I practice integrative psychotherapy, with a heavy influence of Attachment Theory, Parts Work and the interconnected role of our nervous system.
I understand the feeling of overwhelm that some may have towards therapy, this understanding enables me to be genuine and intentional within our work. Trauma, relational pressures, stress, etc. can impede our ability to live in the present; working through challenging emotions and experiences provides us with the ability to practice discernment. I believe in the philosophy that we are innately pulled towards health, therefore I believe in your capacity to move towards a healthier and happier version of yourself.

Hello! I am a Registered Psychotherapist with over 14 years of experience providing counselling and psychotherapy services to a diverse, adult population. As an adjunct clinical professor, I supervised and trained junior colleagues and student therapists for over 5 years. Finding a therapist you "click with" is one of the best predictors of positive outcome in therapy. I value getting to know who you are aside from your presenting concerns and developing a genuine, human connection. Using evidence-based practice, I will pull from different models of therapy to tailor my approach to your specific needs and who you are as a person.

I use flexible integrative approach drawing on theories and techniques based on what will be the best fit for the client in front of me.
Are you ready to understand yourself and your patterns better? Do you want to learn how to respond to life's challenges in way that feels more aligned with who you WANT to be? I work with individuals experiencing increased anxiety, overwhelming stress, low mood, work burnout, negative body image, frustrating family dynamics or relationship issues getting in the way of living your life fully.

I use an integrative approach designed for your specific needs, goals, and history, to support you in re-connecting to your authentic self.
Have you ever felt like you needed to do “more” or be “more” in order to feel like you are “enough?” Overwhelmed by guilt if you have needs of your own? Or believe if you did acknowledge YOU in relationships it could end in abandonment, disappointment or being alone? You may have learned to relate to yourself in this way for as long as you can remember and does not mean you are “broken” in need of being “fixed”. When we remove judgment and begin to see our “true self” through the lens of curiosity we get to reconnect with who we have always wanted to be but was too afraid to try.

I utilize an integrative approach to psychotherapy tailored to the unique needs, values, identities, and goals of my clients.
Life can be tricky to navigate at the best of times, and we can quickly feel as though we’re in over our heads. Sometimes we need somebody to walk alongside us, bear witness to our struggle, and offer a safe space to explore what we really need to start living the life that embodies our values. I am a person-centred psychotherapist that operates out of a trauma-informed, humanistic framework in my provision of individual counselling for adults. I am open to supporting folks who may be struggling with mental health, facing difficult life transitions, struggling in relationships, or in need of support for processing trauma or grief.

In my work, I use an integrative, evidence-based approach that is strengths-based and change-oriented.
It can feel disheartening, overwhelming, and confusing to recognize that you are not living the life that you envisioned for yourself. Although we are all the experts of our own lived experiences, we can use a supportive space to prioritize our wellbeing and take the steps to move towards a values-based life. I am a person-centered, anti-oppressive therapist who provides individual counselling to adults looking for support with mental health concerns such as anxiety and depression, trauma, grief, life transitions, stress and race-related stress, and friendship or romantic relationship difficulties.

Using a somatic, trauma-informed, attachment-focused integrative approach, I collaborate with you to explore your own story and discover hope.
Perhaps, a sudden event has happened in your life, leaving you feeling disoriented and confused. Your usual ways of coping are no longer working. You know things in your mind, but your body is reacting differently. By working with the nervous system, you will learn how to emotionally regulate and integrate past experiences so that they no longer control your life. You may be someone who 'feels off,' yet can't identify what it is. You know that you have gone through things in your life but think, "others have had it much worse." However, you are finally at a place where you want to feel better and sort out what that 'thing' is.

You want to feel grateful for what you have. You want to make yourself a priority, but somehow what you want is overlooked. You are not alone. Managing self-care, the dynamics of relationships, parenting, and a professional life can easily feel out of balance.

Perhaps you notice feelings of anxiety, fear, perfectionism, or repetitive patterns that you long to change.

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.
