Female Therapists in K2G

Accepting new clients! In person appointments on Friday mornings. EMDR can help you re-process traumatic memories so they aren’t disturbing anymore. Talk therapy can help you learn new ways to understand your feelings. I work with those who have experienced trauma to help them heal and gain a better understanding of how to move forward. I can help you regain your confidence, re-establish connections with yourself and others, and rebuild your sense of safety.

Sometimes we are faced with challenges that can make it hard to live the life we want. In these difficult periods, therapy can provide an opportunity to connect with another person, explore the problems you may be facing, and figure out a path forward that works for you. My priority is creating a safe space between me and my clients, which means I approach every person and problem with respect, compassion, and without judgement. Regardless of how you feel right now, you (yes, you!) have strengths, expertise, and valuable experiences that I’m here to help you unearth, reclaim, or explore.

The journey of life holds many unexpected turns that can often lead to feeling lost, stuck and alone. I am dedicated to providing individuals and couples a safe and supportive space where they can slow down and connect to their internal resources. I believe that with the right support, each person has the capacity to grow and heal. I encourage clients to explore how their life experiences are affecting their current circumstances, with the intention of moving toward a satisfying life with meaningful connections.

Burnout? It is so hard to feel happy and balanced when we’re caught in a people-pleasing merry-go-round and constant anxiety. People-pleasers who experience anxiety can often feel worthless and wonder who they can turn to. I help anxious people-pleasers struggling to manage their time and feel appreciated in their busy lives improve their relationships by finding a better appreciation for themselves. This is done by addressing past traumatic events and relationships and cultivating your strengths! Together, we can hold the space for your pain to open the door to happiness.

How is fear impacting your life? From problems that make you feel paralyzed, to uncomfortable feelings that are difficult to identify, trying to figure it out on your own can be confusing and scary. These feelings can hinder your enjoyment of daily life and future plans. By learning to understand how ADHD, anxiety, or trauma is affecting you, you can begin to see your life in a new way. I offer a nonjudgmental therapeutic lens where you can feel safe to explore your patterns and past. I created Dune Psychotherapy to be a collaborative practice, where we work together to move towards an authentic version of yourself.

Choosing to come for counselling can be an intimidating task but rest assured that I will offer you and your loved ones an environment that is caring, non-judgmental and professional. Together, we will make a plan and set goals to help you get back on track. I offer counselling to children (10 years+), youth, and adults; individually or as a family, in the areas of anxiety, depression, anger, and grief. My areas of focus include mental health, substance misuse, partner violence, parenting, relationship difficulties, work place stress, racialized populations and forensic clientele.

Are you dissatisfied with one (or more) areas of your life? Are you struggling to get through each day? Are you open to learning new skills? If so, counselling with me might be for you. Whether you have difficulty managing your emotions, regularly experience relationship conflict, are overwhelmed by negative thoughts, or are generally unhappy with yourself, counselling can bring to your life new skills and understanding. Empowered by awareness, you will learn to think and behave in ways that help you reach your goals, nurture your relationships, and allow you to experience more joy and happiness in your everyday life.

Accepting new clients. We all struggle at one time or another, facing challenges that make us wonder where to turn. Seeking therapy can be an extremely rewarding experience as you learn to navigate these challenges and uncover your strengths while taking strides towards your ideal self. I work with clients experiencing depression, anxiety, grief, with a specialization in life transitions and perinatal mental health. My approach is empathic, and non-judgemental with a strong client focus. I utilize techniques from positive psychology, narrative therapy, CBT, as well as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy.

Welcoming new clients! I support folks with eating disorders, neurodivergence (ADHD and ASD), relational challenges, developmental trauma/family of origin issues, identity challenges, self-esteem and grief. My intention is to hold a warm and welcoming space for you to present yourself authentically and unapologetically. I know therapy can be vulnerable, uncomfortable and challenging for some. I am here with you every step of the way without judgment, and together, we can collaborate to navigate your goals.

Are you a couple struggling with communicating your needs and resolving conflict in your relationships? Perhaps you’re recovering from infidelity or looking to have a more satisfying sexual life. Do you experience anxiety and stress that impact your self-esteem? Maybe you are in an important transitional time in your life and are looking to make significant shifts that require clarity and a strong sense of self. Or life has thrown you a curve ball and you're unsure of how to adapt. If you are struggling to find meaning and motivation within yourself, your relationship or your family, our team can help.

Asking for help is the bravest step you can take and I want to help you make the most of this courageous step forward. I specialize in adult ADHD and postpartum mood disorders. As a fellow parent (of 3) I know how this time can bring great joy and simultaneously be the cause of overwhelm. If you have ADHD know that it does not define you, but it does impact your brain processes. To be the person deep in your heart, the work starts from the inside out. Together, we'll make sense of your pain, learn transformative skills, improve functioning and self-regulation.

Are you facing grief, anxiety, communication challenges, or difficulty with setting boundaries? Do you find it hard to stick to consistent habits, find fulfilment in your work or relationships, or feel down or stuck often? Maybe some of your goals include processing life's challenges, unpacking your feelings, learning new coping strategies, or having a space in your week to feel heard and take an hour just for you. I walk alongside my clients who are looking to better manage their anxiety, work on self-acceptance, live more authentically and process loss.

I am a Registered Psychotherapist, ADHD coach, mindfulness instructor, and clinical supervisor.

My therapeutic approach combines ACT & CBT-based psychotherapy, mindfulness & self-compassion training, stress management, executive functions skills development, and coaching strategies to facilitate the development of well-being, self-acceptance, supportive inner talk, and in general showing up for yourself and for others.

I completed a Master of Science in Neuroscience and Mental Health from King's College London, and am completing my practicum hours at Yorkville University's MACP program. Understanding the neurobiology of mental health provides a different perspective to my clients. Through that, I can provide multifaceted services to my clients to help engage both physiological and psychological understanding of their mental health. Knowledge is power, and by gaining our power, we begin to heal.

I believe that active listening is at the heart of effective therapy, and I work to help my clients find their own hidden strengths, empowering them to effectively resolve their issues.
