As a psychoanalyst, I treat individuals with a variety of maladies: including generalized anxiety, phobias and panic attacks, addiction, depression, persistent grief, dissatisfaction and dissociation, conflicted feelings towards family and loved ones, relational disorders, inhibition, psychosomatic symptoms and obsessional and compulsive behaviours.
Most of us encounter obstacles in our private lives on our way to reaching our goals. While some of these impediments can be navigated through focus, hard work and perseverance, there are others whose stubborn insistence seems to worsen as we struggle to make progress. There are times in our lives when it is necessary to confront what lies beneath, and to explore the meanings of our suffering. I offer the safe and confidential setting of a psychoanalytic treatment to individuals seeking to address their personal issues. Please contact me if you are interested in learning more about treatment.

Growing up in Canada as the daughter of first generation immigrants has taught me the importance of cultivating a self-narrative that is both compassionate and curious; a part of myself that I can call on during times of uncertainty, pain, and turbulence to help me repair and reconnect. How we view ourselves is related to how we feel inside, and the kind of relationship we build with those feelings is important. When we are disconnected from our feelings, we often experience being stuck. I wish to work together with you on this journey to become unstuck – to provide support, honesty, and take witness in your transformation.

Family Therapy Counsellors

What do family therapists do?

A family therapist facilitates the process of understanding and improving how a family functions. The therapist will help family members develop empathy for one another. They’ll seek to understand existing patterns, misunderstandings, and conflicts that arise, in order to help the family arrive at a realistic, unified understanding and develop the coping skills they need to build stronger relationships.

How long does therapy for families take to work?

Therapy manifests differently in every family; a common time frame is 12 weekly sessions, but some families may see improvement after just a few weeks. Families should discuss their goals with the therapist at the beginning of the process and periodically revisit those goals to assess their progress together.

How can you encourage a family member to attend family therapy?

You can encourage family members to attend therapy by expressing with both love and concern the challenges you see and explaining how a therapist could help the family navigate those challenges together. An outside perspective can help everyone feel heard, get on the same page, and develop new skills. If family members are still hesitant, it may be helpful to emphasize that family therapy is short-term—it won’t last forever.

Is therapy for families effective?

Family therapy can significantly improve family dynamics and relationships. Research suggests that family therapy can help individuals understand their role in the family, communicate and solve problems together, reduce conflict and draw boundaries when necessary, and develop coping skills for stressors, major life changes, and mental or physical illnesses within the family.
