Does this sound like you? You're a highly sensitive person and or empath. Maybe you're the Type A, overachieving type who has a hard time truly saying what you mean or setting boundaries with the people in your life. You're passionate about personal growth, willing to "do the work" - maybe you've even been to therapy before. For you, maybe it shows up as anxiety or ADHD, maybe it's a difficult relationship with your mom or dad, a history of childhood trauma, difficulty breaking bad habits, workplace stress/burnout, procrastination, difficulty in your romantic relationship, or a sense of worthlessness you just can't seem to heal

Are you smart, driven, career-focused, achievement oriented but just feel STUCK? Nobody sees your high-functioning anxiety; they would never suspect your inner struggle. But your brain is relentless, your inner critic picks apart your every word, you can never get caught up on your to-do list, and no matter how much praise you get - you don't believe it. You wonder if you are depressed, maybe you have ADHD...everything feels like a chore, and life isn't FUN anymore. You've read the self-help books, tried meditation, mental health walks, journaling...You know at the core you need to "love yourself", but truly don't know how

Do you feel like you're always saying yes when you want to say no, replaying every conversation in your head, heart pounding over things that shouldn't feel this big? Maybe you grew up disappearing at the sound of footsteps, always scanning, bracing, reading the room before you could read words. Now you're the reliable one overachieving, overfunctioning, trying to prevent disaster before it hits. You’ve done the apps, the books, the deep breaths, the cold plunges, maybe a few glasses of wine to quiet the noise. But inside, you're frozen. Longing for something you’ve never fully had: a nervous system that feels safe and like home

Change can be tough and constant. Sometimes we adjust with ease but other times we find ourselves feeling stuck. Life can get in the way from where we desire to be. Fear of change can lead us into feeling guarded, hurt or even resentful. Do you feel like you are moving through the motions of life and not actually experiencing your life to the fullest? Ruminating on the “what ifs”? Disconnecting from the present waiting for the other shoe to drop? What if you tapped into the courage within you to lean into these moments? What if I told you that you deserve moments of joy; you deserve to experience the best in your life.

Do you spend too much time rethinking about the past while feeling anger, shame, sadness, confusion, and guilt? Maybe you were raised by emotionally immature parents, struggle to set boundaries, find yourself in painful codependent relationships, and feel responsible for others’ emotions. You’re always in fight-flight-freeze, and can't break the patterns that keep you stuck. It's infuriating to intellectually know what to do, and not be able to DO it (for long). Your brain is in overdrive and you're stuck in "freeze", numbing out with wine, weed, social media, alcohol, or anything that works

You thought it was a phase, but now it's starting to affect your relationships, and you're finally feeling ready - and willing - to make a real change

Accepting new clients! My psychoanalytical practice is grounded in the belief that long-standing, repetitive issues — those that seem to resist resolution despite your best efforts — are most effectively addressed by uncovering unconscious motivations that drive thoughts, emotions, and behaviour. I work with challenges like stress, depression, anxiety, relationship difficulties, identity confusion, loss, addictions, physical illness, and family-of-origin issues.

You are constantly walking on eggshells. Always on high alert, your highly sensitive brain is always scanning other people's expressions to make sure everything is okay. You over-apologize, over-explain, over-share or disconnect and push your emotions deep down. You feel different - too emotional, too “much”. A sense of loneliness and longing for something you can’t describe looms in the background of everything you do. No matter what you try the feeling that there’s “something wrong with you” just won’t let up. You try to feel better - you have journaled, meditated, tried therapy, medication, breathwork…but nothing helps for long.

I appreciate that seeking help can be intimidating. Many people feel that they suffer alone. People do not realize how common it is to suffer from mental health-related issues. In North America, one in five adults suffer from distress, such as depression, anxiety, and interpersonal problems. Psychotherapy is extremely effective at treating a wide variety of psychological issues. I provide evidence-based, individualized, and collaborative treatment to ensure the quality of care. My approach to psychotherapy incorporates cognitive behavior therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and emotion-focused therapy (EFT).

You’re navigating the stages of life and change, taking care of everyone around you and hoping things will get better. You are successful, but can’t shake the feeling that you are not good enough, that you could always be doing more at work, at home and in your relationships with others. You’ve read all the books, listened to all the podcasts, googled everything you can think of but it all seems overwhelming and you feel even more isolated.
