It can be really hard to prioritize yourself, especially if you are a parent or caregiver. Caregivers need care, too, but many things can get in the way of this: lack of supports (systemic and personal), an individualistic culture, guilt and shame, lack of modelling (i.e. "how do I even do that?"), unresolved trauma & attachment issues, burnout & time poverty. I use traditional talk therapy and Sensorimotor (body-focused) Psychotherapy, Art Therapy & EMDR to help you slow down and attend to yourself. I believe that a joyful, creative life where you honour your own needs and deeply care for others at the same time is possible.

I am currently running a wait list... My ideal client doesn't exist because EVERYONE deserves competent, compassionate, culturally appropriate, accessible mental health care. You are my ideal candidate because you are human. I want to spend our time together helping you creating the space to share your story in your voice. We can talk about death, love, depression, anxiety, suicide, and gender. Or anything else that’s causing you to feel stuck. I particularly love working with 2SLGBTQIA+ adults, couples, and others who face marginalization in their day to day lives. I value collaboration, commitment, humour, joy and love.

You may be feeling overwhelmed, tired, or like you're stuck in a battle with parts of yourself. The symptoms your experiencing, are actually your psyche's way of communicating that something inside you needs your care & attention, for you to heal & nurture hidden wounds, and become authentically whole again. Listening with subtle attunement, genuine compassion, & curiosity, gently uncovers core wounds, & what you need to heal them. Being with, & moving through the pain uncovers the relief & ease that you're seeking, but, depression, anxiety, & trauma can be confusing, scary, & hard to face alone.

Trans? Autistic? Fat? Queer? Come on in and join the party. If you've found us, it's probably because you (or your relationship or your family) are a little different. Maybe you have a specific set of unique personalities in your family. Maybe you want a practice that is overtly queer-friendly. Maybe you've got a new diagnosis of ADHD or autism on your hands. Maybe you have a bunch of labels but what you really want to talk about is being lonely. Your problems don't fit in a neat little category, and you don't have a nice little summary of who you are, where you came from, and what is ailing you.

Hello! I see you’re scrolling through therapists and you’ve paused long enough to read my little blurb. I’m so glad you’re here! If you are struggling with your sexuality or your relationships we can work through it together. Do you have concerns about your sexual desire: Too much? Too little? Too different? Are you grappling with your sexuality, coming out, or dealing with shame and stigma? Maybe things were great but something’s changed (what hasn’t these days?) and you need some help there. Your relationship could also be entering a new stage and you need some help navigating all those new challenges.

Since 2012 I have worked in private practice and inpatient in both mental health and brain injury assessment and rehabilitation. My ideal client is someone who either has personally experienced a TBI (traumatic brain injury), stroke, or other form of brain injury, or loves someone who does. They want to understand more about brain injury recovery, and strategies and tools to help themselves or their loved one. My ideal clients are ready for a collaborative, practical, and evidence-based approach to living well with brain injury. If they need formal assessment or re-assessment of their cognitive issues, we can also provide that.

Do you want to feel more connected to your partner? Do small arguments turn into big blowouts? Do you need to rebuild trust so you can move forward? Passionate, fulfilling, and once-thriving relationships get "stuck" sometimes and partners shut down, become defensive, or passive-aggressive. Many of us lacked examples of healthy relationships in our childhood and this is reflected in our current relationships. But relationships can become “unstuck” when partners gain a deeper understanding of one another and learn healthy communication to reduce conflict.

My ideal client (Adult, Single, Relationships) is totally focused on understanding themselves as a wholly formed authentic person. You may be ready to heal from your past traumas and to evolve into the person you were always meant to be. I assist you to understand your boundaries and learn how to practice them in relationships. You want to understand the Drama Triangles and your own role in in it. I call this learning how to practice authenticity, which is about becoming the most authentic version of yourself. I can help you with that.

Living with PTSD is getting in the way of living the life you want. You long for the painful memories, flashbacks, triggering events, and sleepless nights to stop. You want to recover from trauma, and you can with me, a certified PTSD psychologist, in your corner. The guilt, blame, resentment, and fear-induced anxiety you feel wreaks havoc on your relationships. Sometimes, your intense feelings and reactions seem to come out of nowhere, making you wonder if you’re “crazy.” But I assure you, you’re not. You’re experiencing symptoms resulting from past trauma. I can help you not only manage them but also overcome them - for good.

I work predominantly with folks who are racialized, 2SLGBTIQ, neurodivergent, and/or disabled. Often, those I work with have been diagnosed with borderline personality disorder; experience identity-based trauma; struggle with relationships, emotional regulation, or impulsivity; want greater self-awareness or understanding; want to feel a sense of belonging, connection, and safety; or generally, want more joy in their lives.

I primarily use IFS (internal family systems), EMDR (eye-movement desensitization and reprocessing), and somatic therapies to help clients heal from and cope more effectively with difficulties having to do with mood disorders, eating disorders, ADHD, addiction, sexual abuse, complex trauma (i.e. repeated painful experiences of betrayal, abandonment, or boundary violations); grief, disrupted attachment in early childhood, as well as experiences of discrimination, exclusion, or shaming on the basis of sexuality, sexual orientation, cultural identity, or anything else that unjustly marks an individual as inferior.

Sometimes life can feel very difficult and we are not quite sure why. Often times we are not how to make sense of our lives in a meaningful way and that can stop us from being who we truly are. Or maybe you have been through difficult times in your life that you are not quite sure how to overcome. These difficult experiences can get in the way of maintaining meaningful relationships, building trust or feeling at peace. Processing these events can take place at any age and can look different for each individual. The important part is that you feel genuinely seen and heard.

Connection is a deep bond in which you develop awareness between yourself and the external world. Through this awareness, your identity as well as the ability to comprehend and communicate with others evolves. As you continue to develop and make more meaningful connections, the more grounded you may feel, in who you are and how you interact with the world. However, there are many of you that have experienced unhealthy or toxic connections with yourself or others. As a result, you may feel like disconnecting and withdrawing is the safest decision to make.

Is online therapy a good option?
Therapy conducted online or over the phone 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 postcode.
What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counselor?
Therapists, psychologists, and counselors are all licensed mental health professionals. In Canada, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counselor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counselors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.
What type of therapist is right for me?
Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist, psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counselor who can offer short-term, targeted support.
Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?
The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors. Many have been licensed by the country or state where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counseling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.
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.
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.
How much does therapy cost?
Some forms of mental health treatment (for example, seeing a psychiatrist, or seeing a psychologist in a government-funded hospital) are free under provincial health plans. Canadians who seek private counseling can typically expect to pay an average of $150 per session, although the actual price generally ranges between $100 and $300 per session, depending on their location and the type of provider they select. Workplace benefits or private insurance plans often provide an annual counselling allowance, and some therapists offer sliding scale fees to clients who cannot pay full price.
