The path to parenthood has not looked like what you expected. Maybe you’re desperate to start your family, but it’s not happening and you’re terrified that parenthood isn’t going to happen for you. Maybe you’ve experienced the devastation of pregnancy loss and are left grieving in isolation, wondering “does this grief even count if it was “just” a miscarriage?”. Or perhaps you want to add to your family, but this time around it just doesn’t seem to be happening. Baby showers are devastating. “Pregnancy” becomes a swear word. Sex is no longer fun, it is simply a method to conceive/means to finally seeing that double pink line…

I have offered services to couples, individuals and family groups for over 20+ years. I believe that couple therapy can help to improve the quality of a relationship by creating new ways of communication and connection which enhances emotional and physical intimacy between partners. Through individual counselling, I believe that each of us can overcome difficulties and struggles to achieve emotional balance and realize the inner strengths we have.

I believe that healing comes from within and that each person is the expert of their own life. Sometimes we may feel lost on the path that we are on or that we may need support from somebody neutral to our situation. I can assist with guiding people to find themselves, explore and overcome life's challenges, and learn more about themselves. Being validated and understood is often lacking in most people's lives and counselling is a great space to express ourselves safely.

We are all doing our best with what we have, and sometimes it can feel like our best isn’t enough. All of us are walking around with some kind of pain, big and small, whether we know it or not. As your therapist, I am happy to work with you to adapt and grow with your trauma, develop coping skills, and help reroute any that may no longer be serving you, as well as building up your feelings of safety, validation, compassion, and care. I work with clients 16+ who are adapting to live with their trauma, experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, or who want to strengthen their sense of self and self-confidence.

Are you wondering if this is menopause? Your body is changing and does not feel like your own. You feel like you’re going crazy or have dementia. Nights are interrupted by waking up drenched in sweat, your brain feels foggy, and your hormones are going haywire like a teenager’s all over again. Vaginal dryness, hot flashes, body aches and other changes you didn’t expect are making daily life hard. If you’ve experienced depression or anxiety before, it feels like you’re sliding back into that dark place. Nobody prepared you for this chaos—and you’re left wondering, is this just my life now?

Therapy shouldn't feel like a chore. While it might sometimes be hard to hear what is discussed in therapy, overall you should leave feeling like you've gained something useful or even transformative. Over time, you should feel you are getting stronger, more resilient and have shed layers of fear and anxiety. Of course this process can be overwhelming at times and you might not always progress on the timeframe that you thought you would, but when therapy goes well, you should feel more settled and more clear about your life. You should gain understanding about yourself and others and have a renewed sense of purpose and passion

You know your child best and when your gut feelings tell you that something is going on with your child, it’s time to act on that hunch. My practice is devoted to art and play-based therapies using evidence-based theories and approaches. Clients work at their own pace to creatively explore, understand their own strengths, and implement learned strategies for managing anxiety, stress, school, social concerns, big emotions, grief, gender/orientation and life transitions. I will gently, creatively and compassionately support and nurture your child to overcome their challenges and find their own path to well-being.

This parenthood thing doesn’t feel like what you were expecting. From conception, through pregnancy, birth, breastfeeding and transitioning to parenthood, you are exhausted to a level you didn’t know was possible. Instead of the joy you expected welcoming a new baby (or two!), you’re overcome with sadness or fear. You's leaking, sore, ‘touched out’. Your body doesn’t feel like it belongs to you anymore. You're overwhelmed and this tiny bundle absorbs all your time and attention. You question "how can I be suffering so badly when I was so excited for parenthood?". You feel like you must be missing something, or defective.

You’ve been under-performing in the bedroom and the doctors aren’t able to help. You find yourself worrying about erections, or how long it will take you to ejaculate. That worry started in the bedroom, but now it’s always there. Maybe you find yourself creating distance from your partner because you’re worried it will happen again. You don’t want to disappoint your partner, but how could they not take it personally? Maybe you avoid dating all together, wondering “who is going to want to be with someone who can’t perform in the bedroom?” You feel like less of a man. You feel like a sexual failure. You think “I must be the only one"

Experiencing a mental health issue is more common than not, particularly regarding careers. When stress affects our ability to function on or off the job, it's time for help. Helping clients work through these challenges and reengage with their lives is what treatment is about. Based on a previous 25+ years as a career responder, I am familiar with stress, trauma, and maintaining balance. I also treat clients who have never worn a uniform. I see therapy goals as holistic and pragmatic by building understanding, strategies, and practices to build relief, resilience, support functioning, and recovery.

Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?
Most Counsellors and Psychotherapists listed in the directory are certified by one of the main professional associations, mainly the Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Association (CCPA), and will have a Certified Canadian Counsellor (CCC) designation with their name. Social Workers listed in the directory must be registered members of the college specific to their province. To be listed in the directory, Psychologists must be registered with the psychological college specific to their province or territory.
Providers whose professional membership or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Given the considerable variation in professional regulation and prerequisites across Canadian provinces, some providers may possess significant professional qualifications without necessarily holding professional memberships or being obliged to acquire them. As a result, they may be selectively included without the "Verified" seal.

What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counsellor?
Psychologists, counsellors, psychotherapists and social workers can all provide counselling or talking therapy and have credentials and supervised, practical experience that enable them to do so in Canada.
Psychologists have a master's and/or doctoral degree and have passed both written and oral exams. Psychologists are able to complete mental health assessments and provide diagnostic information to clients as well as provide counselling therapy or psychotherapy. Counsellors and psychotherapists are expected to have a master's or doctoral degree in counselling psychology, social work, or a related mental health discipline and certification by a professional association, such as the Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Association. Registered Social Workers possess a Bachelor's or Master's degree in Social Work and where possible must be licensed or certified by the provincial government and/or regulatory college.

What type of therapy is right for me?
The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.
How much does therapy cost?
The cost of therapy depends on a number of variables, including location and the therapist’s experience and training. On average, the cost of a therapy session in Canada could be between $100 and $200. If you have insurance, the expense of mental health care is typically lower, but it varies based on your insurance plan details and whether you choose an in-network or out-of-network mental healthcare provider.
What are more affordable or low cost therapy solutions?
Many therapists offer sliding scale payments, usually on a limited number of slots, which consists in an agreement between the therapist and a client to pay a reduced rate. Therapists who provide such arrangements often consider the client's income or ability to pay, but the extent of the discount is ultimately at the therapist's discretion. Furthermore, while group therapy may have different goals and benefits compared to individual therapy, it can be a more affordable solution to address certain types of issues.
If you are struggling to access therapy due to budget constraints, you could also consider public funded mental health services. Some types of outpatient mental health services are covered by Medicare, provided these are performed by a licensed mental health professional in the provinces or territory you reside in and who accepts the assignment.

Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?
Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
Is online therapy a good option?
Therapy conducted online can be just as effective as in-person therapy, as long as there is a strong alliance between the client and the therapist. To find a therapist who provides telehealth services to clients in your area, click “Online Therapy” on the directory homepage and search by your city or town or your postal code.
Are therapy sessions confidential?
Professionals licensed by regulatory colleges and those certified by associations such as the Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Association are obligated to uphold client confidentiality unless there is a legal reason that requires them to disclose information. Confidentiality is a crucial part of the therapeutic relationship and only under specific circumstances, such as when there is the potential or known harm to the client or others, or a court order, will a therapist be obligated to break the agreement. These exceptions to the confidentiality agreement are usually discussed during the initial consultation.
