Therapists in L7L

Are you feeling weighed down by life’s challenges? Trying to navigate your racial identity or BIPOC experiences? Have you or a loved one had a recent serious illness diagnosis or experiencing grief or loss? Or are you finding it challenging to reach out for support as a male when society has told you to always remain stoic? Welcome to the first step in exploring and creating change in your life. I know that searching for support that fits your needs can be challenging, but I am proud of you to have made it here, and I am honoured that I can possibly work with you to support you in creating that change!

I am a Clinical, Health, and Rehabilitation Psychologist. I have a warm, and compassionate style, to help people succeed in making healthy changes and realize their potential. I offer evidence-based assessment and treatment services to help people struggling with sleep disorders, obesity/weight management, chronic pain, and related mental health issues. I also help people adjust to new, or ongoing health or medical problems (e.g., diabetes; heart disease; cancer). These problems impact the quality of peoples' lives. I work collaboratively with my clients, and their supportive family members, to help them to maximize their health and well-being.

Welcome! It takes courage and strength to reach out, and I am so glad that you're here. I am passionate about building a secure, and supportive relationship where you feel safe to identify and explore experiences and core beliefs that may have you feeling 'stuck' in life. I have an eclectic and engaging approach that honours you as the expert in your own life, and as such, focuses on creating an individualized treatment plan. We will utilize modalities (such as IFS and Brainspotting) that empower you to identify and achieve your healing goals, increase your self-awareness, and ultimately support you in overcoming life’s challenges.

Are you navigating the aftermath of toxic relationships or trying to heal from past traumas? Maybe you are noticing unhealthy patterns? Are you saying sorry too much, feel like its unfair, and don't know how to stop? This can cause low self-esteem, hard time trusting others, and people-pleasing. The overthinking, feeling on edge, anxiousness, can be exhausting. Together, let's explore and process your experiences, develop healthier relationship patterns, and help you regain a sense of inner peace. Let's work on what is bothering you. You no longer have to keep it in or deal with it alone.

Do you struggle with thoughts of abandonment? Do you struggle with knowing who you are? Or perhaps you experience challenges in managing and resolving conflict? Maybe as of late, it even feels impossible to get on the same page as your loved ones? Relationships can be the most meaningful and amongst the most challenging parts of life. We can have several people around us but still experience loneliness, loss and disconnection.

We are all evolving! People usually come to see me because a crisis has happened. The origin of the word crisis means turning point. If you are experiencing a turning point in your life I can help you navigate. Sometimes when a crisis hits we find it hard to process what is happening because we are full of the emotional and mental confusion. Therapy helps to unravel the confusion so you can awaken to the awareness that comes with the turning point. Growing in awareness can create a whole new perspective.
