Therapists in L9C
***ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS: IN-PERSON & PHONE/VIDEO*** We believe that there is good in every person, and hope in every situation. We have helped individuals, couples, and families heal, grow, and connect. As relational therapists, we appreciate the impact that our relationships have on our well-being. We do not see clients as having something wrong with their minds that necessarily needs to be fixed. Rather, we see our clients as unique individuals, each with their own stories and perspectives, embedded in important relationships and contexts that impact them. We see strengths and we see hope, even when it feels like there is none.

Do you feel misunderstood or like you want to escape from painful memories, thoughts, and/or emotions? Do you feel stuck as though you are unable to move forward in life? Do you struggle with people-pleasing, relationship conflict, chronic illness, or feel emotionally disconnected? If any of this applies to you, please know that you are not alone. It is normal to feel overwhelmed, frustrated, and disappointed when life appears to be passing us by and we feel stuck or held back by our past experiences. Having a therapist who provides a trauma-informed and client centred approach is essential in these cases.

I help students, athletes, or folks exploring their identity who might be feeling pressure to figure out their future—their career, relationships, values, and sense of self—while still managing the demands of school, work, athletics, or just life. Maybe you feel like your mind is always racing, you're constantly second-guessing yourself, or you’re not feeling like “you” lately. You might be trying to navigate expectations that don’t quite fit or struggling with questions around identity, belonging, or self-worth.
You don’t have to go through it by yourself!

You may be coming to therapy because you’ve been told you have to, or because life feels stuck after a difficult chapter. My goal is to offer a space where you are seen as a whole person and where accountability and healing can coexist. Therapy does not have to be about being judged or told what is wrong with you. It can be a place to make sense of what has been happening and begin building steadier ways to cope, regulate emotions, and move forward. I work with court-mandated individuals, people navigating behavioural/legal challenges, those involved in the justice system, and their families.

You know that feeling of being "stuck"... stuck in the cycles you repeat in your relationship, career, and life. The problem is, you've tried again and again to change things, and it's not working. Your connection to your partner, maybe your kids, and to yourself continue to struggle. I've been there. The first important way to move forward is to imagine life when these problems are gone. The good news is that whether you are completely ready to dive in, you're coming to the right place.

Hi, I’m Samantha (she/her)! I work with teens, young adults, and parents who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure how to handle everything life is throwing at them.

Now Accepting New Clients! Are you a hyper-independent, overthinking, perfectionistic human who is living in exhaustion and overwhelm? On paper, you’re thriving - but inside, it’s chronic anxiety, executive dysfunction, and emotional whiplash. You're burning out from toxic productivity, cycling between hyperfocus and shutdown, wondering if it’s ADHD or does everyone just feel this way? You beat yourself up for not doing enough, even when you’re dead tired. You tried the s.elf-care checklists-therapy, meds, journaling, yoga but nothing sticks. You know you “should” practice self-love, but your inner critic is so much louder
