Divorce Therapists in Ontario

When you’re feeling sad, angry, or frustrated in an important relationship—whether it's with your partner, your children, or with yourself after a divorce or big transition—it’s impossible to enjoy your life. All your energy goes towards managing those difficult emotions, and you feel drained, stressed-out, lonely, and scared. What’s worse, everything else suffers, too: sleep, work, and most important, your children. If this is where you are today, you are not alone. Most of us never learned how to create warm, connected relationships that help us grow. Fortunately these skills CAN be learned—and it doesn't take that long!

If you are going through a separation or divorce, you are probably concerned about the effect on your children. This can be a difficult time for them. Children’s emotions may go through stages and change. Your child may feel sad, confused, angry, guilty or worried about what will happen to them. How you handle the changes will be important for your child’s well-being. This is where I can help. I have over 27 years of experience working with children and families with a particular focus at this point in my career, on separation and divorce and the resulting impact on the family unit.

I work with clients in the areas of couples, divorce/separation, policing/first responders, stress management, anxiety, depression, bereavement, blended/step-families, cross-cultural issues, and healthy relationships. I use solution focused techniques, somatic experiencing and mindfulness strategies to guide my clients to build their own "tool box" with skills to assist them through difficult emotions, situations and life events.

Facing a major loss challenges us to our core. We can be left feeling overwhelmed and alone, full of grief, sadness, anger or fear. I will walk alongside you on your journey through grief.

Life can be full of joy, connection and meaning. It can also be stressful, challenging and wounding.

I think of each person’s life as a story and each chapter of each story is unique. Like every great story, our lives are filled with people, experiences, emotions, and perspectives. Some chapters of our stories are more difficult than others and there are times when transitioning from one chapter to the next can be challenging. As a clinician, I am committed to partnering with clients to examine what their story has been, what it has meant for them and what they want the next chapter to be. Over the last 25 years, it has been an honour to help people become the authors of their own lives.

Sometimes life can throw us for a loop; it can feel like chaos and challenging to manage. Doing the best with what you have, but maybe that doesn't feel like enough. Carrying around the weight of problems can be exhausting. It can impact relationships, work performance, school, and parenting or simply make it difficult to find enjoyment in the simple things. I can help with many challenges such as anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, feeling stuck, facing relationship problems, high-conflict divorce, separation, or even processing a new family structure.

Sometimes in life, we can feel stuck and have a hard time seeing our way forward. A change in your life can leave you feeling hopeless, empty, confused, or lost. Ending a relationship, loosing a loved one, or finding yourself as a caregiver may throw you on a path that you didn’t expect and have a hard time navigating. Right now, you can't see your way forward, but you want to find a way through the weeds so you don't feel so bogged down and overwhelmed.

We all feel untethered at various points in life. I can offer a different perspective in those moments, challenge negative self talk and help you recognize and build on your strengths. If you want change in your life, I can help you craft that. If you need to re-establish boundaries, I can help you do this. If anxiety or depression are overwhelming I can help you develop healthy strategies. If you're struggling with changes in relationships or loss of relationship I offer compassionate constructive assistance. There is nothing that you can't talk about with me, and once shared, problems can be carried and resolved together.
