggle to be our authentic selves because there is no SELF without the context of the OTHER. Each of us is a single being trying to be seen as we see ourselves in a never ending sea of often confusing but always important social interaction.

I believe in treatment from the biopsychosocial perspective. From the biological perspective - pain management, nutrition, exercise, sleep; the psychological perspective - education, stress management, emotional regulation; and the social aspect - relationships, conflict resolution, and more. I provide an open and non-judgmental space where we can explore your life, thoughts, behaviour, emotions and relationships, and together work towards reducing unwanted thoughts and feelings. I also encourage nature therapy, where you reconnect with nature and improve your sense of peace.

I’m here for the parents who aren't ready to give up hope, and for the teens and young adults who are clinging to life. Whether because of trauma, of neurodivergence (ADHD/ADD) or the need for a more gender-affirming world, life has been rocky. It’s been difficult to connect, sleep has been elusive, panic has been setting in and the future seems sort of bleak. At least that’s how it’s been, at least for right now. So you're looking for a therapist who gets it: your gender identity, your life experience and your inner knowing matter.

My clients are usually people in life transition, they feel overwhelmed and want to discuss their issues and get some clarity and help with decision making and coping strategies.

I can help them to maximize their health during stressful times and focus on goals and direction in the present and future. Personal and family situations, relationships, health and medication management, work and school and grief and isolation. With some support and professional guidance many situations that feel overwhelming and hopeless can be opportunities.

Are you an adult child of an emotionally immature parent? Were you a parentified child, who took on more adult responsibilities or were a confidant to your parents? Are you struggling with your parent-child relationship now that you are grown, and perhaps these issues have been exacerbated by you becoming a parent yourself. Navigating this path of self-awareness can be tricky and filled with complicated grief, resentment, and strain. However, together we can unpack the impacts of your childhood and your relationship with your family today, to help bring peace and contentment through understanding, acceptance and healthy boundaries.
