I am accepting new clients! Life can be confusing when navigating transitions, challenges, old patterns and trauma. Enhancing your well-being requires courage and sometimes support. I have always been drawn to helping others as they navigate their life journey toward growth, resiliency, well-being, and joy. Using a positive, person-centred, strength-based, and trauma-informed approach, I provide a safe and accepting space to process your mental, emotional and spiritual load. Here we will journey together toward your personal mental health and growth goals. Reaching out is difficult, so congratulations on taking that first step!
We are all unique and learn differently. I use EMDR, CBT, CPT, mindfulness, self-compassion, and supportive counselling to tailor treatment plans and skills to fit your values, learning style, personal characteristics, strengths, and resources. Successful therapy is collaborative and more effective when we work together on your needs.
I support clients challenged with stress, transitions, anxiety, depression, burnout, grief, PTSD, trauma and suicidality, as well as Personality and Psychological disorders. Everyone's journey is different, so let's talk and discover your steps to increase your well-being. I currently offer accessible and secure virtual and phone appointments across Ontario.

Life challenges and transitions can put us into uncomfortable anxiety-filled survival modes. My treatment plans usually start with stabilization by building an understanding of what survival mode means, how it affects us and ways to bring ourselves out of it. Doing so increases the internal strength and ability required to reduce adverse symptoms, face problems and move forward in healthier ways.
