You may already understand your patterns. You can explain why you react the way you do, but insight hasn’t changed the cycle. In relationships, anxiety, self-criticism, or habits, the same reactions keep repeating. Therapy can help you work directly with the deeper patterns underneath those cycles. I work primarily from an Internal Family Systems (IFS) lens. IFS understands the mind as made up of different parts—one that wants to stop drinking, another that reaches for the bottle; one that craves connection, another that shuts people out.

Many things affect us deeply in our busy lives. Yet we find ourselves unable, unwilling, or reluctant to talk our issues through with family, friends or physician. Psychotherapy sessions with me by Zoom, are focused, strategic, and personalized to your needs. I have provided individual and family psychotherapy/counseling in Toronto for over twenty years. Book one session a series, or intermittently: yours to design. Everyone wants change, but how? I will listen to you. "and the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom” Anais Nin

I offer a nonjudgmental, empathic space for my clients. A space where you, the client, can explore dilemmas, personal issues, thoughts and problems. I work with you supportively to gain insights and feel more solid as you navigate challenges that may come up for you in life. This may mean issues around relationships, work, self actualization, family, identity, a sense of belonging or loneliness. My strengths are compassion and patience. I will help you recognize patterns that may inhibit you from feeling good about yourself and help you to feel freer and have more agency in your life.

Are you feeling stuck, anxious, down or disconnected? Even if you’ve built a successful life, it’s possible to feel weighed down by self-doubt or worry. For 30 years, I’ve helped people get to the roots of what’s holding them back.
One fundamental truth that I have learned over the years is: What we have experienced, we expect. We won’t just focus on surface "fixes" for your symptoms (e.g., social anxiety, traumatic fears, and non-assertiveness); we will work together to understand their root causes and dismantle and heal them so that they can be replaced by new authentic ways of being within yourself, others, and the world.

Are you having trouble meeting high expectations that you've set for yourself? Do you feel like you're under the pressure to live for other people's goals?

It can be very hard to be a young person in today's world, especially as one moves towards greater independence. You may ask yourself: Who am I? Where am I going? Why do I feel so overwhelmed and stressed? How do I deal with these feelings? Is this the right relationship for me? You may feel stuck and unsure about how to move through it. Like so many young people, you may be facing stressors like transitioning to your first job or post-secondary education, living on your own for the first time, or living with anxiety, depression, or unresolved trauma. Counselling can be a space to get to know yourself better and find solid footing.

I help my clients with challenges in their personal, relational and professional roles, using their own strengths, negative thought patterns, and past experiences. I help my clients work through their new roles in life as a parent, partner, etc.
Parents may specifically find our sessions helpful as we discuss the parenting styles, how they bond with the child, and how parenthood has been impacting the partner's dynamic. I also help immigrants and new comers work through their negative feelings such as guilt, sadness, fears and self-doubts; uniquely, adult children who carry a sense of guilt towards their aging parents back home.

Do you feel disconnected from your loved ones? Whether be your child/ teenager, friends or romantic partner? In my sessions, I help my clients reconnect (with self and with others) and find new ways of bonding as they navigate through different stages of life. I specifically help adults navigate friendships and romantic relationships in different stages of life. My extensive training in child psychology has equipped me with scientifically proven interventions to help children navigate through emotions and thoughts while building a positive self image, social skills, and help develop secure attachment styles.

Accepting New Clients! Reaching out for support takes courage. You may be feeling overwhelmed, disconnected from yourself, or tired of carrying things alone. Perhaps old patterns no longer serve you, and you’re longing for more ease, clarity, and self-trust.
I offer a warm, compassionate space where you can arrive just as you are.
Therapy with me is collaborative and grounded in deep presence, curiousity, and respect for your lived experience. Together, we’ll tend to the grief, emotional stress and resistance by building the confidence and inner resources to balance your nervous system and integrate all parts of you with care.

What if your or your partner’s anger is actually a desire for a deeper connection? It’s a paradox that angry reactions push our partners/family/friends away when what we need is closeness. Hurt or fear could be behind anger. Or perhaps underlying depression, anxiety or trauma. Anger could be expressed harshly, silently or many ways in between; either way it builds walls. Whatever stands in the way of better connections can be uprooted and healed. Negative emotions and walls of anger don’t have to remain. You can overcome them and build the relationships you have longed for.

Feeling burnt-out, overwhelmed, stuck, or longing to not have to mask, perform, or filter?
I offer space to show up as you are, messy, complicated, or unsure, & be met with care & authenticity. I often support Queer, NeuroD, & value-driven folks seeking an affirming space aligned with lived experiences.
While I often work with parents (incl. non-gestational) navigating family building, pregnancy, postpartum, & parenting, my practice is not limited to this. I work with exploring identity, relationships, & life transitions, and those seeking to find themselves & move from surviving to living with greater ease, purpose, & connection.

Trauma can profoundly change how we relate to ourselves, others, and the world. You might feel guilty, ashamed or overwhelmed thinking of your past experiences. It’s common to find it hard to trust others and to feel anxious about the safety of the world around you. You may be questioning your identity, feeling disconnected from yourself and pleasure, or overwhelmed by emotions. Despite the challenges you encounter, you deserve to tell your story and my goal is to ensure you feel not only supported but truly understood, acknowledged, and empowered.
