Therapists in N1G
Hey! I'm so glad you're here. If you are looking for a relaxed, safe environment, and the ability to really connect with another human being, I would love to talk with you! In my approach to therapy, I put you in the expert chair, as someone who knows their life and experience more than I can know. I take a really curious position, asking questions to better understand you and your context. I see every person as having totally unique skills and strengths, and use those to help you navigate this world.

Relationships can be especially challenging when trauma, identity, or non-traditional relationship structures are part of the picture. I work primarily with couples and multiple-partner relationships who feel stuck in painful patterns of repeating the same arguments, feeling disconnected, navigating infidelity, communication breakdowns, intimacy concerns, parenting stress, or the difficult transitions of separation and divorce. I am passionate about supporting clients who are queer, trans, or who otherwise do not find themselves represented in mainstream therapy. All of my work is informed by feminist and harm reduction principles.

Do you find yourself overthinking your emotions, repeating the same patterns in relationships, or feeling disconnected from the person you want to be? Maybe you’re navigating a major life change, feeling overwhelmed by school or work, or simply noticing that something feels “off.” You don’t have to figure it all out on your own.
I work with adolescents, young adults, and adults who are navigating life transitions, relationship challenges, stress, difficult emotions, identity concerns, and periods of feeling stuck or overwhelmed. My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in curiosity rather than judgment.

Effective September 5th, I am welcoming new adult and adolescent (9+) clients. I work with people who are carrying a lot—grief that comes in waves and knocks you down, anxiety that loops and spirals, stress that doesn’t seem to switch off, and emotions that feel too big. Perhaps you're struggling with trying to meet everyone else's needs while ignoring your own or you’re feeling overwhelmed, burnt out, stretched too thin, constantly on edge or just simply not like yourself lately. Together, we can slow things down and focus on strategies that will bring you back into balance again.

Are you tired of pushing through like everything is okay? My clients tend to be autistic and/or ADHD adults, people navigating burnout, individuals living with chronic anxiety, and queer folks who are ready to understand themselves more deeply. If you identify yourself as someone who may look like they're doing fine on the outside, while privately feeling exhausted, overwhelmed, anxious, or disconnected from who you are, we may be able to work together to get a sense of what’s happening and find what actually works for you to help you build a life that feels more sustainable. A life beyond just pushing through.

You might have a growing sense that something isn’t working, even if you can’t fully explain it. You may spend a lot of time thinking things through, trying to understand yourself, your emotions, or your relationships, yet still feel stuck, unsure, or unable to move forward. Perhaps you overthink, struggle to fully express your needs, or carry loneliness, shame, or self-doubt beneath the surface. Part of you wants things to be different, while another part isn’t sure how to get there. In our work, we slow things down, look beneath the surface, and consider ways forward that feel more grounded, more achievable, and more like you.

Do you ever feel stuck in patterns that you know aren’t working, but no matter how hard you try, you can’t seem to shift them?
Maybe you’re spending your days just trying to survive. Maybe your relationship feels like it’s gone from the promise of connection to a place of distance, loneliness, or escalating conflict. You might feel like you're living with a stranger, or worse, like you’ve become a stranger to yourself.
These experiences are disorienting, painful, and confusing, but you don’t have to navigate them alone.

Are you struggling with anxiety, disordered eating, or body image concerns? You may feel overwhelmed, stuck in cycles of self-criticism, comparison, or rigid patterns around food and control.
You might feel disconnected from yourself and unsure how to create change. I offer a compassionate, non-judgmental space to help you build awareness, develop more flexible coping strategies, and improve your relationship with food and your body. Together, we focus on reducing anxiety, building self-trust, and helping you move toward a more balanced, values-driven life.

If you're looking to identify and heal coping patterns—around relationships, boundaries, attachment, work stress, existential questions, or identity—you’re in the right place. I work from a systemic, trauma-informed, climate-aware, polyamory- and queer-friendly lens. I'm mindful of how culture and society shape our mental health, and how therapy is just one part of a broader healing process. Having walked through grief, trauma, and burnout of my own, I come with a lived understanding of some of life's hardest lessons, and I hope that whatever you come to therapy with, I can support meaningful shifts in your life.

You second-guess yourself, struggle to feel “good enough,” and often feel anxious in relationships or social situations. Maybe you’re stuck in overthinking, people-pleasing, guilt, or self-doubt. You’re always fighting that inner voice that points out everything you’re doing wrong, making you feel like you always have something to prove.

Perhaps that you wish you could trust yourself more, use your voice, and feel more connected to yourself or others? Or that you did not have to use so much energy overthinking about the past, future, or reactions of other people? Maybe you wish that you could be more present instead of feeling disconnected? Whether you have struggled since childhood because of trauma or a difficult environment, or whether you have recently begun to encounter anxiety or overthinking in areas like relationships, work, or school, you deserve to connect with support.

Life can be so difficult to navigate when you’re struggling! When we’re not feeling our best, even the smallest tasks or interactions in life, work, parenting or relationships can feel daunting, heavy and hard. Anxiety, anger, burnout, unmanaged ADHD or OCD and low self-confidence can feel as though they’re keeping you from living the life you want to live. You know you want to feel more calm, content, comfortable and confident as you manage decisions, interactions and relationships, but you’re not sure how to get there. The good news is that you’re in the right place, taking the first step, right now.

I offer trauma therapy that can help you address the deep emotional learnings that come from relational trauma and affect you in the present day. That's because trauma can profoundly impact your sense of self, body, and belonging, leaving you with patterns can't seem to change. This is especially true when the trauma happened in relationship: abuse or neglect by a parent, spiritual abuse (often in community), or during a difficult transition to becoming a parent, to name a few. I work with curiosity, gentleness, and humour to uncover the capacity for healing that is already in you. I offer online therapy to adults across Ontario.
