Let's Connect (647) 496-3290

Accepting new clients! Specializing in separation and divorce. You are feeling overwhelmed, anxious, and frustrated. You had hopes and dreams of having a lasting relationship, but everything has changed. You’re wondering how you got to this point and where to go from here. You think to yourself, “I can’t continue living this way,” and you want to find your footing. You’re wondering how to navigate the next phase of your life and to make time to prioritize yourself so you can work through your struggles. You deserve time, attention, and to be heard.

Together we will set goals, identify your values, create a self-care plan, and develop new tools so you can move forward. In sessions, you will unpack your story, develop skills to set boundaries, learn to communicate effectively and reconnect with yourself outside of being a couple. It’s never too late for a fresh start, to embrace your new chapter.

I know finding time for counselling can be hard, but you don't have to do it alone. I offer sessions in person, by video, and by phone. You can easily book sessions and consultations through my online calendar. Email me to book a free 30-minute consultation or book directly on my website. Let's get started. I'm ready to listen

I work with clients struggling with stress, separation/divorce and challenges related to ADHD. During our initial session, we will explore the challenges you are experiencing, the strengths you already have, and your goals for counselling. Then we will create a plan that is tailored to your unique needs and preferences. It may be solutions, support, tools or space to share.

I use a variety of modalities in sessions. Rather than which type I prefer, my approach is to consider which is the best fit for you and your needs. There is no one-size-fits-all-all in therapy. In addition, I always work from a strengths-based, anti-oppressive and trauma-informed lens. Feel free to email me and ask about a type of therapy that you have heard about and are interested in.
