Therapists in M4W
Relationships can be deeply meaningful, but they can also feel challenging, emotionally disconnected, or stuck at times. I support heterosexual and LGBTQ+ couples and individuals with communication, emotional distance, anxiety, jealousy, intimacy, sex, trauma, household load, and unresolved issues. Whether you're hoping to reconnect with your partner, strengthen your communication, rebuild trust, navigate polyamory and ENM, or gain a deeper understanding of yourself and your relationships, I offer a supportive space to help you move toward greater connection, healing, and fulfillment, while embracing the messy parts of being human.

Have you experienced a loss in your life? Any type of loss can be painful, isolating, life changing, and sometimes confusing. Or maybe you've experienced a life transition. Life transitions can include starting a new job, moving to a new country, starting a new relationship, or a loved one becoming ill. Life transitions can leave you feeling stuck, anxious, depressed, angry, or directionless. Even joyous transitions can be impactful in unexpected ways. These feelings are very normal, and a way of our bodies telling us that we’re not okay. What we often need during these times is a space to heal. Healing starts from feeling safe.

Are you struggling with feelings of anxiety, stress or lack of motivation? Are you feeling burnout by work/academic pressures? Are you feeling overwhelmed and disconnected, seeking a deeper understanding of your emotions and behaviours. I understand how challenging it can be to face anxiety, depression, or self-esteem issues, especially when compounded by burnout or work/academic stress. If you’re feeling stuck or isolated, lacking motivation, or feeling disconnected, know that you don’t have to navigate this journey alone. Together we will work to move you towards a meaningful, fulfilled life, whatever that looks like to you!

You feel like you are constantly on edge, carrying more than anyone should—trauma, PTSD, grief, or the heavy weight of supporting a loved one with dementia or cognitive impairment, while facing burnout, vicarious trauma, or relentless stress as a caregiver, first responder, or healthcare professional. You may be struggling with loss, family conflict, or relationship challenges that make each day feel overwhelming. I work with adults in a trauma-informed, culturally-inclusive space where the depth of your experiences is fully seen, your struggles understood, and your story truly matters.

Are you trying to get back with your girlfriend? Did you do something that got you dumped, and you don't know why you did it? Did you do everything for her and got nothing back?

Do I watch too much porn? What should I do? Are you also lost in life? You want to have a meaningful career, doing the things you love, but why can't I get out off the couch?

As a psychologist, I work with change. Change may involve shifts in awareness, attitude, behaviour, goals, acceptance, or coping strategies that will enhance your quality of life and well-being. Many obstacles can prevent us from living a satisfying life. These could be a history of trauma, invalidating relationships, habits that no longer serve us, or environments that may hinder our psychological growth. I can help you identify obstacles to your quality of life, develop strategies to tackle them, and set goals to increase and maintain your well-being.

Life can hand us twists and turns we don't expect or want. We can react in ways we don't understand and wish we could change. We wonder what it all means and how to find hope.
As a Registered Psychotherapist and Certified Psychospiritual Therapist, I help with life's harder passages — grief, loss, and major transitions — the moments that ask who we are and what matters. Psychospiritual therapy speaks not to a particular belief but to how we answer 'why?' — especially in times of loss and change.
