"(Services bilingues, en français et en anglais) I value your story and how it has brought us together. I believe that all stories are unique by the distinct ways we experience, perceive, understand and overcome obstacles. As your therapist, my priority is to provide a safe and trusting environment that will allow the development of a strong therapeutic alliance between you and me. Through this professional bond, my role is to facilitate interventions in session that will help you rediscover your own strengths, gain self-awareness, and acquire a new perspective of yourself and the world.

"Whether you have struggled to cope with challenges in your life, feel overwhelmed, unsure what to do, or stuck, coming to therapy can be hard. You may feel like you worry constantly, have a hard time connecting with other people, struggle with understanding your own gender or sexual identity, don't have control of your emotions, or like you're drowning under stress. Whether you have a history of interpersonal trauma or not, we all have patterns that get in the way of living our lives to the fullest."

"Life is a series of relationships. We cultivate them with others and with our ever changing and evolving selves. Countless things can happen along the way that interrupt our ability to live freely in our relationships. My goal and life's passion is to help you cultivate more satisfying connections in your life. This may start out with the relationship you have with yourself or in the context of couples/family therapy."

"I work with adults in clinical and health psychology in both English and French.  I treat a variety of psychological issues, on their own or in combination, including depression, anxiety, eating disorders, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and personality disorders.  I work with clients with chronic pain or other health problems.  I also help clients with  relationship issues, work stress, identity issues, existential concerns, LGBTQ concerns, grief, self-esteem, and self-acceptance. "

"As an experienced therapist, I can offer you individual, couple’s and family counselling. Whether it’s addiction based issues, such as substance use, gambling and sex, or emotional issues from our journey as young children, many of these issues can be concurrent with mental health issues such as anxiety, depression, OCD and BPD. Any one or a combination of these can keep us from finding our authentic selves. Through therapy, you can have the chance to be heard, believed and empowered. These are key a to our mental, physical, emotional and spiritual recovery as individuals and together."

"Hello! I enjoy working with people as they navigate all types of sexual issues, including physical changes, relationship concerns, sexual shame or guilt, and challenges with arousal, orgasm, and desire. I also believe in a holistic view of sexuality. Sexual issues rarely happen in a vacuum, and are connected to our lives and relationships in various ways. Our work together may include dealing with problems that we may consider outside the realm of sexuality, and I welcome those conversations as well. "

"I have the privilege of helping clients with a wide range of issues, including mood disorders, panic disorders, trauma, grief, shame, self-esteem, and more. Specifically, I am passionate about helping people with issues of sexuality, sexual dysfunction, sexual trauma, and gender issues. I am passionate about working with the LGBTQ+ communities.

Therapy will allow you to process your emotions and experiences, work through your problems, be attentively heard, and work towards the goals that you set."

"I provide warm, heart-connected and empathetic counselling, coaching, mediation and hypnotherapy services to individuals, couples and families. I concentrate on "wholistic" healing and empowerment rather than on being clinical and "helping". Basically, I form what I call a "Healing Partnership" with the people who come for my services. I tend to be quite eclectic and bring a wide range of skills, techniques, modalities and wisdom to each counselling interaction. Please contact me to enhance your life and to make the most of each moment. My favourite slogan is: "Listening well is the most eloquent sign of caring.""

"My goal is to work collaboratively with you based on your specific goals and needs with an emphasis on building a strong therapeutic relationship and creating a safe environment.

My therapeutic approach is integrative to best meet your needs. I draw upon various approaches, such as EMDR, Narrative, Solution Focused, DBT, Interpersonal Psychotherapy, Ego-State Therapy and other trauma-focused interventions."

"If you come to see me for therapy I think you will find me kind and patient. I will listen very closely to understand what brings you to therapy and what you want to be different. I will tailor my approach to suit you and your goals. I have evidence that people who come to me for therapy make significant changes, and feel satisfied with their relationship with me. The amount of time we work together can be shorter or longer depending on what your goals are."

"I have a strong passion to help people explore their motivations, increase their awareness and overall levels of focus, attention, and concentration. Although I have a special interest in working with elite athletes, I believe that a strengths-based approach rooted in the priniciples of high-performance are directly applicable to all of us in our daily lives. Whether one is working in a demanding profession, an amateur athlete, or any individual desiring to make a behavioural change -- there is limitless potential in all to self-examine, focus on what is truly important, and live meaningful lives in guided by personal values."
