Depression Therapists in N2G

I enjoy working with individuals, couples, and families who want to work on improving their situation, learning about themselves, their interactions with others, and finding healthier ways to live. I see clients for short-term and longer-term therapy.

I am an ADHD/Autism specialized Psychotherapist/Coach as well as an Asst. Adj. Clinical Psych & Neuroscience Professor. Myself and the other practitioners at The ADHD & Spectrum Centre offer in-person services in Guelph/Ottawa and virtual services across Canada and internationally. I love working with families, individuals, and couples seeking to understand ADHD & ASD in their lives, and working to master everything from organization to impulse control. My own diagnoses of Autism & ADHD help me fight for my clients every day and have equipped me with a diverse set of strategies in my toolkit that are personalized for each client.

I believe we are all wired towards resilience, healing, and connection and I'm here to support you in working towards living a full and authentic life. In my work as a psychotherapist, I provide a warm, safe, and accepting environment. I have many years of experience living and working internationally and I incorporate an anti-oppressive framework in all aspects of therapy. Given this background, I welcome all types of diversity and am passionate about working with you as an individual, holding the unique complexities of your experience, your situation, and your goals with care and compassion.

Welcome to Compassionate Counseling, where life balance begins. Are you feeling overwhelmed by emotional/mental/physical pain? Whether you're recovering from illness, treatment, surgery, or physical rehabilitation, I understand the challenges involved. With 17 years of experience as a neurofunctional physical therapist, I've aided individuals in various recoveries: work injuries, post-concussion, cancer, diabetes, Parkinson's, ALS, MS, and life-altering surgeries. As a psychotherapist, I recognize the critical role of the mind-body connection in the recovery process.

Recent years have not been kind to our mental health. As we come out of this pandemic, it is natural to feel stuck, overwhelmed, or even inadequate compared to those who seem to be moving forward with ease. As a result, you may be questioning your level of connection in your relationships and home-life, perhaps your ability as a parent. Are you yearning for change but feel unable to find the motivation to initiate a plan of action? Are you wishing to be the source of support that your loved ones need but lack direction for how to fulfill this role as a parent or caregiver?

Navigating the perinatal period can be both exciting and challenging. During this time, it's common to experience a wide range of emotions and adjustments. From the anticipation of a new arrival to the physical and emotional changes, the perinatal period is a unique and transformative journey. As you prepare to welcome your child, it's important to prioritize your mental well-being. Understanding the psychological aspects of this phase can help in coping with the changes and seeking support when needed. I believe in building a lasting connection with a therapist to support you through this life-changing process.

Sometimes the ups and downs of life can get the best of us. Complicated relationships and unexpected changes can take away our sense of control. Misunderstandings can lead us to questioning our competency. Are you stuck in repeated patterns of doing the same thing and expecting a different outcome, only to feel disappointed? Psychotherapy can be anchoring. With guidance and support you can begin a journey of self-discovery to explore the connection between your inner world and day-to-day life and move toward a more balanced and hopeful future. While finding a therapist can be difficult, you have taken the first step.

Do you find yourself surrounded by big personalities; perhaps within your family, friends or co-workers, that you often feel your voice is overshadowed? Are you the therapist, the mediator, or the advice giver for your friends and family? Do you often find yourself being the one that people rely on but you don’t quite feel the same support is reciprocated for yourself leaving you wondering “when will it ever be my turn?” Do you ever have moments where you’re by yourself driving and you notice how tight your jaw is, or maybe you wonder to yourself “how long have I been holding my breath for”

Feeling you are having difficulty identifying, dealing, or resolving issues of today. These issues can plague and disable our emotions and set us on a path full of fear, uncertainty, and a negative outcome. I am offering my services providing individual therapy and couples therapy. To make my services accessible to you both virtual and outdoor sessions are available. To answer any questions or concerns please contact me to arrange a free 15 minute telephone consultation. We will discuss the best approach to support you on a path towards meeting your needs and achieving your goals. I am a CRPO approved clinical supervisor.

Are you someone who is craving more compassion, curiosity, and clarity in your life? My goal is to help clients build self-awareness and reclaim old narratives that no longer serve them. I believe we are all hardwired for healing and connection and are deserving of support. Much of my experience lies in supporting folks who are experiencing anxiety, emotional challenges, trauma, and relationship concerns. I support folks of all ages and hold a special interest in working with young adults who are experiencing anxiety, navigating life transitions, and exploring who they are.

In-Person & Virtual. Online Booking. Tired of feeling this way? Do you find yourself stuck in the same pattern? Want to do more than just sit with it? I can help you! You do the work & show up & we can get you where you want to be. No more pain, fear or frustration. A plan of action and forward movement. Relationship issues? No problem. Emotions out of control? I got you. Reactions out of proportion? No sweat. WE got this! Together we can make real change for YOU!

Relationships often attract us with their promise of heaven, but can quickly end up feeling like hell. Emotional distance, loneliness, escalating fights, affairs, and addictions may leave you wondering what happened to the bright future you once envisioned with your partner. If this sounds like your marriage or relationship, know that you can come back from the brink. Relationship troubles can be confusing and stressful, but couples counselling can help you and your partner heal from past emotional injuries, rebuild a sense of closeness, and kick start communication on gridlocked issues.

My practice is grounded in self-exploration, relationships, and discovering personal meaning. I work with people who want to better understand themselves and make sense of their experiences. It’s hard to understand why we can’t break free from the patterns that keep us stuck. These patterns can make it hard to feel safe and connected to the people who matter most. It might leave you feeling overwhelmed and unable to make a move to change things. Or you might be feeling disconnected from your self. With awareness and compassion, we can better recognize what’s holding you back and explore strategies that lead to meaningful change.
