Therapists in M1G

The decision to begin therapy can be an unnerving experience, and the first step can be daunting, to say the least. Therapy can be part of a transformative journey of inner exploration to gain insight into your thoughts, emotions, past experiences and relationship dynamics. Our goal in working together is to facilitate the development of more self-compassion, flexibility in your coping strategies and empowerment to abide by your personal values and your true self. I desire to help clients successfully navigate life’s many challenges through an understanding of themselves, recognizing their strengths and learning new skills.

Currently, I provide therapy for teens, adolescents and adults who struggle with anxiety, depression, suicidal ideations and overall emotion regulation concerns in both community and hospital settings. Whether these concerns are intensified due to school, life transitions, interpersonal conflict, or loss, I am looking forward to collaboratively working with my clients to alleviate some of their burdens. My approach is solution focused and short term especially for my teen and adolescent clients who are trying to keep up with the demands of school and work.

Throughout life's journey we all face challenges of some sort. We all have our own stories and experiences that contribute to who we are and how we face adversity. When those difficulties feel like they are too overwhelming to manage, its OK to reach out for help. Whether you are feeling like life is too much, dealing with addictions issues, or are challenged with a diagnosis of a mental illness. Every person that I have the honour of traveling with on their journey has the ability to face the struggles ahead of them.

Every individual I have the opportunity to meet carriers with them a collection of unique experiences, thoughts, beliefs, values and goals. As humans, we all have periods in our lives when we think, “things are not how they should or ought to be” and this may lead us to a place where we may not be feeling like ourselves. I genuinely believe that you, as a client, are the expert at your own life, but sometimes, even experts can use a little fine tuning- this is one of the functions of therapy! I promise to provide you with the highest quality service that it tailored to your specific needs.

With the fast pace and challenges of life. You do not have to face them alone. Sometimes you need a helping hand and a friendly ear to talk to. It's my passion to help people. I offer counselling and psychotherapy for individuals, couples and families. I work with clients to improve their resilience, and uncover their strengths using a client centered approach and different modalities to meet needs .

Sometimes reaching out for support during a stressful or challenging time can feel difficult or even overwhelming. My goal is to create a supportive and safe space for meaningful and insightful conversations with my clients.

Together we can work through challenges, set healthy goals, develop effective coping strategies, and explore new pathways towards becoming your best self.

"Life is amazing. And then it’s awful. And then it's amazing again. And in between the amazing and awful it’s ordinary and mundane and routine. Breathe in the amazing, hold on through the awful, and relax and exhale during the ordinary. That’s just living heartbreaking, soul-healing, amazing, awful, ordinary life. And it’s breathtakingly beautiful." L.R Knost

Being a young adult is full of challenges, from managing academics and relationships, to large lifestyle changes and starting in the workforce. These challenges can have both an emotional and practical toll on our lives, often leaving us feeling sad or anxious. I work primarily with young adults who find their mood and emotions interfering with their goals and lifestyle. Together, we will work to create a safe environment, where you feel empowered to discuss, process, and problem solve concerns surrounding relationships, trauma, identity, grief, or other troubling experiences.
