Cancer Therapists in Barrie, ON

I am a registered social worker with over 15 years of work experience. I have helped people who experience issues such as: depression, anxiety, addiction, abuse, trauma, anger, LGBTQ-related issues, relationship issues, grief, and family conflict. My journey into social work began at age 14, when I lost my father to cancer . Because there were few supports available at the time, I felt alone and stuck. This prompted me to dedicate my life to assisting others during difficult times, and help them realize they are not alone.

At Nalu Therapy, we believe that everyone has the innate capacity to heal themselves. While our habitualized thought patterns, habits and emotional responses muddy the waters and interrupt this process, these patterns initially developed to keep us safe in some way. With compassionate spaces, meaningful support and tailored therapeutic techniques to meet your unique needs, we can walk together to remove barriers, reconnect you to your wholeness and allow opportunity for your innate healing to flow once again.

I see people who are struggling with depression, anxiety, addictions, adjustment to change in their lives, relationship or family conflict, or the residual pain left from difficult childhoods or painful life events. My way of working as a therapist is to get to know you: your hopes, your talents, your problems and your unique way of thinking and expressing yourself. We then proceed with treatment based on who you are and what you need. The aim is to allow coping with your weaknesses to help you uncover your strengths, and your way forward.
