Therapists in Brantford, ON

Have you come to the place in your life where what you have been doing to cope until now is no longer working? Or perhaps you are approaching a transition in your life and you're not sure where to even begin with those next steps. When things don’t work as they once did or your in transition, anxiety increases and is often accompanied by a desire to withdraw from the world. This becomes so difficult to navigate on your own. I see you and I understand. Many of my clients (and myself to be honest) have had similar experiences.

Your unique path to healing begins here. I specialize in helping individuals including children and families overcome the challenges of depression, anxiety and trauma, as well as those experiencing life transitions. Perhaps you are struggling at work or in your relationships or stressed with life in general. I believe it takes tremendous courage to reach out for help, and together we will work toward your emotional well-being and personal growth.

I have over ten years of experience working with dynamic populations who have come to therapy to heal from a wide spectrum of traumatic experiences. I specialize in perinatal therapy with specific experience working with perinatal loss and birth trauma that considers shifts in identity that can accompany pregnancy, birth and perinatal loss. I have also worked closely with survivors of violence and childhood trauma, addiction and mental health survivors, as well as LGBTQIA+ youth and their families.

When we experience trauma it is a wound that effects our nervous system. Using therapies that take a bottom up approach helps us connect with our bodies about subjects that our brains cannot rationalize. Calm the body, calm the mind.

I believe seeking supports through counselling is an act of bravery and courage and as such I consider it an honour for anyone to confide in me their struggles, hopes and aspirations. My intention is to simply be human with individuals and help guide them along their journey. Therapy is not a fix it all solution, it takes time, practice and most importantly a genuine human connection.

Every client is unique and have their own needs and wants. I under uniqueness of each client which is why I use the best therapeutic-approach to suit the client

Are you having trouble communicating in your relationship? Do you feel unheard and unable to navigate conflict and resolve difficulties? I help couples understand their struggles, improve their communication and connect again to the love that brought them together. I work with individuals struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma and work-related stresses. In addition to using trauma informed approaches, I am a very client centered therapist. This means that I emphasize acceptance, unconditional positive regard and a non-judgmental stance in my work with clients.

At times, our distress can be overwhelming but when we walk together it builds strength. The therapeutic relationship is an important aspect which will strengthen as we navigate your present concerns. As we delve deeper into the presenting issue there’s the consideration of your own strengths, lived experiences, culture, and background. These aspects are taken into consideration when establishing treatment and goals for treatment.

Clients have taught me that there is no "one-way" that fits all. Different approaches are important because everybody is different. I work with individuals, couples and families. I listen to your experiences and at the same time introduce change in your thoughts, feelings, and behaviours. I have spent my entire career learning and developing skill-based strategies that help people move closer to who they want to Become (growth). My therapy expertise focuses on issues related to anxiety, depression, PTSD and moral injury, insomnia issues, emotional dysregulation, couple conflicts, infidelities, communication, body image, and grief.

Negative thinking, procrastination, self-sabotage, trauma, not feeling good enough, masking of emotions, consistently feeling like you’re hanging on by a thread. If any of these, or even a few of these resonated with you, you are in the right place. I take a trauma-informed, and validating approach to psychotherapy in order to hold a compassion space for you to vent and process your thoughts and emotions. Whether you feel like it’s events from the past that are keeping you stuck, or a fear of failure in the future, I want to work with you to help connect the dots and get you living a more meaningful, connected, and authentic life.

If you’re a parent looking for the right service for your child/youth, or you are an adult looking for a non-judgemental, authentic, down to earth, and compassionate therapist then look no further. I use an evidenced-based trauma and attachment treatment lens with my clients. We begin by building a therapeutic relationship and exploring support networks, strengths, and coping skills. This will also build a sense of empowerment that you (or your child) can use to navigate difficulties that may arise while transitioning to the next phase in your life/families life.
