Therapists in H4A

I am a Psychologist/Registered Marriage Therapist in private practice. I work with individuals and couples dealing with life's challenges, losses and inevitable transitions. I help clients get clarity of their situation, identify and modify self-defeating patterns of behaviour and begin to recognze the negative interaction cycles that keep them stuck. My goal is to build trust, emotional safety, empathy and forgiveness. For relationships too wounded to repair, I will help couples separate with dignity and respect. I use an integrative approach combining psychodynamic / EFT/family systems /CBT therapies. I offer online sessions.

I support people in cultivating their inner strength and wisdom to overcome challenges they are facing. My aim is to help people alleviate past and present suffering– feelings of grief, shame, anger, or anxiety– in order to lead healthier, more empowered and fulfilling lives. In practice, I encourage a collaborative therapeutic relationship, whereby all parties play an active role and clients feel feeling safe and supported to express themselves. With an MSW from McGill, and an ongoing career as a professional artist, I integrate my clinical skills, creativity and intuitive nature into my work.

The human experience, while shared, can sometimes feel lonely and isolating. I am a trauma-informed, anti-oppression centered therapist, who has worked with people who are experiencing difficult life circumstances. We can work on depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, life transitions, confusion about life direction, motivation and relationships. Working together, we can problem-solve and build capacity towards coping with difficulties. I am person-centered, and use psychodynamic, and somatic approaches to help you meet your goals.

I believe that counselling is a collaboration, and that the stories we all create as we go through life can be explored, challenged and enriched in the therapeutic space. As we uncover the elements of your story together, we’ll get curious about what’s been hindering as well as supporting you—all while finding a path forward that keeps your core values at the center of our practice.

I am a fully bilingual clinical psychologist/psychotherapist with 28 years of rich and varied clinical experience within medical settings and mental health services in the UK and France. I provide a wide range of psychological interventions always tailored to a patient's needs. I help patients get their life back on track as I care deeply about their psychological and physical wellbeing. Having a highly sensitive temperament myself, I offer help to those who have identified themselves as highly sensitive and as a result, face issues that are difficult to deal with. My approach, while primarily psychodynamic, includes EMDR, cognitive strategies, schema therapy, mindfulness.

My three specialization are couples, individuals and families. I work to improve attachment and communication. We tackle those scripted cycles that can feel “stuck in a rut”. I use techniques and activities to deepen understanding and build intimacy. I work with a myriad of issues including trauma, addiction and burnout to name a few. I offer ways to help strengthen parenting skills in order to support children (Please note: I do not work alone with children). I work with adolescents with a focus on respect and strengthening skills for individuation. I hold a deep belief in supporting folks in finding resilience.

I have been working with individual adult clients for over a decade to help them address a wide range of difficulties, including depression, anxiety, perfectionism, interpersonal conflict/disconnection, and difficulty adjusting to the inevitable challenges, losses, and changes we encounter as we move through life. My approach to psychotherapy is experiential, using Internal Family Systems (IFS) as a primary frame, while also integrating elements from other mindfulness-based interventions in order to help clients connect directly to their unique emotional landscapes and behavioural patterns.

ON-LINE/Virtual Sessions. I've been a psychotherapist and Trauma Specialist for at least 30 years and have worked for various companies & organizations. In my private practise, I enjoy working with clients who are open and willing to make positive changes in their lives. Whether you feel anxious, stuck, depressed or unhappy in some area of your life, my initial goal is to help you gain a feeling of safety. I encourage clients to tell me their story to help them see things from a fresh perspective, improve self-awareness and provide practical solutions & treatments i.e EMDR, IFS(Internal Family Systems) and more...

Life can be challenging for all of us at times. I’m here to witness your pain, and together, we will find a path forward. I believe successful therapy starts with a warm, caring, open and authentic relationship. I provide client-centred, flexible and collaborative therapy tailored to your goals and needs. I pay special attention to the broader contexts your life story situates in, including your family relationships, social circles, culture, religion, the larger society and beyond. I focus on your strengths and values as sources of healing, and together, we will navigate with mindfulness and compassion.
