There’s a lot that holds us back from trying therapy. You may think you need a serious problem to see a therapist. But therapy is for everyone because being human means we experience sadness, grief, anxiety, and moments of overwhelm. The only requirement for therapy is simply being human. You may ask, Why not talk to a friend? Because friends aren’t trained to listen in a way that allows insights to emerge, wounds to open up, and traumas to be released. Therapy offers a different kind of space—one where you’re held with skill, presence, and attunement.

Are you looking to build resilience, confidence, and growth?
Life can feel overwhelming, especially when you’re navigating anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, low self-esteem, or major life changes. You may also be carrying the impact of neurodivergence, cultural identity, or the challenges of starting over in a new country.
I offer a compassionate, non-judgmental space for neurodivergent individuals, BIPOC clients, and newcomers to Canada. Together, we’ll build on your strengths, develop practical tools, and support you in moving toward a more balanced, authentic, and fulfilling life.

Welcome and thank you for considering me for your therapist. I believe that therapy is best thought of as a means of becoming the best possible version of yourself; this requires vulnerability, bravery, and a willingness to change or explore new ways to interact with the world, the people we care about, and ourselves. I am an integrative therapist who is collaborative, responsive, trauma informed, and YOU centred in my approach. I am committed to providing a space that is supportive, empowering, non-judgmental, and that recognizes the strengths you have or want to build on.

I work with the deep feelers who feel lost in their sense of self. Do you often feel like you’re “too much” or “not enough,” carrying a quiet sense of shame or brokenness? Your actions feel performative rather than authentic. You long to feel like your true self without the constant pressure to please, perform, or hide. Maybe you grew up in an environment where emotional presence was missing, and you learned to protect yourself through defense mechanisms. Now, those old patterns feel exhausting and out of alignment with the person you want to be.

The pace of modern life can be downright overwhelming. Between living out our commitments to others and tending to even our most basic needs, it can feel like life is just happening to us - one thing after another, with very little time to process our experiences (both the bitter and the sweet!). This can leave us feeling reactive for reasons we don’t quite understand, disconnected from ourselves and others, and confused about where we’re going. I believe that one of the many gifts of therapy is that it offers us a dedicated place to pause, process, and move forward from a place of greater wellness and purpose.

It is so difficult living in a world that wasn’t made for you - that wasn’t made for so many of us. Your life has been very different than those around you, and you’re tired of trying to explain because you’re met with confusion, misunderstanding, or even hostility. Maybe you’re deep in depression, frozen with anxiety, haunted by intrusive memories of past abuse, or trapped in a currently abusive environment. Maybe you’re living as someone you know in your heart you aren’t, or maybe you’ve found yourself, but others have been slow to accept it. Maybe you’re trapped by your own or others’ expectations, feeling like you can’t breathe.

Do you know the feeling where you just don't know what to do or say? Maybe it is your child grappling with someone bullying them at school. Maybe you and your partner are feeling totally unsure how to be the parents and partners you both want to be. Maybe something tragic and life changing has happened and things are indescribably different - in ways you never wanted.

Trauma, EMDR & Addiction Support for High-Achieving Professionals (Online Across Ontario).
You’re the one people count on in Ontario—at work, in your family, in your community. You might be a high-achieving professional, an immigrant, or a Black LGBTQ+ person who looks strong on the outside but feels anxious, numb or overwhelmed inside. You hold a lot: racism, family expectations, old trauma, maybe a complicated relationship with alcohol, work or staying “busy.” You’re tired of surviving and pretending you’re fine and you want real change, not just more coping tips.

Hi, I’m Michaela! I hold a Behavioural Psychology undergraduate degree and a Masters of Social Work. I spent five years working in acute inpatient psychiatric care for children and youth ages 5-17 and currently work as a mental health social worker in the emergency department at my local hospital.

Something in you is suffering.
Something in your life, your body, or your sense of self has become too heavy to carry.
Life has shifted in ways you didn’t choose.
Stress. Pain. Illness. Loss.
Unexpected changes and prolonged struggles reshape daily life, challenging your relationship with yourself, your body, and others.
You have been told to manage, cope, and override what hurts. You’ve stayed strong, pushed aside your needs, and followed the rules. Much of this goes unspoken, after all, you’ve had to “stay positive” and “be grateful.”
But the harder you push. The quieter you become. The louder your body and emotions respond...
