I offer therapy session online via video.
My approach to therapy is grounded in curiosity, compassion, and cultural responsiveness. I believe in meeting each client where they are, honoring the uniqueness of their story and lived experiences. I strive to foster a safe, non-judgmental environment where clients can explore their thoughts and emotions openly. I'm especially passionate about working with individuals exploring their sense of self, managing intergenerational dynamics, or striving to find balance between cultural values and personal growth.

Are you feeling stuck or overwhelmed? Please contact me for a free 20 minute consult. So many people struggle with their concerns alone, whether they are in fact experiencing isolation or whether they are surrounded by other people. Some worry they might burden others, some fear what others might think, and some struggle to believe they are worthy or deserving of support. As a counsellor and social worker, I firmly believe we all need substantial supports in our lives. Whether the issues you're facing feel small or insurmountable, I strive to offer a space where you can share your experiences without feeling judged or ashamed.

I draw from an EFT (Emotionally Focused Therapy) and Person Centered approaches. I also use EFT and Gottman Method approaches for couples work. Postmodernism and social justice lenses are also an important part of my work. I view counselling as a collaborative process that requires both an effort and a desire to work toward change. Some of my lived experiences include systemic racism, chronic pain, religious deconstruction, and marital transition.

Sometimes, we all need someone to talk to. If you’re feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, unsure of who you are, or struggling to manage the weight of life’s pressures, it can be challenging to move forward on your own. If past pain still lingers and quietly affects your daily life, it may be time to seek support, and you don’t have to face it alone.

Online Counsellors

Is online therapy as effective as in-person?

Numerous studies suggest that online therapy can be as effective as in-person therapy. However, further research is needed to determine if online therapy provides the same benefits across all client populations. Individuals with severe mental illnesses, such as schizophrenia or bipolar disorder, or those who may benefit from in-person check-ins, like those with eating disorders, may not experience the same level of benefit from online therapy. Nonetheless, the success of online therapy, much like in-person therapy, often hinges on the quality of the therapeutic relationship between the therapist and the client rather than the specific modality of therapy used.

What are the advantages and disadvantages of therapy conducted online?

One of the main advantages of online therapy is its convenience for both clients and therapists. It also allows clients who require specialised therapy to access a wider range of professionals than they could with only in-person sessions. Additionally, online therapy may be a more affordable option in some cases and often offers the same insurance benefits as in-person therapy. However, online therapy may not be suitable for everyone, especially those who value face-to-face interaction with a therapist. Therapists may find it more challenging to assess clients accurately in an online setting due to reduced nonverbal cues on camera. There is also the increased risk that disruptions caused by external factors, such as technology malfunctions, can hinder the therapy session. For these reasons, many therapists offer a "hybrid" therapeutic approach, alternating between seeing clients in-person and online.

Is online therapy suitable for children and adolescents?

Just like with adults, the accessibility and convenience of online therapy can greatly benefit children and adolescents. In fact, children and adolescents may be more accustomed to navigating online platforms than older adults, making online sessions feel more natural for them. Teens might also be interested in using additional online tools, such as therapist-recommended apps, as an adjunct to online therapy sessions. Apps for developing CBT skills, practicing mindfulness exercises, or tracking thoughts and moods can be helpful for teens receiving therapy. However, it's important to note that not all therapeutic modalities are well-suited to online therapy, especially those used with younger children. For example, play therapy, which helps younger children express their emotions, often requires in-person sessions to be fully effective.

Can I receive prescriptions and medication management with online therapy?

The ability for psychiatrists to prescribe medications through online therapy varies based on the medication and the states where the medical professional and client are located. While many prescribing regulations were relaxed during the COVID-19 pandemic, some states still enforce rules, especially concerning controlled substances, which may mandate an in-person visit before prescribing. Generally, however, medical professionals can prescribe non-controlled substances through online therapy sessions just as they do during in-person sessions.
