Therapists in M5G
Behind the arguments, silence, or repeated conflicts, there’s usually a longing to feel closer.
Most couples I work with aren’t just fighting about dishes, texts left unread, or who said what. They’re fighting because they feel disconnected. Beneath the surface, there’s often a deeper question:
Do I matter to you?
Can I reach you when I need you?
Are we okay?

Are you struggling with sadness, worry or unwanted thoughts? If you think it's time to talk to someone, psychotherapy can help. Hi, my name is Kate. My therapeutic style is warm, authentic, and compassionate. In session we will move at your pace to create a safe connection. I help people with anxiety, depression and PTSD. I specialize in treating pregnant and postpartum women and offer a gentle treatment for birth trauma. Many of my clients start therapy to address a specific issue and find it helps them in other areas of their lives, like work burnout or family conflict.

In starting therapy or returning to it, you may be seeking someone to talk to, psychological perspectives, tools and resources, and change. You may be struggling with depression, anxiety, or any of the long list of names given to conditions we can struggle with. My approach is client-centered as you are the expert on you, and I prefer to not pathologize and stigmatize. My perspective is that there are causes and contributors to the thoughts, feelings and behaviours which we find most difficult, and which can become traits and labels - and yet also - which can be changed.

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.

You’re overwhelmed by the weight of expectations, whether from society, your relationships, or yourself, and wondering how you ended up at the bottom of your own priority list. I work with women navigating motherhood, identity loss, and perfectionism; individuals struggling in relationships; and those trying to reconnect with who they are after years of people-pleasing or self-doubt.

How do we navigate change? As we’ve all learned in these past years, the ability to navigate change has been uncertain and very tough. But whether it’s a change in your mood, your physical health, your career, your family life and relationships, or struggling through challenges that have been out of your control, it can be a very bewildering, confusing and even scary time. As a therapist, my approach centres your safety and empowering you to uncover your inner abilities and strengths. My role is to walk beside you through the tough challenges and be a guide through – what might feel like – the wilderness of your own emotions.

I believe that everyone can benefit from therapy, and that it should be accessible to all. Starting counselling can be scary, intimidating and overwhelming, and that is okay. At Art of Thriving I seek to create space where we can go on a journey together towards building a stronger relationship with yourself and building towards your goals. I don't believe that there is only one form of therapy that works for everyone. What I seek to do is learn from you, and create an approach around the unique individual that you are. You are the expert of your own reality, and I am here to just assist you in your journey.

I have extensive experience working with adolescent and adult populations transitioning through life stages. I support individuals and families experiencing a range of mental health challenges as I provide a unique perspective on coping with anxiety, navigating relationships, and building resiliency. Using a realistic and non-judgemental approach, I help my clients overcome obstacles and rewrite their own narratives. Making effective change isn't easy but it's never motivated by shame or criticism. I feel this is crucial when working to reduce anxiety, build self-esteem, and overcome addiction.

Life can feel hard some times and I know reaching out for support is an act of self compassion. Welcome. Working with client's interests/comfort I interweave neurobiology, body based (somatic) interventions and expressive arts therapy, as well as ‘talk therapy’. These are engaged through a resilience and trauma informed lens. No creative/ artistic experience necessary, only your curiosity. I both have life and clinical experience with ADHD and learning differences and work with clients who live with ADHD. Particularly late treatment or late diagnosis, and especially where it overlaps with relationships, career and parenting.
