Women's Issues Therapists in M4Y

Imagine a space where you feel seen, heard, and believed. Where feelings of anxiety, overwhelm, or uncertainty have their time to be felt, understood, and processed. Life can be a lot at times, taking next steps can be challenging. The courage you bring to being here is your first! Welcome to my space. Here we create a welcoming, supportive, and empathic environment. I offer a mindful, trauma-informed, integrated approach to healing anxiety, trauma, and the challenge of life transitions. I walk alongside my clients to nurture self-awareness and acceptance of all aspects of Self.

Taking new clients for evenings and weekends! As a therapist, I treat adults seeking support with their sexual orientation or gender identity, along with the challenges of coming out. I also treat symptoms such as anxiety, and depression, or are seeking assistance in family conflicts. As a member of the WPATH, I can offer letters for adults seeking gender-affirming care services that require a therapist's letter. Lastly, those who come to see me want to look deep into themselves, and set goals to parse through their internal judgments to see how our negative experiences with others and society have impacted our own self-esteem.

I see people with a wide array of concerns, who may be experiencing symptoms related to a mental health concern, have history of childhood or adulthood trauma, experiencing relationship issues, low self-esteem, feeling overwhelmed or stressed in their lives, experiencing grief & loss, infertility, and concerns related to sexuality, gender and sexual orientation. I work from a relational-cultural approach, also incorporating elements of Sensorimotor Psychotherapy (body-oriented), Emotion-Focused Therapy, Internal Family Systems Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Psychodynamic Therapy, and EMDR.

It is hard to be human these days between the daily traumas of colonial-capitalist culture & the intergenerational wounds that we endure from dysfunctional family patterns of relating. I call what we do in therapy a collaborative spiritual workout where we put our heads & hearts together to better understand your problems & find different, more expansive ways of navigating them. We talk about your problems, your feelings, we explore solutions, we celebrate your wins, and we look at how your problems show up & play out in our relationship. Brave conversations allow us to build relational safety, one step and one session at a time.

My practice is dedicated to providing you with support to help navigate life challenges, achieve meaningful change, and boost personal growth. My clients come from various cultural backgrounds and often deal with a range of concerns including those related to anxiety, trauma, depression, life transitions, and identity development. We work together to address distress, improve relationships, and achieve personal growth. I hold my clients as experts in their life and paired with my professional expertise, believe we can alleviate distress and meet our goals.

Sometimes everything can feel like too much. How do we carry everything that’s happened to us and keep going? How do we process who we were and what we’ve experienced at the same time that we’re trying to grow towards the future? I will help you hold it all as we work through things. My approach is guided by you: the client. Together we will co-create a space that feels safe and expansive, for you to explore at your own pace.

We are living in difficult times. Many people today are feeling alienated from themselves and others, feeling anxious or depressed. Some are feeling little or nothing; others are overwhelmed, having difficulties with relationships, or they're confused about their direction in life. Wherever you are, I will meet you there with kind attention and encouragement, and together we will unravel your tensions and discover how to help you find your inner strength and resourcefulness. I have been practising as a Registered Social Worker/Psychotherapist for over 20 years and have helped many people find greater health and fulfillment in life.

We all have our own histories and desires for our futures. At times these personal narratives can feel like a resource and at other times a hindrance. Sometimes we feel like we’re stuck or are moving backwards when we want to go forwards. How do we stay present in our day-to-day lives when we are visited by the voices of the past or images of the future? How do we find and listen to the voice of strength, wisdom and resiliency that lives in each one of us, when that voice seems to be silent? I don’t offer pat answers, but instead offer space and guidance to help you to deeply explore the issues and questions that want to explore.

Every person who enters therapy is capable of achieving what they are seeking. By evaluating one’s lifestyle, habits, and relationships you can achieve the self-awareness needed to understand how to make changes and truly recognize your inner potential.
