Do you find yourself caught in cycles of anxiety, depression, or emotional overwhelm—where even basic tasks feel draining, and it's hard to access a clear sense of self? Do you feel lost, burned out, or like you're just going through the motions? Or maybe you’re navigating relationship stress—feeling stuck in arguments, emotionally distant, or unsure if you can repair what feels broken. Whether the struggle is internal or relational, many people are quietly carrying pain while wondering if things could be different. I offer mind-body psychotherapy to support individuals and couples in creating lasting, meaningful change.
We specialize in mind-body (holistic) approaches. Using EMDR, IFS, CBT, DBT, somatic practices, mindfulness, and the Gottman Method, we help you heal trauma, process grief, manage overwhelming emotions, build healthy habits, cope with change, strengthen self-worth—and deepen trust, intimacy, and connection in relationships.
I bring experience from CAMH, Women’s College Hospital, and private practice to help individuals and couples heal in a space of compassion, feel safe and understood, and move toward thriving—living with deeper fulfillment, meaningful connection, and purpose.

We work with clients facing trauma, anxiety, depression, addiction, grief, change, low-self worth, and relationship struggles. Early sessions focus on where you're stuck, building awareness and understanding. We then create a personalized, integrative plan with education, tools, and support for healing, growth, and connection. Many begin to feel relief after the first few sessions.
