Cognitive Behavioural (CBT) Therapists in M6S

We all deserve unwavering support and empathy throughout our life's journey. Facing life's challenges, be it transitions, emotional lows, stressors, or grief, is part of our shared human experience. My therapeutic approach is grounded in compassion and sincere curiosity. I create a nurturing space for individuals to freely share their unique narratives, fostering a secure environment where thoughts and emotions can be openly expressed.

Life can feel overwhelming at times. You may find that you’re simply going through the motions, questioning whether you'll ever be able to feel peace and joy, or wondering whether your relationships will ever become healthy and fulfilling. I’m here to help. As a therapist, I specialize in working with individuals who are experiencing difficulty with: relationships, healthy-communication, codependency, self-esteem concerns, self-worth, depression, grief/loss, anxiety, self-acceptance, life transitions, and parenting.

Feeling stressed, stuck, unfulfilled or unmotivated can be exhausting. When anxiety, depression, self-doubt or relationship difficulties overwhelm you, it can sometimes feel like things will never get better. If you've been working hard to move past your struggles yet still aren't seeing the results you want, partnering with a skilled therapist can help. Whether your difficulties are recent or have persisted for some time, therapy can bring a new perspective to life's challenges and help you create the changes you want to see. Most of us benefit from added support during times of difficulty or major life transitions.

Is the anxiety and stress you are feeling disrupting the balance in your life? Are you feeling lost and alone? Do you need a safe space to express yourself? I understand that life can sometimes be overwhelming and you want to feel better. Together, we will make that happen. My approach is evidence-based and collaborative to meet the unique need of my clients. Specific modalities I use include Cognitive Behavioural, Solution Focused, Mindfulness Based, Compassion and Attachment Focused.

In the busy, hectic and somewhat nonsensical world of today, you can feel lost, confused, or stuck. Do you find life's struggles, work or tangled relationships make you feel stuck? It is in our nature to want to improve, to heal and move forward and upward. We are wired to survive. As Rumi says, "what you are seeking, you already are." As your therapist, I believe that you have all the survival tools that you require to reshape your life the way you want it to be. In our work together, we will tap into your strengths and together we will look for options that fit best for you and your goals.

Do you have negative thoughts and core beliefs that you’re not good enough, smart enough or worthy of unconditional love, success and joy? Are you having difficulty waking up in the morning, lack motivation or can’t fall asleep at night because your mind keeps spinning around in circles? Are you experiencing low mood, anxiety, stress or have had some difficult experiences in life that are keeping you stuck? You’ve acquired many strengths and coping skills but there’s still something holding you back from being the person you can and want to be. If that’s what brought you here, I can help.

They say our greatest weakness lies in giving up! We have all been there. I decided that if life was going to be difficult, I would become its greatest “warrior” and teach others to do the same. Too often we use our armour to hide our inner selves, rather than see it as our strength which only comes from taking a risk, facing our fears, taking a step forward, and learning that every battle is won with wisdom. I am here to empower you to take that chance on yourself — your mind is a powerful force, but you are its master!

Sometimes life gets hard and our inner experience becomes heavy, overwhelming or just plain confusing. Like many others, you may long to feel light again or reconnect with who you once were. As a Registered Psychotherapist (qualifying), I believe the process of psychotherapy helps you feel less alone, less burdened and more understood. I recognize that it takes courage to take that first step in the healing journey and thus, I believe in meeting you wherever you are at. My experience comes from working with individuals living with grief and loss, trauma, substance use concerns, mood issues, and general feelings of being “stuck."
