Therapists in T3A

Are you and your partner easily triggered by each other, creating consistent conflict? Or have you stopped expressing what you feel and think, resulting in loneliness and disconnection? Have either of you communicated that you’re unhappy? Imagine if you could learn how to identify and work on your contribution in a relationship, share thoughts and feelings productively with another person, and listen non-defensively and with curiosity. It’s exciting when people take a risk to engage with others in a different way and feel good about the action they took.

I am passionate about helping you restore serenity and peace in your life. I listen carefully to understand your experience, and respond to you with care and empathy. This is a process which helps you become more aware of your own strengths and resiliency and discover new possibilities. This process will help you be able to make more conscious decisions in your life, based on your own best interest instead of on old behaviour patterns. Whether you are facing an overwhelming problem or are just feeling dissatisfied with your life, you may benefit from working with me.

Welcome! It takes courage to begin the journey towards wellness and wholeness. Whether you’re feeling exhausted, confused, sad, numb, anxious, stuck, or just ready to take the next big step, I’d be honoured to walk beside you as you heal and grow. Traumatic or painful life events like violence, abuse, losses, or accidents may have suddenly or drastically thrown you off of your life trajectory. Or, maybe they happened a long time ago yet resurface, affecting habits, decisions, and relationships today. Therapy can help you to feel empowered and in control of your life by restoring stability, safety, and trust.

Are you open to new possibilities? In order to understand who you want to be, you have to know who you are first. Gain insight and awareness into your situation, and learn to extract the lessons from your past struggles to develop new ways of coping and managing the challenges in your life. From early on, people learn behaviors to protect themselves for survival — but what worked in the past may no longer be helpful today. When basic human needs aren’t met, the outcome is often depression, anxiety, relationship conflict, or even addiction.

Are you looking for a safe and judgement free place to explore your past, present and future? Are you someone who wants to share their story, struggles, and hopes, but wants therapy to provide observable change? Are you someone who is hesitant to seek therapy because of the fear of feeling misunderstood or judged? Many of my clients say they were hesitant to seek therapy because they feared being judged or misunderstood. I work hard to create a safe, judgement free place for you to share your story so we can explore the tools for you move forward.

I believe everyone has strengths, support, and a desire for growth. Such support needs to encompass unconditional positive regard and understanding. It is important to meet clients where they are and strive towards their goals with compassion, while gently challenging beliefs. I believe that all clients have a unique perspective of their situation, which is rooted in their identity, values, and culture. My previous work with disadvantaged populations and clients on their grief journey taught me that the challenges individuals face are contextualized to their sociocultural positionality, identity, and relationship dynamics.

Are you feeling disconnected and misunderstood in your relationship? Do you feel like your partner does not "get you," and your needs and values are not being met? I believe that we all need help from time to time to see ourselves and our relationships more clearly, and to develop new ways of living fuller, healthier lives. I am an expert in relationships and have over 20 years of experience. I work from a psychobiological and attachment perspective and I help my clients understand themselves and each other on deeper level. I work with couples and individuals interested in creating happier, more fulfilled lives.

Hi there! I believe in approaching mental health holistically and experientially. I work from a neurobiological and trauma-informed perspective. I utilize body-centred approaches, emotion-focused approaches, and mindfulness in my work with clients. I believe in helping clients develop self-awareness and a deeper understanding of the more unconscious feelings and beliefs that influence thoughts and behaviours. In doing this, we are able to address the root of the issue to create lasting change.
