I provide individual therapy services for adults and youth, aged 16+. The people I serve are often struggling with low mood and/or anxiety, and thought processes that may be overly negative, rigid, or limiting. Clients who access my services are typically seeking support to better manage their day-to-day roles, responsibilities and close relationships. Stress, overwhelm, anger, sadness and feelings of disconnection from self and the world are common experiences my clients might be dealing with. And sometimes, folks are simply looking for an objective listener - you do not need to be in extreme distress for therapy to be beneficial.

Currently open to new clients! I often work with people have been experiencing long-term emotional pain and mental health issues. You may find yourself feeling overwhelmed by fears that don't always make sense, caught between wanting closeness and needing distance in your relationships, or struggling to align your behaviours with your values. Many of the people I work with carry a deep sense of shame and loneliness. These struggles are often rooted in early relationships and repeated experiences of not feeling seen, understood, or safe. I prioritize moving at a pace that honours safety, consent, and your nervous system.

Life’s beauty often lies in its complexity. Challenges can be powerful opportunities for growth, helping us discover new strengths and deepen our understanding of ourselves. Yet, there are moments when stress, anxiety, low mood, or other emotional struggles can leave us feeling disconnected from who we are. These experiences are not signs of weakness—they’re signals that you’ve been doing your best with the tools and support available to you.

As a child psychotherapist, my approach involves keen observation of a child's play, drawings, words, and behavior. Through this process, I help children verbalize the thoughts and emotions underlying their challenging behaviors. I tailor my methods to each individual child or family, ensuring an age-appropriate approach. Maintaining a neutral and non-directive stance, I create an atmosphere where children and adolescents feel free to express themselves without fear of punishment or rejection. This fosters trust and understanding, allowing them to communicate their hopes and fears ultimately shaping their perception of the world.

I provide both individual and family therapy.

When the people who were supposed to protect you caused harm—or failed to stop it—your nervous system learned to survive instead of feel safe. Many clients come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, shut down, or constantly on edge. If you grew up where emotions weren’t safe, boundaries were violated, or your needs were ignored, you may struggle with self-sabotaging behaviors, emotional numbness, or intense shame. These are common effects of childhood trauma, emotional neglect, and nervous system dysregulation. As a trauma therapist, I support clients healing from childhood sexual trauma, CPTSD, attachment trauma, and narcissistic abuse.

What’s the most effective treatment for psychosis?
The most effective treatment for psychosis is coordinated specialty care. In this model, a team of professionals works with a patient to address all aspects of the underlying disorder. This approach incorporates individual or group therapy, employment and education support, family support and education, medication management (which often involves low doses of antipsychotics), and case management to facilitate problem-solving as needed.
When should people seek treatment for psychosis?
People should seek immediate treatment at the earliest indication of psychosis. Symptoms include delusions, hallucinations, disorganized or blocked speech, and agitated body movements. Early signs that a person may be developing a disorder that will lead to psychosis include suspiciousness of others, memory problems and distractibility, an inability to think clearly, rapid or nonsensical speech, withdrawal from friends or family, aggression toward others, and sensitivity to bright lights or noises.
What if psychosis is left untreated?
Without treatment, psychosis can have significant repercussions, including injuries, job loss, homelessness, financial or legal trouble, ruptured relationships, and suffering for the person and their family. While early treatment for psychosis often yields the best results, there is no point past which it becomes useless to seek treatment. At any point, treatment can make a difference.
How do I get someone else to seek treatment for psychosis?
It’s extremely difficult to watch a loved one suffer from hallucinations, delusions, and other elements of psychosis—sometimes exacerbated by their fears of treatment. Have a conversation with them in a quiet space and maintain a calm, supportive tone. Share your concerns about behaviors you’ve observed, suggest treatment, and explain the potential benefits. Listen carefully to their responses. The person may not be ready after one conversation, but with time, they may come around.
