Anxiety Therapists in Winnipeg, MB

I have been working as a psychotherapist for over 20 years, helping people overcome struggles with panic attacks, OCD, anxiety and major life stressors such as divorce, loss and relationships. I also help clients struggling with self esteem, social difficulties, jealousy, loneliness, guilt, grief and trauma. I help clients identify areas of stuckness and help them resolve patterns of defeating thinking and behaviour, to find new solutions using evidence-based methods that yield results. I work under the clinical supervision of Dr Darek Dawda.

Making your way to this website is an important step to improving your life. Choosing the right therapist is really about how well you are understood and guided to resolve what you came for. Since 1990 I've made my counselling different by not dividing people into issues or problems. You are you. What is happening in your life is unique. If you are still unsure about choosing the most effective therapist for you, go to our website and read for yourself the words of those who discovered how to make it happen in their own lives. Don't hesitate; this is the next step.

Most of my clients struggle with Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD), Anxiety and/or Depression. Often times, their day-to-day activities suffer due to the implications of these challenges. Their relationships, professional goals, and personal aspirations seem difficult to realize. Their primary goal is to live purposeful, happy lives alongside OCD, Depression, and/or Anxiety. They wish to manage the impact of these challenging mental health problems and feel empowered.

Life's difficulties call to us to craft a story for ourselves and not just any story will do. One-size-fits-all therapy runs the risk of oversimplifying problems, ignoring injustice and social context, and putting us in boxes. I bring 20 years experience to working with youth and adults in a way that values kindness, open co-created conversation, humility, storytelling, growing the strength of our own voices, and what it looks like to 'do justice' to ourselves and others. I am highly skilled at listening to the parts of the story that matter the most and I will work closely with your goals and interests.

Do you find yourself acting in ways that don’t fit your values or beliefs or responding to situations in ways that seem irrational to you? Sometimes this is due to unresolved past issues and sometimes it is due to habits developed in previous life situations that are no longer useful but have not yet been changed. I can help you to get your heart and mind on the same page in order to move forward with your life goals. If trauma, depression, anxiety or chronic pain are in the way, I can provide tools to manage these and therapy to help heal the roots of these.

I have worked in Mental Health for over two decades. My approach is person centered and strength based therapy. I work with individuals and couples to provide support and guidance by building new and existing skills to help navigate challenges and difficulties. I will help you better understand ways to work through struggles and tailor a treatment based on your individual needs, strengths and desired outcomes. My goal is to help improve your overall quality of life. I specialize in areas of depression, anxiety, situational crisis, work place stress, grief, addiction and also provide a 2SLGBTQI+ safe environment.

Now accepting new clients. Life is challenging. You may not feel heard or seen. You may need help figuring out how to manage and/or live your best life. You may just feel you need the tools to learn how to cope or you may just want to understand why this is happening now and to you. Life's challenges affect all of us in different ways. We all search for the answers that speak to us. Whatever the challenges you, and/or your family are experiencing, you do not have to go through it alone.

I offer Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) for the treatment of mood and anxiety disorders, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, trauma, coping with chronic pain, coping with stress, and other difficulties with thoughts, emotions, and behaviours. I value a client centred approach, and will work with you to tailor evidence-based treatments to your individual needs. I believe that the environments that we live and work in, and the people we interact with are important influences on our mental health, and will work with you to create health not only in yourself, but also in your life.

Accepting new clients. You deserve the opportunity to heal, grow, and feel more like yourself! I work with individuals experiencing major life transitions, relationship difficulties, or generally feeling stuck, overwhelmed, anxious, or depressed.

Life can be difficult and overwhelming even at the best of times. Reaching out for support can help bring clarity and meaning to your situation and provide you with the support you need during these times. I want you to live the satisfying and meaningful life you deserve free from guilt, shame, anxiety and depression. I view treatment holistically and through a trauma-informed lens. I use a strength based approach so that you understand you are valuable and have unique gifts and abilities to share with the world.

Throughout my extensive and varied professional experience I have had the privilege to work with clients in many different contexts. Some of the topics and challenges I’ve helped clients with include anxiety, depression, family/parent conflict, relationship struggles, motivation, abandonment issues, boundary setting, shame, vulnerability, communication skills, anger, identity, gender, sexuality, trauma, suicidal ideation and substance use. I believe everyone has many examples of resilience in their life, which I work to celebrate and help clients build upon. I value safe and affirming care practices for all identities.

Whatever it is that’s bothering you, there’s no need to struggle alone. Whatever it is, it can help to talk about it. Sometimes we just need someone to really hear us. Sometimes we need to learn new skills to help us cope. Sometimes we need help figuring out how what has happened to us affects how we think, feel and behave. Sometimes we need help to heal from things we have done, or things that were done to us. You’re here because you think it might be time to talk to someone, too.

Everyone struggles in life and sometimes those challenges can feel overwhelming. Asking for help can be hard but it demonstrates strength and courage. We all have a need to feel seen, heard and understood—especially during our most difficult times. I offer a safe and non-judgmental space for you to process your thoughts and feelings. Together we will expand on, and enhance your self-awareness and ability to cope with life’s most challenging moments.

Showing up for yourself is a brave first step and you are worth it. Something is preventing you from living your best, most intentionally fulfilled life. You recognize something needs to change and you would like to understand the root cause of your anxiety, depression, stress, and chronic disease; to make some lasting positive changes. You are not alone; it would be my privilege to accompany you on your journey to wellness and support you in achieving your goals.
