Therapists in M5G

I provide psychotherapy and counselling to clients who struggle with anxiety and depression which can often be a result of unresolved past trauma, relationship or work stress and confidence issues. Are you a highly achieving individual who struggles with self esteem? Does this affect your work performance, interpersonal relationships and ultimately takes away from your ability to enjoy life? If so, we will work together to help you understand yourself on a deeper level, change unhelpful thinking patterns, identify strengths, build coping skills and move towards professional and personal success.

I am committed to making your fertility experience better. Going through this journey does not need to be so painful. In my practice, I incorporate mind-body techniques that supports and inspire women, men and couples struggling with infertility. I developed the Mind-Body Fertility Program at Mt. Sinai Hospital (CFRH). This 6 week program is a mindfulness based stress reduction group geared to those who are dealing with infertility.

I am a registered Clinical and Counseling Psychologist in Ontario with expertise in individual and couple therapy. My approach to psychotherapy is client-centered. Below I list the therapy approaches I have substantial training in. I always start off with getting a good understanding of the issues a client is dealing with and where they are coming from before collaboratively developing a treatment plan.

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.

We all have different backgrounds and journeys that lead us to crossroads in life; some of us are hoping for relief, while others are searching for growth. When I get calls from clients looking for help, they don’t ask me what modality I use, instead they want to know who I am. Therapy is more about the relationship than the method, and this has been proven by research. I will apply my knowledge and expertise to help you navigate your psychological, emotional and relational issues with care. I have been helping people for over a decade in various capacities. We all have untapped resources and strengths waiting to be discovered.

Connection to self and others gives life meaning. It can be difficult to feel connected when we feel depressed, isolated and disconnected or unsatisfied in our relationships.
