Therapists in Toronto, ON

I have experience working with, and for, individuals and their families across the lifespan, navigating non-suicidal self-injury and self-harm, personality disorder, emotion regulation difficulties, eating disorders/disorder eating, body image, and trauma. I also work with athletes and performers to address the mental health concerns that exist for these individuals within their larger systems on and off the field/court/stage.

Welcome! I offer individual and couples talk therapy to adults, bringing warmth, empathy and patience into each interaction. My aim is to make therapy a safe, comfortable and non-judgmental space where the healing process can take place. I practice through a strengths-based lens, tailoring my approach to fit each individual's diverse background. I integrate various evidence-based treatments to support my patients in developing better self-awareness, feeling “unstuck” and learning new skills (e.g. cognitive behavioural therapy, emotional focused therapy, attachment theory and mindfulness techniques).

My therapeutic approach is rooted in empathy and sensitivity, valuing the cultural origins of each individual. I believe in a holistic and integrative approach to psychotherapy that encompasses all aspects of a person's being. Understanding one's functioning and how to navigate change with serenity is an essential aspect of my approach. By combining neuropsychological and psychological perspectives, I have developed a comprehensive framework that addresses the interconnectedness of mind and brain. In my practice, I am committed to embracing diversity and promoting the dignity of each individual.

I help adults in their 20s-30s who want to feel happy again but are feeling stuck, lost, numb, or overwhelmed with life. My clients tell me that the pressure to choose the right degree, career, friends, or partner leads them to spiral into depression, anxiety, and other difficult feelings. They feel alone and misunderstood. They want to smile and feel like themself again, but don’t know how.

How do you find hope? You're an incredibly self-aware and open individual, constantly striving to be your best self. However, it's clear that self-doubt and self-criticism can be challenging obstacles for you at times. You might feel overwhelmed, despite your best efforts, weighed down by negative thoughts, recurring patterns, and past wounds. You've been trying to make changes, but it seems like you're at a standstill, unsure of how to move forward.

It’s been said that showing up for ourselves is the hardest, most important work we’ll ever do. Whether you find yourself grieving a significant loss, processing a difficult life change, or simply wanting to explore a different way of relating to yourself and the people around you, I know that it takes courage to be here. I see therapy as a sort of pilgrimage to our authentic, whole selves, sometimes in the face of darkness and grief. Journeying through what feels difficult in our lives is part of bringing our fullest and best into the world, and I would be honoured to accompany you in this journey.

Whether you have been in therapy at different points in your life or are considering therapy for the first time, we will work collaboratively for you to gain a better sense of overall well-being. Working together we can identify unhelpful patterns and learn more effective ways of coping as you may find yourself experiencing challenges in life including managing relationships, regulating difficult emotions, dealing with family conflict/issues, struggling with self worth, and adapting to change.

You get one chance at writing your life story. No pressure, right? The tricky thing is you did not have any input over how your story began, which characters appeared, or where it takes place. Perhaps you’re not a fan of the current plot line. Maybe you’re growing tired of the same old drama, or you have found yourself in a psychological thriller that you didn’t sign up for. Wouldn’t it be nice to have more creative control over the remaining narrative? Your story is not finished and, if you're like most of us, it probably wouldn't hurt to get some help with the writing process.

Our automatic somatic, psychological, and behavioural responses to situations can be puzzling at times. Exploring the origins underlying those reactions on our own can be draining and lonely. I offer a safe, inquisitive, and nonjudgmental space to explore your story together. I aim to help you practice self-compassion and self-awareness to foster acceptance and appreciation of your unique qualities and gain heightened understanding of your experiences. I cater to teens and adults in Ontario, Canada seeking virtual psychotherapy supports.

With over 7 years of experience in psychotherapy, I offer a safe and comfortable space for you to explore your emotions and gain insight into life patterns that may no longer be serving you. Whether you need therapy to unpack past experiences or work towards future goals, I'm here to accompany you on this journey. Together, we can explore your potential, improve your relationships, and help you live a more authentic life.

Are you finding it hard to connect with yourself and others? Have you been feeling down, disinterested, withdrawn or anxious? Perhaps recent experiences have left you feeling crippled with self-doubt. Or maybe the best way to describe it is simply that you’re feeling stuck? I would like to help. Together we will identify persisting patterns of relating to the self and your environment that leave you feeling this way. We will chart a course to self-awareness and acceptance through alternative paths and choices. Using a psychodynamic approach, I create a safe space for us to explore difficult thoughts, feelings and behaviours.

I provide therapy that draws from traditions of psychoanalytic and psychodynamic psychotherapy. Our sessions together will explore the questions, difficulties, and significant experiences that you encounter in life—in your relationships, at work, or in moments when no one else is watching—with the aim of providing insight and fostering personal growth. Whether you’re in the midst of a painful crisis now or just looking for some insights into your unique responses to life, psychoanalytic therapy can be a valuable tool to help you understand where you are and find a path forward.

I understand that vulnerability in therapy can be new and intimidating work for some of us. I strive to provide a safe, non-judgmental and comforting environment for those from various backgrounds. My primary focus is centred on supporting young adults struggling with transitional periods, anxiety/depression and individuals who may struggle with intergenerational trauma, depression, anxiety, self-esteem, and emotional regulation.
