Therapists in Vaughan, ON

I am a registered psychotherapist and also a registered art psychotherapist. I am located in Vaughan, ON and offer therapy who have mental health challenges like anxiety and depression. I believe that my clients have their individual and unique needs, and each person should be treated based on their specific challenges. I offer therapy sessions in a safe, confidential and non-judgemental space and I love seeing them feel better and leaving my room with good coping skills and ideas that can help them improve their mental health challenges.

My therapeutic orientation is primarily cognitive behavioural. My approach to therapy is collaborative and supportive, with a focus on creating a safe environment for therapeutic change and combining client strengths with evidence-based treatment principles. Specifically, I specialize in cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), dialectical behaviour therapy (DBT), motivational interviewing (MI), and mindfulness and acceptance-based treatment approaches (MBCT, ACT).

To seek support in overcoming life’s challenges is an act of courage. You may be seeking practical strategies in order to overcome symptoms of anxiety, depression, or trauma. Or, you may be looking for a safe space and support in managing stress, cope with the demands of life, and navigate difficulties in relationships with other people. I have helped many clients to grow, develop insights, learn new tools, and make strides toward their goals. I would be happy to be a support to you in overcoming the struggles that are holding you back.

***ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS: IN-PERSON & PHONE/VIDEO*** We believe that there is good in every person, and hope in every situation. We have helped individuals, couples, and families heal, grow, and connect. As relational therapists, we appreciate the impact that our relationships have on our well-being. We do not see clients as having something wrong with their minds that necessarily needs to be fixed. Rather, we see our clients as unique individuals, each with their own stories and perspectives, embedded in important relationships and contexts that impact them. We see strengths and we see hope, even when it feels like there is none.

I’m a Clinical Psychologist, but you might also call me an empowering mentor. I help people who wish they could be proud of themselves but feel embarrassed about their past, their situation or their personality. I guide them so that they can transform the way they see themselves and change some behaviours to become more comfortable in their own skin and work towards achieving their potential. I know from my own path of personal healing and growth that with a strong motivation to change and a good therapist you can go from where you are to where you want to be.

With mental health and addiction there comes this terrible feeling of powerlessness, shame and loss of control. Sometimes reaching out for help seems like too much. But when you do reach out, you will know what it's like to recover and the tremendous hope it brings. The strength you didn't know you had will appear and you will feel whole again - and in control. I would like to help you find that way forward.

Together we work to build your confidence, help you trust your intuition and develop tools to live a joyful and effective life.

What if your or your partner’s anger is actually a desire for a deeper connection? It’s a paradox that angry reactions push our partners/family/friends away when what we need is closeness. Hurt or fear could be behind anger. Or perhaps underlying depression, anxiety or trauma. Anger could be expressed harshly, silently or many ways in between; either way it builds walls. Whatever stands in the way of better connections can be uprooted and healed. Negative emotions and walls of anger don’t have to remain. You can overcome them and build the relationships you have longed for.
