Therapists in M6R

Loss, Grief, Trauma, Anxiety, Depression, Life transitions, Parenting Challenges and Relationship Conflicts impact self-esteem, identity and overall well- being. I support clients to make sense of their journey and to understand how their past experiences can influence their present challenges. I apply a person-centered approach in supporting both individuals and couples. My goal is to support you to learn new ways of coping, gain perspective on your life and develop insights that empower you to take the next steps on your path towards healing.

I welcome clients who are looking for support related to anxiety, ADHD/neurodivergence, depression, grief and loss, LGBTQ+ identity, pregnancy and parenting, relationships (dating, partnership, separation), and other life transitions. I delight in working collaboratively with clients in holistic and trauma-informed ways, incorporating humour and mindfulness. At a foundational level, I take a humble, decolonized, intersectional and otherwise anti-oppressive approach to my work. I value individual identity and collectivism/community and support diverse genders, ethical nonmonogamy, harm reduction and various recovery pathways.

When you dreamed about getting pregnant and having kids, you hoped it would be an easy process. You’d conceive quickly, have a healthy baby, your body would work as you expected, you’d feel in control of the birth process. You expected that parenting would feel intuitive, you would know what to do to meet your child’s needs, the act of parenting would bring you and your partner closer. The reality is that conception, birth and parenting can be full of regret, disappointment, and confusion. Unmet expectations around conception, birth and parenting can leave you feeling disconnected, full of grief and carrying a heavy load.

Starting therapy can feel like embarking on a journey into uncharted territory. It's confronting overwhelming challenges like the persistent weight of anxiety, the pervasive cloud of depression, the tension of stress, or the intricate interplay of life’s multifaceted issues that often drives us to seek therapeutic support. Making the decision to start therapy marks a pivotal moment in the pursuit of self-discovery and healing. Entering therapy is a testament to resilience. It's about bravely confronting internal struggles with the hope of finding relief, understanding, and ultimately, positive change.

Are you struggling with feeling sad, anxious, angry, ashamed, lonely, or confused? Are you struggling within yourself or in your relationship? Psychotherapy can really help. It helps enormously to have a safe person to be able to feel, express, digest and understand your experience with, including how it was shaped by your early relationships in life. Our early development powerfully shapes how we feel about ourselves and what we expect in our lives and in our relationships. More freedom, connection, and joy is possible. I work with adults, specializing in relationships, attachment, self-esteem, parenting, and trauma recovery.

Are you ready to change? to become ‘unstuck’? to cease being shackled by your past, by others and their opinions? to establish and embrace your autonomy? I can help.

Investing in understanding yourself — what makes you unique, what makes you strong, and how you may hold yourself back — is one of the greatest gifts you can give yourself.

Whether you are looking for quick tools to help shift your mood, or longer-term support for charting a course through a major life transition, or puzzling through challenges with end-of-life, grief, family, relationships or work, I feel privileged to support your success and be and a part of your story.

Hello, I’m a Registered Social Worker (MSW) and Psychotherapist working virtually with clients in Ontario. I provide a safe and caring space to explore the struggles you are facing and guide you towards understanding, healing and overall balance in life. I work from an integrated, holistic approach. This means therapy is collaborative - you already have many strengths and inner wisdom; I shed light and guide you to identify how thought patterns, reactivity and perhaps old wounds keep you stuck. Through evidence-based, mind-body and spiritual approaches we work together so you can start to live with more balance, clarity and joy.

I am a Registered Psychotherapist with the CRPO (008887). Explore your relationships and sexuality in a space free of judgement. I take a non-pathologizing, non-judgmental, holistic approach to sex counselling and sex therapy. I provide sex therapy and sex counselling for individuals or within relationship counselling or couples therapy that incorporates an understanding of how our sexuality is shaped by the relationship between the mind, body, spirit, and larger society. I believe there are limitless ways to live a pleasurable life when practiced in a compassionate, caring, consensual environment with or without sex.

I would like to invite you into a non-judgmental, nurturing, and anti-oppressive space, where we can work together to address the challenges in your life. Sometimes life can bring hardship and unexpected events, which can produce negative feelings and emotions. Some of these challenges require less support to process and work through, while others may take longer and require more frequent support to overcome. As your therapist, my goal is to understand you, your needs, and guide you to cope with or overcome the difficulties interfering with your everyday life.

Are you finding it difficult to make sense of yourself, others, and the world around you? Is the noise in your head causing you to feel confused, overwhelmed, and lost? Have you found it challenging to understand traumatic experiences or stressful life events? Are you struggling to find joy? Life is beyond our control and that can feel overwhelming. Mood, anxiety, and stress symptoms can leave us feeling stuck, helpless, and hopeless which can have a negative impact on our relationships, education, career, personal growth, and daily functioning. Without support, we can feel alone, frustrated, dissatisfied, and confused.
