I work collaboratively with clients to regain balance in their lives using integrative, evidence-based treatments. I've spent the past 10 years providing group therapy, individual therapy, and psychological assessments to many different populations in a variety of contexts. Therapy can be used in many different ways: to process emotions or trauma, to increase mindfulness and understanding, to learn new skills to cope with challenges, as well as to gain perspective or advice. I often assist clients with treatment planning and helping them to get connected to other professionals and resources.

Welcome! You may be struggling with patterns that keep repeating in relationships, work, or life, despite your best efforts to change. Together, we’ll explore not only what is happening, but why. I listen closely to your “unconscious whispers”—the subtle emotional cues, protective patterns, attachment wounds, and unmet needs that shape how we relate to ourselves and others. I work with family, couples, and adults facing relationship difficulties, attachment injuries, childhood emotional neglect, grief and loss, trauma, family conflict, and recovery from narcissistic/antagonistic relationships.

Humans are social animals; our brains are built for connection. We crave safe relationships to support us to feel, heal, deal, and grow. We all want to be the best version of ourselves, we just may not know what our best self looks like, or, may lack the support and experience required to discover such. When we are supported to identify and address the unmet needs that may block us from feeling like 'our best', we gain a greater sense of self. By understanding the impact of our relationships, attachments, and environments, we are able to truly make sense of the choices we make, and actions we may - or may not - take.

A lot of the folx I see are also a part of the neurodivergent and queer communities.
Hi, I'm Catherine, welcome, bienvenue! Therapy can be a bit scary at first when we're first starting out, or even if we're coming back to explore more of ourselves. If you're looking for someone willing to listen without judgement and is willing to work with you based off your individual needs, we might be good fit! I am a part of the 2SLGBTQI+ community, fluent in French, and I have experience dealing with chronic pain and neurodivergence. It is important for my clients to feel safe, accepted, welcome, and understood. I provide therapy for individuals, couples and families.

Reaching for help is a brave step. Whatever has brought you to this point, has likely taken a toll. Life stresses build up. Unresolved conflicts and traumas keep showing up and cause recurring issues. You notice patterns: the same argument, or same worry, the same relationship dynamics. Previous efforts to fix the problem have only brought temporary relief. You are tired of feeling this way, of fighting, of feeling alone... You want someone to help you get to the root of the issue and bring some lasting change and resolution. It's my honor to walk alongside you.

Whatever has brought you to this point has taken a toll. Life feels overwhelming, especially while others are leaning on you. Family issues, personal burdens, and troubles in the outside world pile up. It feels like too much. You’re feeling alone, and you’re not sure how you’re going to make it through. You're looking for rest and support, for resolution, and for a different way of managing everything.

Winnipeg, MB R3G
As a queer and ADHD therapist myself, I'm especially grateful to support those within my community.
Have you been feeling stuck in the same painful patterns with yourself and in relationships with others? When you hear the term “self-love” does part of you cringe? Does another part of you wonder what liking yourself more might feel like? If you answered yes to any of these questions, I just might be the therapist for you. Hi, I'm Jenna (she/her). I tend to be great fit for adults navigating anxiety, depression, problematic substance use and other addictions or compulsions. I see these symptoms as our brains' brilliant solutions to other problems, which often just need some compassionate updating in adulthood.

Do you struggle with intrusive thoughts, images, impulses or urges that cause you anxiety? Are you confined to a personal prison due to your compulsions? You keep having these thoughts and feelings that feel completely irrational, but you can't help but keep doubting yourself? It feels so real, and you wish you could just find that certainty that you're desperate for. You’re not alone. Obsessive compulsive disorder can be incredibly debilitating, but there is hope. You can take back control of your life, and I can help you get there.
