With mental health and addiction there comes this terrible feeling of powerlessness, shame and loss of control. Sometimes reaching out for help seems like too much. But when you do reach out, you will know what it's like to recover and the tremendous hope it brings. The strength you didn't know you had will appear and you will feel whole again - and in control. I would like to help you find that way forward.

As a clinical forensic psychologist, I focus on risk assessment of individuals with sexual offences, who are before the court, or involved with child protection. I provide comprehensive forensic assessments to assist the courts or child protection in making determinations about sentencing or access to children. Sexological risk assessments can also determine the presence of a sexual/paraphilic disorder that may require additional treatment or intervention.

I specialize in supporting individuals facing debilitating self-doubt, anxiety, and depression, as well as couples recovering from infidelity, loss of connection, waning intimacy, or crumbling stability. My experiences in private practice, ongoing professional development, and supervisory roles, have shaped my identity as a therapist who places authenticity and creative problem-solving at the center of navigating life’s challenges. This insight is further deepened by my lived experience as a blind individual, as this perspective enriches my attunement to the resilience, vulnerability, and complexity clients carry.

I enjoy working with clients who appreciate that in getting to their best selves and quality of life must look at their whole health. Life is hard and all the more challenging when we aren't taking great care of ourselves physically, emotionally, nutritionally, financially, spiritually or mentally. Learning how to DO things differently matters given that just wanting and talking about change simply isn't enough. Helping clients understand and heal in their relationships past and present is key to building a solid foundation that supports better overall health and quality of life.

My ideal client is someone who has carried far too much for far too long. They often show up exhausted by cycles they can’t seem to break—whether that’s addiction, trauma patterns, people-pleasing, or constantly feeling responsible for everyone else’s emotions. They’ve lost pieces of themselves along the way and are finally ready to understand why they feel this way and what it would look like to choose themselves again. They want to feel grounded, connected, and at home in their own body. They’re looking for a therapist who is compassionate but honest, someone who will hold space with them while also gently challenging the pattern

Sexual Addiction Counsellors
When should someone seek treatment for sex addiction?
People should seek treatment for sex addiction if they cannot control their sexual thoughts or behaviours to the point that it disrupts their ability to function in daily life, for example by threatening their finances, career, or relationships. This may include spending an excessive amount of time obsessing over sex, planning sex, watching pornography, or masturbating, as well as consistently engaging in risky sexual activities, using sex to escape distressing feelings, or attempting yet failing to control sexual behaviour.

What are the most common treatment options for sex addiction?
Psychotherapy is the most common treatment for sex addiction; therapy helps patients better understand their compulsive thoughts and behaviours and develop strategies to manage their desires. Therapy may be supplemented by medications, such as antidepressants, mood stabilizers, anti-androgens, alcohol and substance use medications, as well as support groups, such as 12-step programs.

How long does therapy take for sex addiction?
Recovering from compulsive behaviour takes time and effort. There’s no precise timeline for treatment, but research suggests 12 therapy sessions may be enough to see change. Treatment for sexual compulsions requires honesty in therapy, a commitment to understanding triggers and developing coping skills, and potential lifestyle changes such as cutting out alcohol or drugs.

What if sex addiction is left untreated?
Compulsive sexual behaviour can have serious repercussions if left unaddressed. For example, if sexual obsessions consume the vast majority of a person’s time, they may lose their job. If they can’t stop paying for sex, their finances may suffer. If they’re dishonest in their relationships, their partner may leave them. If they consistently feel shame, they may struggle with anxiety, depression, or loneliness. Therapy can help people develop the tools to manage sexual thoughts and behaviours that feel uncontrollable.
