"I am the founder of Haven Psychological Services. We are a small private practice, comprised of a team of very well trained, compassionate associates, dedicated to helping folks lead better, happier, more authentic and fulfilling lives. Using evidence-based interventions, we strive to foster personal growth, helping you achieve your most important goals and enhancing your personal relationships. We are located in a comfortable and inviting office, housed within a beautiful older building on the Stittsville-Kanata border. As a Registered Clinical Psychologist providing psychotherapy and counselling for 18 years, in both Ottawa and Vancouver, I still wake up every day excited about what I do because I've seen how even a bit of therapy can change people's lives in such positive and significant ways. "

"Losses, persistent stresses, and trauma are among the situations in life that may lead us to feel overwhelmed, stuck, and discouraged. It would be my privilege to come alongside you to work towards achieving a more satisfying life, with increased hope, resilience, and success in navigating life's challenges. In my 22 years as a clinician/counselor, I have worked with a wide variety of issues such as depression, anxiety, burnout, trauma, relationship difficulties, and low self-esteem."

"Everybody comes to counselling with a unique issue & unique background, so one style of therapy does not fit everyone. Together we can discover the best approach to bring you back to a happy & productive life. I will simultaneously help you to gain insight into the root of what brings you to therapy, & help you to find your own solutions that best fit your life. I will provide you with coping strategies that you can use anywhere, any time, & teach you skills that you can use to make chages in your day to day life."

"As a person and a counsellor, I believe that everyone, regardless of life circumstances, wants to feel connected and understood. Unfortunately, in today's fast-paced society, often times people do not feel heard or listened to, connected to others, and least of all understood. This being said, I believe that the relationship developed between myself and my client is the most crucial component of counselling. It is my hope that at the end of your sessions, you will develop positive coping strategies while healing unresolved feelings; but above all, that you leave feeling heard, understood and cared for."

"I believe that each and every person has a story to tell and it is important to have someone witness our self-experience as we navigate through it. This helps us to better understand our patterns of being and decide which patterns we would like to hold onto. We explore emotional well being by strengthening and enlivening relationships inside and out of the therapeutic space. I believe that walking beside someone to better understand their experience helps us find direction in our healing journeys."

"Many of us silently cope with difficulties in our lives. But you don't have to. Reaching out to a counsellor for support gives you the opportunity to explore what is holding you back and start improving your quality of life. People have the capacity to make positive changes in their lives with the right support and guidance. With support, you will tap into your strengths, find hope and heal emotional wounds. As a Registered Social Worker providing psychotherapy, I work with individual adults who are experiencing mental health issues, trauma, negative self-esteem, and relationship issues. I offer online therapy."

"As an individual and couple's therapist, my goal is to provide you with a comfortable environment in which to explore your thoughts, feelings, behaviours and personal challenges.
