With a deep curiosity for the human condition, I practice Integrative Therapy, combining elements drawn from various methods (including EMDR, SE, CBT, mindfulness, and the Tri-Phasic Trauma Practice Model) to create a tailored approach for each individual and situation. I believe healing is a collaborative endeavour, and the therapeutic relationship is as important as the therapy itself. I offer virtual services, including individual counselling, group therapy, and supervision—As well as 20-minute complimentary consultations. Direct billing is available through Canada Life, Green Shield, SunLife, and Blue Cross/Medavie.

Suffering from internal conflict? Looking for self development? Wondering how trauma has impacted you? If you are ready to make more sense of your self in relationships with the world, I'm interested in working with you. I agree with the view that trauma is any unsupported experience that remains unresolved in your nervous system. In gestalt therapy, we call this "unfinished business". Unsupported traumas can result in various mental health diagnoses. I've worked with people experiencing simple to complex chronic conditions, and enjoy processing and getting clarity to support reconnecting with healthy self-functioning.

Integrative Counsellors

What is integrative therapy?

Integrative therapy is a type of therapy that combines ideas and techniques from different therapeutic approaches depending on the needs of the individual client. By merging elements of different treatments, an integrative therapist aims to offer a more flexible approach than those who practice just one type of therapy.

How does integrative therapy work?

Integrative therapy approaches a client’s mental, physical, and emotional health in a holistic way to discover the sources of their unhealthy behaviour patterns or other challenges and considers the approach most likely to lead to improvement. Among the techniques an integrative therapist may practice are cognitive-behavioural therapy, dialectical behaviour therapy, EMDR, mindfulness, art or music therapy, psychodynamic therapy, breathwork, family systems therapy, gestalt therapy, and trauma-informed therapy. An integrative therapist regularly evaluates the client’s progress and is prepared to pivot to a different approach if progress stalls.

How long does integrative therapy last?

As with most forms of talk therapy, there is no set duration or end point for integrative therapy; people who find they are making progress typically continue until they feel they’ve addressed the issues that spurred them to seek treatment. New patients should understand that it may take some time for a therapist to land on a treatment approach that best meets their needs, but once they do, they should expect sessions to extend for a number of months, typically including at least 12 sessions.

How effective is integrative therapy?

There are hundreds of types of talk therapy, and research shows that while they vary in form, goals, and frequency, many if not all can produce similarly successful outcomes. But a single approach does not always deliver the greatest, or speediest, benefit, and so even therapists primarily trained in one model will use tools, language, techniques, or exercises from others to shape an effective treatment plan.
