Therapists in Kanata, ON

These are strange times in which we have found ourselves. Trying to reconnect and re-engage in our "new" world can be overwhelming and exhausting. What were once little worries are now becoming cycling thoughts with no end. We tell ourselves that it's easier to stay on the couch than it is to venture out, call a friend, start that project, or discover a new interest. Perhaps you feel torn? Part of you knows what it wants to see happen in your life and knows what to do to get you there, but another part seems so intent on convincing you that you don't have the motivation or strength to change; you feel so stuck. I know ways to help.

I firmly believe in the inherent worth and resilience of every individual. My therapeutic style is grounded in creating a non-judgmental space where clients can openly discuss their experiences.

I am a registered psychotherapist in Kanata experienced in assisting adults, couples, youth & families with personal issues, with relationships, & with career issues. I use an evidence based approach tailored to meet your individual need. Together, we work to create a supportive, safe & nonjudgemental environment to help you make changes in your life, relieve anxiety, stress, reach new understandings & ultimately achieve true personal growth. My expertise is in communication with both professionals & families. I have training in resilience for anxiety & depression for adolescents, children, adults & in navigating school challenges

As a Registered Social Worker and Psychotherapist who’s trauma-informed, my work focuses on helping clients re-establish and rebuild safety with their emotions, their body and to assimilate challenging experiences.

Accepting new clients. We all struggle at one time or another, facing challenges that make us wonder where to turn. Seeking therapy can be an extremely rewarding experience as you learn to navigate these challenges and uncover your strengths while taking strides towards your ideal self. I work with clients experiencing depression, anxiety, grief, with a specialization in life transitions and perinatal mental health. My approach is empathic, and non-judgemental with a strong client focus. I utilize techniques from positive psychology, narrative therapy, CBT, as well as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy.

Avoiding? Self-sabotaging? Shutting down? I specialize in depression, anxiety, relationships, stress, anger, transitions, body image, self-esteem and procrastination. I'm just myself with my clients - relaxed, down to earth and totally non-judgmental. I'd love to help you tap into the strongest, most authentic version of yourself, so that you can live life the way you want to (whatever that may be). I want to help you to be confident and unshaken by distress.

As a registered Social Worker, Psychotherapist and Clinical Director, I strive to deliver compassionate and empathetic support in working with the client in finding their inner strength and abilities and expanding on those for success. I believe every individual is capable to succeed and breakthrough their past current and future challenges/struggles, whatever they might be. With the focus of the client as the expert and the clinician as supportive expert, you will have the opportunity to be guided through your own strengths and abilities in moving forward and finding happiness/success through the life course.

At The Centre for Couples and Relationships, we believe that intimate relationships are central to human connection, attachment, and well-being.

We work with couples and partners struggling with issues such as communication, disconnection, intimacy, infidelity, and family dynamics. We provide a safe and supportive environment for you to explore your relationship dynamics and to repair previous patterns of conflict or hurt.
