"Something is wrong, but we can't quite grasp what. We search for a better understanding of ourselves in order to solve our emotional and psychological discontent. We think about the events of the day, relationships, childhood and the past. Still, something doesn't seem right. We act and feel in ways that create discord. I provide psychotherapy for people who are interested in looking for the deeper meaning behind the discomfort in their lives. The goal is to be able to have more meaningful relationships, fulfilling work and societal contributions, as well as the capacity to bear the difficulties that are part of living fully."

"Are you struggling to manage your emotions and unsure how to cope? This might be one of the most important steps you take; it is courageous to reach out for help.

I offer therapy for adults ( 25 and older) and couples working through a variety of concerns such as relationships, social skills, depression, anxiety, self-esteem, communication, stress management, divorce, loss, anger management, addiction and other life transitions.

"My approach is empathetic and analytic. I listen and you describe your emotional distress and current situation. Then, working together, we uncover the sources of your difficulties and target goals and solutions. You are the expert on your life; I ask questions and offer my warmth, as well as my observations and perspective. Together we find new perspectives, growth, and the joy that belongs to life. I see individuals and couples for one-hour weekly sessions. Visit my website: www.inthewater.ca."

"Don't you deserve some 'me'-time? We all do. Self-care can mean so many different things - and for many, it means having the chance to explore and unpack their unique life experience. Therapy can be one of the most profound, cathartic and challenging experiences in a person's self-development. Having been a client of therapy, I know how helpful it can be to "unpack" the weight we carry in our lives. You deserve help from an experienced, caring and creative practitioner! I support individuals who are looking for a affordable, creative, compassionate and experiential therapeutic experience."

"We all have natural capacities to right ourselves when things go wrong. But we usually don’t feel that way when we’re looking for therapy. Instead, we often feel stuck and alone, overwhelmed by our feelings and unsatisfied in our relationships. I work with people who want to get unstuck and connect to their innate capacities for growth and change. My main goal is to help you have a positive and true experience of yourself and deeper connections with others. "

"My practice is informed by Narrative Therapy, anti-oppressive and intersectional feminist frameworks. Through my questions, I hope to understand the effects of the problem/difficulty on your life & what is most troubling about it; and about the skills, knowledge, values, commitments & acts of resistance embedded in how you are responding to it. Clients have shared that through my questions they have come to hefty realizations that have transformed they way they see themselves in relation to the problem/concern that had them reaching out; often reflecting that they are leaving conversations with a greater sense of agency/control."

"You are an individual. There is no one else quite like you. Your therapy should be as unique as you are. We are all the products of our past, from experiences that happened so long ago that they escape memory to what happened just as we opened the door to the present moment. Early in our lives, we learn the skills we need to navigate the world we find ourselves in. Those skills stay with us and help protect us on our journey through life. They continually have an impact on how we deal with ourselves and others every day."
