Hi there! Finding the right therapist for you is one of the strongest predictors of success in therapy, but the search can be incredibly overwhelming. The fact that you are here means you have already taken the first (and often difficult) step in getting connected with the support you deserve. Whether you are struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship issues, grief, or are just feeling lost, you are not alone. Therapy helps you to navigate your emotions, make sense of difficult experiences, develop strategies to cope with stress and worry, and find a greater sense of purpose in life.

I am passionate about the therapeutic process and privileged when a client allows me to join them in theirs. My approach balances the art and science of therapy by using evidence-based treatments and tailoring them to be most effective for you.

Hi! I love to support individuals, couples, and families with neurodivergence, identity and gender exploration, and general mental health concerns. I have a particular interest in supporting couples and families where one or more members are neurodivergent and/or Queer. My approach is direct, relaxed, and I attempt to integrate humour into my practice. I hope to provide a welcoming environment where people can show up as their authentic selves and learn to navigate relationships and the world around them using their inherent strengths.

My goal is to help every client thrive emotionally, psychologically, and intellectually.

I pay close attention to what is said, in addition to what is left unsaid, to uncover patterns of core beliefs.

I have specialized training and interest in working with individuals who struggle to manage emotions, whether that be that emotions feel particularly overwhelming and out of control, or whether you are more commonly feeling numb or disconnected. I work with teenagers and adults. You have been doing the best you can. Indeed, many of the ways that society tells us to manage difficult thoughts and feelings take a lot of work but actually lead us to be more and more stuck in our problems as time goes on.

Are you struggling and feel like you have nobody you can turn to? There are many things that can make us feel isolated or afraid to seek help. Shame, trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, feeling burdened by pressures and expectations. These can be overwhelming, confusing, and scary experiences. There is no easy way to unravel the complexities of the pain we feel or the pressures we face in our lives. But I want to be there to help you figure things out.

Are you reflecting on your life and wondering, “What now?” Are you feeling stuck or experiencing a life transition that is challenging to adapt to? We all have goals that matter to us, and many factors influence our ability to achieve them. Engaging in meaningful activities positively affects our health. So, I'm here to help you get back on track by offering mental health occupational therapy. What does that mean? A goal-oriented form of therapy that enables you to spend time on things that matter, like social relationships (dating, romantic, family, friends/colleagues), leisure pursuits, employment, schooling, self-care, and more.

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.
