How do you move forward when you long to break cycles in your personal or relational life, but can't seem to make it happen? In the face of overwhelming emotions, how do you find your way back to a baseline of ease and alignment with your values? If these questions stir something in you, I’m glad you’re here. I help adults who are feeling emotionally "stuck" to break cycles and heal trauma by befriending your emotions, regulating your nervous system, and tapping into your body's innate wisdom and resources, so that you can shift out of survival mode into a state of enriching connection to yourself and others.

Come! Let´s have a chat! Have you ever thought that there is no longer an emotional bond with your partner. No exchange of comfort, care and no more satisfaction? Feelings about our own well being striving to solve the situation with the thought that my partner needs to change. Let me tell you there is always hope. You have an internal urge to continue, but on the other hand you are so deep into the problems that possible solutions are not in reach. You can overcome the challenge of communication and teamwork.

My commitment is to walk alongside you as you navigate your path through life. My work experience in the non-profit sector has found me working with those struggling with mental health challenges (general anxiety/panic, depression, OCD, agoraphobia, trauma), addiction, chronic illness/pain, relationship issues and domestic abuse. I also identify as a consumer of care as a woman with an invisible disability and am passionate about advocacy work for migraine patients.

We all experience challenges and hardships and often forget to show ourselves kindness. Psychotherapy allows clients to share and explore their experiences in a safe space where they can be validated and reminded of their strengths while working towards their individual goals. Every person is different and I strive to respect and honour individuality. I aim to get to know my clients better in order to better support them in achieving their goals and coping with the challenges that life throws at them.

Are you new to therapy, and need a supportive, you-focused introduction to life-changing self-awareness? Maybe you've been doing therapy for years, but feel like something from the process is "missing"? Do you still feeling stuck, despite how many breathing exercises and positive self-talk you do? Struggling with childhood trauma, eating challenges, anxiety, grief (or all of the above?). Then let's talk! Using a combination of talk therapy, body-based somatics, critical reframing and psychoeducation, I work with individuals and clients to go DEEPER and get the support and results they're looking for.

Hi, I’m Michaela! I am a recent MSW graduate from the University of Windsor and had the pleasure of completing my last practicum with Psychotherapy for You Canada! I also hold an Honours Bachelor of Behavioural Psychology. I have spent the last four years working in acute inpatient psychiatric care for children and youth ages 5-17 and feel that I have a good grasp on some of the most pressing issues youth are currently facing. I believe every human being is unique, there is no “one-size-fits-all” approach, and each person deserves to seek counseling with a therapist who tailors their approach to what fits the client best.

Navigating life and relationships can be challenging, exhausting, confusing, and downright overwhelming. In a world where one is constantly connected through social media, increasingly, we can feel isolated and alone as we strive to meet relationship and work demands, while living up to our own personal and relational expectations. In seasons of uncertainty, it is normal to feel a sense of spinning out of control, and struggling with where do I go from here? The thought of therapy can be terrifying, which is why I am committed to creating an environment of trust and understanding.

Life can be very difficult at times and present us with challenges such as anxiety, depression, anger, loneliness, isolation, relationship issues, fear, trauma, grief, low self esteem and more. These can be very difficult and seem very out of control at times and become overwhelming. My hope is to offer you a safe space to share your life challenges, to come alongside of you in these challenges, to offer you a fresh perspective, offer understanding, and together, establish strategies to move forward in your journey that work best for you.

Overwhelmed? Alone? Stuck ? Are you experiencing a transition in your life that seems unbearable? Are you feeling angst and anxiety that has overtaken your daily schedule? My approach is client centered, warm and non judgmental. I feel it is important to create a safe space for all individuals. I think addressing the whole individual (mind, body, and soul) is imperative to healing. For those who prefer, I am willing to discuss existential questions like “Who am I?, What is my life’s purpose?, What is my mission in life?” While sitting with me we can explore your connection with a Higher Power(God, Mother Earth, The Universe etc.)

On the inside you’re unravelling. Overwhelmed and exhausted, stuck in the same day to day survival mode and feeling like you’ve lost yourself. Maybe you’re not quite sure when or how it happened, but somewhere along the line, life happened, and you no longer know who you are, your relationship with your partner doesn’t feel as close as it once did, or maybe your parenting isn’t what you imagined it would be. Where did your pleasure and purpose in life go? You built a beautiful life, but it’s harder than you imagined, and you feel like you’re failing.

Sometimes life can feel challenging and hard and we might lose ourselves a little along the way. This is when we need to slow down and take a deep breath. Reaching out for support can be a very effective way to feel less alone and figure out your next steps. I provide a non-judgmental space so clients can feel safe to openly share their thoughts, emotions and experiences. I specialize in helping individuals learn and apply new skills and strategies that help make impactful shifts that lead to meaningful change.

You're overwhelmed by anxiety, stress, grief, perfectionism, or burnout. Daily life feels like you're just going through the motions and you are sliding further away from where you thought you'd be. You deserve to live a life that gives you meaning and makes you feel connected to what matters. People come to see me to move away from feelings of overwhelm, trust themselves again, and to feel better in their lives. I can help you develop coping strategies and process difficult thoughts and emotions. I build relationships built on curiosity, compassion, and the belief that you are stronger than you think.
