I know that seeking therapy can at times be difficult and intimidating. It takes courage to explore difficult experiences and emotions. I will always meet you where you are. I strive to provide you with a non-judgmental and compassionate space -- a space that can help you explore and understand yourself, and help you manage your life more effectively. In working together, you will find that my approach to therapy is collaborative, client-centred & trauma-informed. My approach to therapy is grounded in extensive training in Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Somatic/ Mindfulness-based Psychotherapies.

My practice focuses on assisting individuals who are concerned or distressed about their sexual behaviours, interests, or urges and/or those who are concerned about their risk to offend (online or offline) involving a child. Specifically, I focus on helping people with paraphilias (atypical sexual interests) - for example pedophilia, exhibitionism, or voyeurism. Regardless of the path you have taken to seeking out therapy, my goal is to create a safe, comfortable, and non-judgmental space for you to determine how best to move forward.

While we try to cope with life’s challenges as best as possible, sometimes we need extra help to feel better. Seeking professional support is a courageous and admirable decision, and I can’t wait to meet with you and help you through your journey of facing your difficulties and healing! In therapy, I work with adults who are experiencing difficulties related to anxiety, stress, depression, negative emotions, emotion regulation, trauma, personality disorders, relationship difficulties, and self-growth.

My goal is to help my clients arrive at a deeper understanding of their needs and motivations in work and in play, across the full spectrum of their relationships, and amid the confusion and turmoil of challenging situations. This is a process no one should have to go through alone. Having benefited from self-exploration with skillful and empathic mentors, I am privileged to rediscover the essence of this work in every new therapeutic engagement. The uniqueness of each individual calls for a disciplined mutual curiosity that allows for the constant emergence of fresh information and potentially transformative insight.

As a clinician, I maintain a solution-focused approach while incorporating different strategies tailored to each client’s unique needs. These include mindfulness and acceptance-based as well as existential-humanistic therapeutic techniques. This means I believe each individual has the capacity for self-awareness and choice and that I focus on helping each client find meaning in lived experiences. I have experience working with late adolescents to older adults, with both individuals and couples. I primarily work with young adults, who are faced with varying life challenges including, depression, anxiety, stress and psychosis.

Are you an accomplished individual trying to balance the demands of both your work and home life, yet feeling overwhelmed in the process? The pressures to succeed and meet work expectations can create a sense of anxiety, panic, and dread. It can even increase feelings of depression and decrease your self-confidence to manage it all. Unfortunately, this can also impact your ability to be fully present for your loved ones and you may find that your meaningful relationships are beginning to suffer. FFR supports clients in addressing these issues so they can experience more fulfillment in both their personal and professional lives.

I work with individuals and people in all types of relationships. People come to therapy for different reasons. Sometimes it’s about having a non-judgmental space to process feelings, reactions, and ways of moving forward. Sometimes it’s about exploring and changing patterns that aren’t working so well in relationships. Sometimes it’s about being witnessed in something challenging you’ve been through.

As a therapist, my priority is to make you feel 'seen'. Asking for help can feel scary - I do my best to make you feel comfortable and heard as you begin your healing journey. I work with you to become your best self by helping you to feel unstuck, build resilience and gain personal growth. I provide a warm, open and safe space for us to discover what is bothering you, what gives you meaning, and how you'd see yourself living your best life. Together, we explore the ways you've been thinking and behaving that perhaps aren’t working for you anymore, and come up with new ways that'd empower you to live a more fulfilling life.

You want to make changes in your life or relationships and have noticed that there are emotions, thoughts, and behaviors that seem to be difficult to manage and understand on your own. You want to pursue deeper more meaningful connections, to become more effective at managing your mood, to find balance and strengthen your self-esteem, and to understand why certain patterns keep repeating. You may be ready to dive in, or hesitant to begin, but you’ve come to a place of knowing that a step has to be taken to support your journey.

Deciding to seek help is a powerful step toward better mental health. Through my experience working with children, adolescents, adults, and families, I understand that difficulties may arise regardless of one's age or phase of life. From life challenges to transition periods (e.g., changing careers, schools, relationships), to traumatic experiences, it can be difficult to make sense of our selves or our directions. I am proud to support clients from all walks of life (inclusive of all gender identities, sexual orientations, abilities, races, cultures, and relationship types) in achieving their own unique vision of success.

Is online therapy a good option?
Therapy conducted online or over the phone can be just as effective as in-person therapy, as long as there is a strong alliance between the client and the therapist. To find a therapist who provides telehealth services to clients in your area, click “Online Therapy” on the directory homepage and search by your city or town or your postcode.
What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counselor?
Therapists, psychologists, and counselors are all licensed mental health professionals. In Canada, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counselor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counselors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.
What type of therapist is right for me?
Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counselor who can offer short-term, targeted support.
Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?
The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors. Many have been licensed by the country or province where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counseling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.
What type of therapy is right for me?
The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.
Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?
Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
How much does therapy cost?
Some forms of mental health treatment (for example, seeing a psychiatrist, or seeing a psychologist in a government-funded hospital) are free under provincial health plans. Canadians who seek private counseling can typically expect to pay an average of $150 per session, although the actual price generally ranges between $100 and $3200 per session, depending on their location and the type of provider they select. Workplace benefits or private insurance plans often provide an annual counselling allowance, and some therapists offer sliding scale fees to clients who cannot pay full price.
