Barrie, ON L4M
Reeling from an affair or betrayal trauma? Whether you discovered your partner's infidelity or you were the one who was unfaithful, the pain can feel unbearable — and deciding what comes next can feel impossible. I help couples and individuals heal from physical, emotional, financial, and online infidelity. Together we'll find clarity, process the hurt, and work toward your next step: rebuilding trust, or parting with peace. Healing after an affair is possible, even when it feels out of reach right now.

NO WAIT-LIST & In-Person appt! ADHD, Addiction, Anxiety/Depression, LGBTQ2S+, Relationships- You feel like you're constantly playing catch-up, struggling to focus, follow through, or find motivation. ADHD, anxiety, or addiction can make it hard to keep up with daily life, and relationship conflicts can leave you feeling disconnected or misunderstood. If you're navigating life as a Queer person, it can also bring an added layer of stress, self-doubt, or isolation. When the overwhelm builds, it can feel like your mind and emotions are working against you, making it even harder to cope, function and feel in control of your daily life.

You may be feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected from yourself lately. Even when life looks “together” from the outside, underneath there might be anxiety, self-doubt, overthinking, or the feeling that something just isn’t quite right. I don’t see these parts of you as problems that need to be fixed. I see a person shaped by their experiences, relationships, and the things they’ve had to navigate along the way. Together, we can create a space where you feel genuinely heard and comfortable talking through what’s been coming up, while finding your way back to yourself with greater compassion and understanding.

It’s understandable to feel overwhelmed or shut down when life feels hard, situations difficult, and relationships confusing. I work with individuals to overcome life challenges, anxiety, depression, trauma, self harm or feelings of overwhelm. It's possible to shift patterns of overthinking, disconnection, or people-pleasing. Together, we’ll engage in a process of self-reflection and open discussion to build self-awareness to support meaningful change. My role is to guide you in strengthening your inner resources and develop skills so you can meet life’s challenges with greater ease, confidence, and knowing.

On paper you are doing well. You meet the deadlines, you answer the messages, you are the one other people rely on. What nobody sees is what it now costs to look like this: the Sunday dread, the racing mind at night, the way rest feels like something you have to earn and never quite do. Perhaps you are a student who has always been the capable one, or a professional whose job has quietly taken over the rest of your life. Perfectionism is a hard master, and running on empty for long enough starts to feel normal. It is not a character flaw, and it does not have to keep costing you this much.
