Therapists in Hagersville, ON

Choosing the right therapist is a big deal. Just like a travel partner will impact the experiences you have on your trip, your therapist will impact how your mental health journey unfolds. I commend you for making this important decision thoughtfully. To tell you a bit about myself, I am a psychologist working with adults facing a variety of life struggles including trauma, OCD, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, perfectionism, shame, health issues and life transitions. I am grateful to have received training in a range of modalities including mindfulness, compassion focused, emotion focused, CBT and psychodynamic therapies.

My clients usually come to therapy for relief from their mental health symptoms. They are often feeling overwhelmed, have been thinking about making changes for a long time and are feeling stuck in how to move forward. Together we look at the issues, explore how it is impacting their lives, and come up goals and a treatment plan. This treatment plan includes learning more about your mental health, gaining new skills and strategies that you will carry with you long after therapy ends, and finally practicing a language of self-compassion to replace unhelpful/critical thinking.

Addiction, mental health, emotional difficulties, stress and trauma may affect each of us differently at different points throughout our lives. It is my privilege to be able to walk beside you throughout your journey to recovery. Through using different therapeutic approaches and techniques, I work from a primarily client centred approach, knowing that you are the expert on yourself and your needs. Together, we can work through substance use, sex and love addiction, anxiety, depression, trauma or other mental health concerns, to create a life of balance and happiness.

I offer individual, couple, and family psychotherapy. My therapeutic stance is one of respect and active engagement. I like to explore resiliency, knowledge, aspirations and resources so you and I can have conversations that highlight what is going well while gently redirecting thinking and behavioural patterns that may be interfering with your capacity to feel connected to yourself and others. Whether this is solo or partnered endeavour, you will be able to gain clarity of your personal needs, develop self-compassion and acceptance, and uncover new bonding possibilities, and ways to maintain emotional connections.

You are the expert in you, I’m here to help you explore yourself deeper - maybe to make connections you have not been able to. Clients from ages 15 to 100 will find space with me which is collaborative, individualized, nonjudgmental, and genuine. I work with individuals who may be struggling with mental health issues, relationships, trauma, etc., couples/relationships in need of repair, who want to ensure they are planning a healthy future together, who may be struggling to reconnect, or who want to ensure longevity for the relationship. If you are looking for only a few sessions or a longer-term connection, I can accommodate.

The early years of parenting are wild - the intensity of our emotional experience catches most off guard - we desperately want to get it right with our little people; so the stakes feel high. Conflicts arise as we try to negotiate shifting roles and responsibilities while exhausted, under-supported, and lacking in time to ourselves. So many of us feel incredibly overwhelmed with decision making and day to day life with new babies, and disconnected from our partner because we don't have time, energy or the desire to connect in the ways we used to. It can feel like we are in the deep end, treading water with no end in sight.

Healing occurs differently for everyone, and there is never a one-size fits all approach. Allow me to help you each step of the way and to work in collaboration to improve your overall quality of life.

I have supported and equipped individuals, couples, and families to live a relational life of authentic connection to themselves and others regardless of the circumstances they encounter.
