About
Experiencing a lot of stress/anxiety? Having a hard time overcoming your past? Therapy can help. I’m a kind, passionate and experienced counsellor based in Ottawa offering psychotherapy to adult individuals. My goal is to help you get curious about what’s getting in the way of your mental health, and to find clarity, acceptance and motivation to start feeling better. My work is trauma-informed and you can expect to feel safe, accepted and empowered in session. Visit my website for a video about me, what to expect in session, and how to book.
Clients often seek my services for help with anxiety, depression, stress, past trauma/abuse, men's issues and relationship concerns. I'm also passionate about working with fellow queer / 2SLGBTQ+ folks and our allies. All sessions are currently hosted online.
If your gut is telling you to reach out, I hope you listen to your intuition. You're not alone during this difficult time, and you deserve to start feeling better. Therapy will not fix all of your problems, but it can make a big difference in your life and help you find some clarity, acceptance and change. Ready or not, you can do it.
