Therapists in Toronto, ON

If you’re reading this, I believe there is a part of you that yearns for some positive change in your life. I also believe that I can help you get there; together. ​I have over 12 years of experience in community mental health through which I’ve encountered folks from all walks of life and I’m certain of one thing: we all want to feel heard and be seen. ​Our respective journeys can be full of all kinds of experiences which can often include trauma, stress, grief, anxiety, feelings of depression and cause us to question how to move forward.

I specialize in working with anxiety, depression, stress/burnout, confidence issues, life transitions, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, 2SLGBTQ+ concerns, and take a special focus in working alongside neurodivergent individuals and borderline personality disorder. I work from the position and understanding that life can be painful but we do not need to suffer. I view adversity as existing on a continuum, where pain is an unavoidable part of the human experience within the context of a persons life. Where healing takes time, and patience but it is worth the struggle, and effort to make the journey there for ourselves.

Seeking help and finding the right therapist can be overwhelming especially if you are feeling out of balance, facing changes in relationships, managing symptoms of anxiety or depression, or if life has lost meaning for you. I work with clients to create strategies, develop tools, and uncover personal strengths that bring the healthy balance back into their lives. I bring a depth of experience from years of work in a tertiary mental health and addiction hospital in Toronto, Ontario. I am privileged to be a therapist. My clients describe me as "easy to connect, open, warm, genuine, real, and effective."

Perhaps you’re grieving a loss, having difficulties with anxious or overwhelming feelings? Or having some challenges in your relationships? Feeling angry or depressed? You may be frustrated with life, or you want to explore questions of identity or purpose.

 It might be a crisis, but it doesn’t have to be. I am a relational psychotherapist, who works with the arts. I have over 20 years of training and experience as an Registered Psychotherapist.

Hi there. The focus of my practice is helping adults who are facing difficult transitions or other mental health challenges by using talk therapy. My unique background in art therapy (M.A. from New York University) influences my creative approach. I specialize in working with adults of all ages experiencing stress, anxiety, depression, self-esteem, relationship issues, addictions, ADHD, grief, job dissatisfaction and more. We will use a variety of approaches to help you gain skills and insight into what's going on.

Being a human can be beautiful, but also hard- often sticky and overwhelming, full of stress, anxieties, transitions, uncertainties, loss and grief. Recognizing that it can be hard to ask for help if you're struggling, or if you just want to find more meaning and fulfillment- you do not have to do it alone. Whatever you are currently experiencing, we will work collaboratively to build up your resources and resilience, navigate relationships and establish positive coping skills while we unpack feelings, thoughts and patterns of behaviour that are no longer serving you.

Grieving? Life Transitions? Couples Issues? Anxiety ? Trauma ? These are fundamental core issues in being human. You can recover and renew your life. Reach out and talk about it. I offer a free one-hour consultation.

In therapy, we will look at who you are, what you want and what you need.
