Therapists in Stittsville, ON
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.

Waitlist for new clients
The stress of daily responsibilities, relationships, work, and emotions can feel like too much. Maybe you're at the start of a new job or a new city is feeling overwhelming. Perhaps you’re coming out of a relationship or just getting into one and feeling nervous. Maybe you’re tired of putting the needs of others ahead of your own. Have you been asking “Who am I” or “Where do I go from here”? Perhaps it’s a little bit of everything, all at once.

For a therapeutic relationship to thrive, it is built on creating a trusting, honest and collaborative atmosphere.
I completed my Honours Bachelor of Arts degree in Therapeutic Recreation through Brock University, where I supported individuals with ABI/TBI, ASD, Down Syndrome, ID and DD in establishing life skills, community involvement, social skills and identity development for the last decade. During the pandemic’s beginning, I realized the lack of mental health resources for special populations and quickly started my academic pursuits for my Masters. I work with people of all ages and abilities, being no stranger to adapting and specializing approaches to work with individuals’ unique strengths.

I have experience working with anxiety, depression, self-confidence issues, school and work stress, relationship issues, family issues and parenting, neurodiversity, and change.
Life transitions can be challenging and overwhelming to navigate on our own. Whether you are starting at a new school or job, ending a relationship, surviving a loss, or experiencing a major life event such as becoming a parent or working with a new diagnosis, transitions can be hard. Life transitions can cause a range of emotions – we can feel intensely vulnerable, anxious, excited, stressed, and fearful. Sometimes we feel stuck and alone. If you are struggling with a life transition and need support, I am here to help provide a safe, compassionate space for you.

Relationship Issues Counsellors
While need for human connection appears to be innate, the ability to form healthy, loving relationships is learned. Some evidence suggests that the ability to form a stable relationship starts to form in infancy, in a child's earliest experiences with a caregiver who reliably meets the infant's needs for food, care, warmth, protection, stimulation, and social contact. Such relationships are not destiny, but they are theorized to establish deeply ingrained patterns of relating to others. The end of a relationship, however, is often a source of great psychological anguish.
