I am open to working with any person who thinks they could benefit from therapy. My practice largely focuses on supporting people who want to learn about and/or manage symptoms related to depression, anxiety or those with traumatic life experiences. This can look like improving mood, managing negative thinking, learning about boundaries as well as addressing repetitious or intrusive traumatic memories. Along with general members of the community, I have also worked with medical professionals, first responders and members of the military who are seeking out therapeutic support while at work or on a leave.

Welcome! I am a Registered Social Worker with over 16 years of experience. My areas of expertise include anxiety, depression, grief, postpartum depression and trauma. Life can be challenging, perhaps you have noticed you are experiencing lower moods, or find yourself worrying too much. You may have faced a transition in life that has been hard on you. I believe our well being is related to having the ability to face whatever situations we may be up against. However, sometimes we need support to make this happen in our lives.

Too often, we suffer alone with stress, anxiety, strained relationships, compulsive behaviour, depression, loneliness and a host of other issues. While it can be so easy to feel isolated with these problems, talking to an objective, trained, support person can build hope and create a path towards improvement. I integrate therapeutic modalities in my work; I prioritize a strong client-therapist relationship, focus on client goals and offer a variety of practical resources, tools and techniques.

Do you feel that you are living for others? Are you emotionally and physically burnt out from being a caregiver? Caregiver stress can result in depression, anger, anxiety, grief, isolation and can even manifest in physical illness. Caring for your own emotional and physical well-being is just as important as supporting your loved ones. I can help to relieve your mental burden so that you can continue supporting others.

My work as a clinical psychologist has given me the opportunity to meet some amazing, courageous people. It's very hard to acknowledge that we may need to face and address painful issues in order to move forward in our lives. I work with adults (18+) who are interested in dealing with challenges ranging from anxiety and depression to Post Traumatic Stress disorder and addictions. My chief joy as a psychologist is to collaborate with my patients and assist them to make real and lasting changes in how they live their lives. Life is not easy, but feeling strong and whole helps us deal with the demands we may encounter.

Making changes in life requires courage and dedication, especially when the changes force you to reinvent yourself in so many ways. You may be struggling with work, family, you may feel lost, you may be going through or feel like you need to make changes in your life and you don't know how and where to start from. Psychotherapy can help us to understand ourselves, develop more satisfying relationships, and live the life we long to lead.

As a therapist, I recognize that challenges and issues have to be engaged within a container of safety, created by compassionate therapeutic relationships. I am a firm believer that healing happens in the presence of such a connection. I aim to bring a necessary balance that is gentle yet challenging. I integrate a biopsychosocial and holistic approach that is trauma-informed and nonjudgmental to respond to a diverse range of situations. These include, but are not limited to, depression, anxiety, relationship difficulties, addiction, trauma, and loss.

We each have a story, what’s yours? I would be honored to hold space with you, to hear that story. All too often this is too hard for us to do on our own.

Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?
Most Counsellors and Psychotherapists listed in the directory are certified by one of the main professional associations, mainly the Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Association (CCPA), and will have a Certified Canadian Counsellor (CCC) designation with their name. Social Workers listed in the directory must be registered members of the college specific to their province. To be listed in the directory, Psychologists must be registered with the psychological college specific to their province or territory.
Providers whose professional membership or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Given the considerable variation in professional regulation and prerequisites across Canadian provinces, some providers may possess significant professional qualifications without necessarily holding professional memberships or being obliged to acquire them. As a result, they may be selectively included without the "Verified" seal.

What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counsellor?
Psychologists, counsellors, psychotherapists and social workers can all provide counselling or talking therapy and have credentials and supervised, practical experience that enable them to do so in Canada.
Psychologists have a master's and/or doctoral degree and have passed both written and oral exams. Psychologists are able to complete mental health assessments and provide diagnostic information to clients as well as provide counselling therapy or psychotherapy. Counsellors and psychotherapists are expected to have a master's or doctoral degree in counselling psychology, social work, or a related mental health discipline and certification by a professional association, such as the Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Association. Registered Social Workers possess a Bachelor's or Master's degree in Social Work and where possible must be licensed or certified by the provincial government and/or regulatory college.

What type of therapy is right for me?
The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.
How much does therapy cost?
The cost of therapy depends on a number of variables, including location and the therapist’s experience and training. On average, the cost of a therapy session in Canada could be between $100 and $200. If you have insurance, the expense of mental health care is typically lower, but it varies based on your insurance plan details and whether you choose an in-network or out-of-network mental healthcare provider.
What are more affordable or low cost therapy solutions?
Many therapists offer sliding scale payments, usually on a limited number of slots, which consists in an agreement between the therapist and a client to pay a reduced rate. Therapists who provide such arrangements often consider the client's income or ability to pay, but the extent of the discount is ultimately at the therapist's discretion. Furthermore, while group therapy may have different goals and benefits compared to individual therapy, it can be a more affordable solution to address certain types of issues.
If you are struggling to access therapy due to budget constraints, you could also consider public funded mental health services. Some types of outpatient mental health services are covered by Medicare, provided these are performed by a licensed mental health professional in the provinces or territory you reside in and who accepts the assignment.

Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?
Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
Is online therapy a good option?
Therapy conducted online can be just as effective as in-person therapy, as long as there is a strong alliance between the client and the therapist. To find a therapist who provides telehealth services to clients in your area, click “Online Therapy” on the directory homepage and search by your city or town or your postal code.
Are therapy sessions confidential?
Professionals licensed by regulatory colleges and those certified by associations such as the Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Association are obligated to uphold client confidentiality unless there is a legal reason that requires them to disclose information. Confidentiality is a crucial part of the therapeutic relationship and only under specific circumstances, such as when there is the potential or known harm to the client or others, or a court order, will a therapist be obligated to break the agreement. These exceptions to the confidentiality agreement are usually discussed during the initial consultation.
