Therapists in K0J

Now accepting new clients! As a Registered Psychotherapist, I provide psychotherapy for individuals 16 years of age and older. I aspire to hold a warm, compassionate, and open space for clients to experience a genuine sense of trust and safety. My therapeutic scope includes anxiety disorder, trauma, life transitions, interpersonal challenges, loss and grief, low self-esteem, bipolar disorder, depression, OCD, personal growth, ASD, and meaning making and existential exploration. I also work with parents of neurodiverse children to support them in their own processing and healing to better cope with the parenting demands.

Are you on the cusp of a life transition that is overwhelming and anxiety provoking? Are you feeling frustrated with conflict or poor communications in your relationship or family? There are many reasons to enter the therapeutic process. Change is inevitable. Therapy provides an opportunity to shape the change with insight and intention and at a faster rate than if you simply allow time to make the change for you.

In today's world, it can be hard to live a life that is in line with your values. Stress, burnout, emotional dysregulation, anxiety, depression, and trauma can cloud the path forward to a healthy life where you feel whole and fulfilled. I will help you create your own inner field guide, to understand yourself and your patterns. My goal is to get to the root of your challenges and to access your own inner wisdom that knows, deep down, what direction you need to take.

In today's world there are no shortage of issues, problems or challenges that are commonly experienced on any given day by countless folks. What is unique is how we each identify, experience and cope with or resolve them. It is our philosophy that all human beings are inherently resilient and were never meant to solely cope or deal with many of the issues, problems or challenges that they often take on alone. Sometimes you can't articulate what you are going through, don't know exactly what you need or want and don't know where to start or what to do and that is ok.

HopeWell's motto is to help you, HEAL, LEARN, and GROW. We all need support from time to time to work through stress, past events, or current difficulties. Whether you are recovering from trauma, a loss, a mental health concern, or a chronic stressors - healing is important and possible. As we heal, we have more capacity to learn new skills. Increasing self-awareness and learning new ways to cope, can benefit our wellness and relationships. Whether it is a new way of thinking, managing our emotions, or communicating - learning can be a key part of your therapeutic journey. I'm here to help facilitate healing, learning and growth.

In addition to supporting clients through life transitions and challenges, I offer First Responder or a Trauma Exposed Professional a safe space to work through mental wellness with knowledgable mental health clinician who has also worked in the field. I have come to psychotherapy after having worked almost 20 years as a frontline paramedic and bring a unique perspective to both my First Responder and “civilian” clients. Working together we can maneuver this time of your life to create personal growth and satisfaction in a judgement free, inclusive environment.

"Does anyone know where the love of God goes~When the waves turn the minutes to hours?" [Gordon Lightfoot]...Peoples' curiosity and courage are natural resources & forces that amplify therapy process and results. After years of experience, I am convinced that the most powerful tools for recovery are CBT, DBT (cognitive & dialectical behaviour therapy), EMDR and cardio-emotive feedback therapy... All are founded on the latest scientific findings on the neurobiology of attachment and "heart/brain" treatments. Along with time-tested healing traditions, together we can activate your innate instinct & privilege to become whole and connect meaningfully with others .

Using a client-centred approach, I encourage clients to be collaborative in their treatment. I believe there is always an opportunity for growth and change, and I support clients as they explore their own pathway to increased psychological wellness.

I am passionate about helping my clients overcome their struggles and be able to live the best life they can. I understand how difficult it can be to navigate through life, maintain healthy relationships, all while taking care of yourself.

Building a strong, trusting relationship with my clients is the most important thing to me, and I am excited to get to know you and help you the best I possibly can.

We all come to therapy for different reasons. To process grief and other big life changes such as childbirth, divorce, illness, job loss. To reach out for help with something that we have felt stuck on for so long. To feel less alone with our stresses, our hurts, our struggles. To be more present in our lives. To mend and strengthen relationships. To better understand ourselves. To heal. These, along with so many more, are valid reasons to reach out for help. You are in the right place - you don't have to do it all alone.
