Codependency Therapists in T2P

For the last 16 years, I have worked as a Social Worker with countless communities, including racialized communities, sexual violence survivors, homeless folx, women, youth and families, addictions, and MVA survivors. I currently work for the University of Toronto as a Student Mental Health and Wellness Program Manager, a role focused on supporting and developing student mental health initiatives. Armed with both experience and understanding, I work to build trust and carefully tailored care for the communities I support; primarily specializing in trauma, mood, anxiety, and adjustment concerns.

Seeking therapy can be scary, daunting, and even promote anxiety in itself! Facing our unknown or dark corners is hard, however, together I believe we can ease the journey. I offer a warm, nonjudgemental space, a compassionate and understanding ear, where together we can open possibilities to a more meaningful life. Whether it's personal growth including developmental/transitional stages, anxiety, depression, trauma, or relationship issues, together we can find and bring about meaningful change.

Almost everyone has been impacted by addictions in some form. We specialize in the treatment of addictions and their underlying causes. We offer a half day Intensive Out Patient Treatment Program for substance abuse as well as individual counselling to help establish sustainable sobriety. In addition, we follow treatment protocols for Sex Addiction established by the International Institute for Trauma and Addiction Professionals.

It is hard to reach out for support or to even consider reaching out when you are struggling. Perhaps you are experiencing a sense of grief, loss, or burnout leaving you feeling stuck and unsure about what the future holds? Perhaps you are feeling adrift and need someone to talk to as you figure out what to do next? Sometimes we find our past experiences interfere with the present and all of us face challenges that require extra support. Counselling can help you gain a better understanding of yourself, your relationships, and the changes you wish to implement to achieve further growth.

Are you ready for a new chapter in your life? Let’s take the steps together. Whether you are experiencing overwhelming stress, feelings of anxiety or depression, grief and loss, or dealing with past or present trauma, we can all find ourselves feeling pushed to our limit, paralyzed with uncertainty, or simply lost. Whatever you are experiencing in your life right now, I am confident that there is hope and a way forward.

We are an online counselling agency so do not provide services in person. Strength Counselling Services has licensed, experienced therapists who use evidence-based practices, prioritize client needs, and maintain ethical standards. We offer culturally sensitive, affordable services in a supportive environment. We offer a comprehensive goals assessment, regularly assess progress, and collaborate with other professionals. We provide transparency in our fees and for thirteen years now have held a positive reputation of trust, and client success. Lastly, ensuring our clients' privacy and confidentiality are of utmost importance to us.

Life can be messy on the inside, even when it looks great from the outside. Often we can feel numb or overwhelmed inside. Alone. Are you seeking to gain insight and clarity around your habits, patterns or relationships? Do you feel your relationships are supporting you or keeping you stuck? How does your life feel to you: vital and juicy or stale and stagnant? How do you want your life to feel? And who were you meant to become? Perhaps you are navigating a significant life transition - exploring who you are and what's next. Often, counting ourselves in is the first step.

We all move through challenges in life, and we deserve a space to learn and discover healthier ways of coping and living. Therapy is about creating new strengths, as well as helping you rediscover the ones that already exist within you. My ideal client is looking for a therapist to help them regain wellness and stability by exploring and changing unhelpful behaviors, patterns, beliefs, and relationships. I am here to welcome you exactly as you are, as this will be the starting point for the change we create together!

Many of the clients that I see are looking for personal growth, self-discovery and healing. Common topics that bring my clients to therapy include managing; grief, stress, trauma, anxiety and relationship challenges such as boundaries, separation and betrayal. They are often looking to feel more ease and wholeness in their lives. Some goals include to be more and present within themselves, their relationships and enjoy a more fulfilling life.

I am currently accepting new clients. I'm also excited to share that I offer virtual appointments across Canada, and in-person appointments in Calgary, AB. I provide gender affirming and neurodivergent affirming counselling services. I especially want help individuals get to know themselves better. I strive to create a safe and judgement-free space to explore thoughts, feelings, and experiences and to create a space for you to express yourself freely. I see you and I as collaborators on your journey to wellbeing. My empathy and openness allow me to see the unique person you are no matter why you decide to visit me.

I aim to help clients identify the underlying patterns and behaviours holding them back. My passion is to help clients work past these blockers, build tools to emotionally regulate, improve communication, and build healthy coping mechanisms that allow them to live the life they aspire for themselves.

Are you stuck despite having a hunch about why you may feel, think, or act the way you do? What if I told you that it is possible to get to the core of your current difficulties and it is easier than you think? Anxiety, self-doubt, self-criticism, shame, procrastination, emotional avoidance, etc. may not be the real issue but rather a symptom of the issue. In my experience, these emotional states or stress-driven behaviours are simply masking what the real concern is. Focusing on that alone is giving you an incomplete picture of what is really going, which is why you haven’t been able to take steps forward yet.

Are you looking to create lasting change to live the life you want? I value the wants and needs of my clients. I have strategies and skills for working with many different issues.

I work primarily with women who are always striving, spinning the hamster wheel for everyone but themselves, struggling with filling their own tank and in turn feeling disconnected, flat and uninspired. This shows up in so many ways; you could be struggling to stay focused, worrying about something that hasn’t happened yet, having seemingly random fits of tears or anger, and beating yourself up for not ‘doing more’. You find yourself day dreaming often and feeling disconnected from yourself. You know that you’re on edge constantly but aren’t sure why, and tell yourself you don’t have time or energy to go there.
