Therapists in Kanata, ON

I am accepting new clients for Safe and Sound Protocol and Integrated Listening Systems (Focus) programs ONLY. My areas of experience for individual and relationship counselling are neurodiversity, asexuality and aromantic, trauma presentations, polyamory or non-monogamy, and kink. I am a trauma-informed neurodivergent social worker who decolonizes their practice. I have been working in social work practicing psychotherapy for 9 years, with almost 3 years in private practice. I am a confirmed non-insured health benefits mental health care provider so if you have NIHB, I will directly bill sessions for you.

Hey, so this is a weird process, right? I know finding a therapist can feel daunting. Maybe you’ve never done therapy and you have no idea what to expect. Maybe you’ve tried it before, but you want something different. Maybe you just want something to change, but you’re not sure what. That’s okay; you don’t have to figure it out alone. I love to help people navigate this unique healing process through honesty, authenticity, and non-judgement. We can work together to determine your goals, the changes you may want to make, and the kinds of therapy that might be helpful for you.

*ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS* Ottawa's first licensed, RTT Therapist. As a Clinical Counselling-Hypnotherapist, I help clients who want to gain immediate insights and understanding into issues without spending unnecessary time and money on therapy. It is my mission to guide as many people as possible to reconnect with themselves, take back control, and ignite their conscious evolution. Integrative therapies can also be used in conjunction with any ongoing treatment plan.

Sometimes life can become riddled with difficulties, and we may need a guiding hand to help diffuse our troubles and rediscover our deepest personal meanings and values. As a therapist, I help you face your tough battles whether they stem from the past, present or future. I strive to help you tap into your inner world, and rediscover yourself through your strengths. I understand that painful or stressful situations can leave one feeling out of control, or in chaos. I will support you by hearing your pain, empowering you, and working towards meaningful changes to alleviate that hardship.

Trauma, anxiety, depression, family and relational conflict, anger, sadness, numbness, burnout, relational issues, grief, I am here to meet with you and figure out a path to healing. Sometimes we can feel so stuck in our situation and need to have someone help us navigate it. A new perspective and nonjudgemental space can help us feel more free to reflect on ourselves, how we got to this place in life and allow space to imagine how our life can be more fulfilling and free. I am here to help you process the painful memories and emotions, explore patterns you feel stuck in and find new ways of managing issues in your life.

I firmly believe in the inherent worth and resilience of every individual. My therapeutic style is grounded in creating a non-judgmental space where clients can openly discuss their experiences.
