Therapists in Kingston, ON

Effective April 22nd, I am welcoming new clients! With over 19 years experience, I work collaboratively with teens and pre-teens (9-18), adults, and families to find hope and regain balance. Perhaps you've suffered great loss or you're wanting more from your relationships. Maybe you're dealing with anxiety or you're re-evaluating your life and are on the brink of a major transition. Or you're worried about your teen and the direction they're headed. A lot of us get weighed down by one thing after another. Whatever it is, if you're feeling unsure or unsettled and you're seeking a greater sense of ease, allow me to support you.

If you are reading this you are likely going through a hard time in your life. Perhaps you are processing a traumatic event, are trying to get back on your feet after being knocked down for the umpteenth time, or grieving the loss of someone, or something, precious to you? No matter what it is, I would like to try and help you overcome life's obstacles by untangling the knots of thought and feeling that hold you in place.

If you've been powering through, staying strong and carrying on, but now you're barely getting by and you're tired of feeling like you're not really living your life, it might be time for outside support. The benefit of therapy is that it's a time where you get to focus on yourself, to look at your life, and to get an outside perspective on how it could be different. You don't have to just endure, with the right support, you can heal from the past, and move forward towards a better future.

Have you been experiencing increased anxiety or depression, or find yourself needing support for a troubled relationship? Maybe life has given you a entire bag of lemons; whatever the reason, I'm here to help. We will collaboratively develop goals in a supportive and empathetic atmosphere so you can hopefully achieve a more balanced life. Be warned, I keep it real as life is too short for a bunch of psycho-babble.

You’re dealing with a lot; feeling guilty and confused. Guilty for not loving more or trying harder. They’re telling you these things - it must be true, right? They were charismatic and charming, showering you with PDA and compliments, but it all changed. You’re embarrassing they say, and now you feel trapped and broken. You’re not alone. It's not your fault. You Google “abusive relationships” and read about narcissistic abuse. That’s your life! You need guidance. I know this because I needed it too. I chased “good enough” trying to “behave well” for my family. After college, I married and divorced a narcissist who always blamed me.

Welcoming new clients! Like the transition from fall to winter, we all go through seasons that threaten our livelihood and shake us from thriving to dormancy. This often leaves us questioning our meaning and purpose. Your experience may be a devastating loss, lack of energy, motivation, and enjoyment in activities and people that once brought you joy or physical and psychological restlessness. It is difficult in such states to understand how flourishing is possible. However, there is hope! Just as winter gives way to spring showers and new life springs forth to flourishing, neither is your situation hopeless; you can thrive again.

Under the framework of modern attachment theories, I work with clients to gain a greater sense of self-autonomy, determination and understanding. Many of our thoughts and feelings go unchecked during the busyness of a common day. In our work together, we will first learn to identify maladaptive core beliefs that so often plague our mental wellness. From there, I will implement EFT, narrative, and mindfulness approaches to combat self-defeating behaviours. How we think and feel about ourselves has a profound effect on our overall well-being, and both consciously and subconsciously influences every action (or in-action) we take.

Parenting is not just about navigating the day to day responsibilities of raising children. It's also about managing dynamics between partners as they navigate the complexities of child-rearing. Each parent brings their own upbringing, beliefs & expectations into the mix, creating a rich tapestry of perspectives. However, when these perspectives clash, it can create discord & tension in the relationship. Suddenly, what was once a seamless partnership feels disjointed, with communication breaking down & disagreements escalating. Parenting therapy offers a supportive space to explore these challenges
