Therapists in Brantford, ON

Currently accepting new clients. "Therapy really works!” This is my experience with therapy as well as many other people’s therapy experience with me. I believe that you can have a similar experience - an experience that you will feel understood and empowered.

I am also trained in many different psychotherapy modalities that I will tailor our therapy sessions to your unique needs. I can use practical approaches as well as insight oriented approaches.

Such a client can be a new college graduate struggling for a better understanding of her self-identity or a senior questioning his life's meaning. The issues I am best suited to addressing are both the dark sides of the human condition-such as depression, anxiety, anger, loss, suffering, and death-and the bright sides of personal growth and flourishing.

I have a proven record of more than 10 years of dealing with a wide range of clients, including those struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, and other mental health issues. I have also worked extensively with couples and families. I am skilled in using a variety of therapeutic approaches, including CBT, Solution Focused Therapy, Trauma-informed interventions ( IFS, Somatic works, yoga therapy, Hypnotherapy), Mindfulness, Family Counselling, and Couple Therapy.
