Divorce Therapists in Elora, ON
I work with driven individuals who want to grow, yet may find themselves feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or frustrated that they aren’t showing up the way they know they can. I believe meaningful change is ALWAYS possible. In our work together, we’ll explore what matters most to you and help you move toward it, even when your mind tries to pull you off course.
My approach draws heavily from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which focuses on learning to accept what we cannot control while committing to act on what truly matters.

Clients work with me to support them when they are feeling stuck; or faced with decision making and change which is weighing on them; or through times of distress in relationships, with career transitions or career development, parenting or life in general. Clients also work with me when they are being proactive with their emotional and mental health and want to stay focussed on their wellbeing. Whatever brings you to this place you are welcome. Setting up a free 15 minute phone consult is the first step. This allows us to both see if how I work could be a good fit for you at this time.

Taking the step to explore your life and feelings in counselling takes boldness and bravery. Congratulations for taking that first step. Relationships are often central in our lives. The first significant relationship is the one you have with yourself, then with your significant others, and the community. It is through our everyday relationships we can begin to understand others, our communities and ourselves. I work with individuals and offer group programs. I enjoy working with adolescents and adults of all ages in my practice both in person, online and/or on the phone.

Adulting is tough at times; different life stages, different goals and opportunities. Much of our personal history influences how we approach challenges in life and how we interact with others. Family can be a source of support, or not. The same can be said about those who surround us; work, social and friend groups. I believe we have the tools within us to deal with what life throws at us. It may be a tweak or a subtle shift of thought that will make the difference, or it may take a while due to previous traumas.

I work with people who are tired of collecting intellectual insight without real change — those longing for deeper, lasting inner work rooted in depth psychology and authentic spirituality.

Together, we get to know your inner world, so you can begin to trust yourself — and even like who you are.

The world is on fire, social media says you’re behind, and every decision feels high-stakes. Rent? Wild... Job security? Questionable... Anxiety? Through the roof! You’re trying to build a career, afford a life, and keep it together while your brain spirals nonstop. You overthink every move, compare yourself constantly, and feel behind even though you’re doing what you’re ‘supposed’ to be doing. You second guess yourself constantly and the future feels overwhelming instead of exciting.

I support clients during various transitions in their lives, including emerging womanhood, birthing, (single)parenting, loss, identity (re)formation, divorce, marriage, empty nest and (peri)menopause transitions.
Life can be a lot sometimes, can’t it? You might look around and wonder, "How did I get here?" or feel like the way you've been navigating your world just doesn’t fit anymore. Reactions and emotions might feel out of control, like you're stuck in cycles you don’t quite know how to break. Maybe your body is sending you signals—tension, stress, or discomfort—that something's off. Or, you’re facing changes and challenges that feel overwhelming, and it’s just exhausting. Wouldn’t it be nice to allow a little space for ease?

Relationships form the foundation of life. It is within our relationships with others that we come to understand who we are and find happiness, meaning and fulfillment. However, relationships can also pose some of our most trying obstacles as it is where we often are the most vulnerable. Every relationship goes through unique challenges that can lead to deterioration of communication and emotional connection. Having a safe space to explore deeper emotional experiences and vulnerabilities can open the possibility of change through increased awareness, mindfulness and intentionality.

Divorce Counsellors
How does therapy for people affected by a divorce work?
Individuals may feel a number of emotions following a divorce, such as shock, guilt, grief, anger, and fear. Therapists offer a non-judgmental space for individuals to talk about what they’ve experienced and process their emotions. Therapists will help clients develop coping strategies. They can also help a client rebuild their sense of self and self-worth and talk about what a happier future might look like.
What’s the most common type of therapy following a divorce?
There are several types of therapy that may be useful for divorce, including cognitive behavioural, acceptance and commitment, solution-focused brief, and mindfulness-based therapies. Many therapy types are talk-therapy based, which is typically the most popular option for individuals dealing with divorce. Cognitive behavioural therapy is a widely-used talk therapy, however, there’s no specific therapy type that’s designed to help people with divorce, and different types will work depending on the person.
When should an individual seek help due to a divorce?
When the feelings of a divorced individual, or an individual going through the process of divorce, begin to disrupt healthy daily functioning, it may be a good time to look into therapy. If a person finds that they are not performing at work due to problems with anxiety or motivation, if they’re no longer seeing friends due to feelings of shame, or if they’re not properly taking care of themselves as a result of depression, speaking to a professional could help.
How do you encourage someone to go to therapy due to a divorce?
It’s helpful to express concern and love for the individual while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Sharing how the individual appears to be suffering, and what effects it has on them or on their children, should be done with compassion and empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.
