Adults Therapists in London, ON

Accepting new clients! Reaching out for help is hard, and it takes a lot of courage. Since you're here, you may feel overwhelmed or stressed and need someone to help you better understand your emotions, feelings, or behaviors and perhaps how to cope with them. Our goal is to create a safe, non-judgmental space where you can feel supported and comfortable and we meet you where you at in your healing journey. We walk beside you to support you and work together to design a therapeutic plan based on your personal needs and goals. We believe that collaboration is critical because you are the expert in your own lived experience.

Are you feeling anxious, depressed or overwhelmed? Let me guide you through emotional and social change so that you can achieve improved mental health and live a more authentic and positive life. Engage with me in a collaborative process of self-discovery and exploration of social and personal experiences, thoughts and feelings. Let's initiate change and healing together, and discover insights into your psychological functioning so that you can live a more authentic and positive life. I tailor treatment to the needs of each individual or couple.

Everyone deserves to be living their best life, and I would like to support you in living yours. My areas of specialty include working with adults who are navigating challenges with life transitions, depression, anxiety, identity, and chronic health issues and/or injuries. I am also passionate about working with survivors of traumatic brain injury and their families, having a comprehensive understanding of the impact a brain injury can have. If you are feeling alone, frustrated, trapped/stuck, questioning who you are, or uncertain with how to proceed, I am here to work with you collaboratively and compassionately.

As a Registered Social Worker and Psychotherapist, my goal in therapy is to create a safe space where you can explore what is hurting you or holding your back from the life you would like to be living. Our roles as adults , partners, parents, students, employees, etc never seem to end and will often take us on journeys we have never imagined. Sometimes we are unhappy with where we are and would like to make changes but don’t know where to start. With 15 years of experience in mental health, I work from a trauma-informed, client-centred practice, shifting the focus from what is wrong with you?” to “what happened to you?”

Everyone’s story matters. I believe one of the bravest things you can do is to begin the process of unpacking and understanding your own story. Perhaps your story has left you feeling ineffective, overwhelmed and insecure as a parent. Perhaps your story is just beginning and you’re struggling to figure out who you are, who you want to be and how to get there. Or perhaps your story has left you with a negative sense of self and unfulfilling relationships that seem to continually let you down.

English and French-speaking therapist. I see children, teens and adults , as well as their families. Individuals often seek me out to help them work through concerns such as symptoms of anxiety or depression; struggles with self-esteem; dealing with difficult family events; grief and loss; bullying and peer issues; help with managing emotions like anger, fear, or sadness; stress management; school struggles; and relationship strain with family or friends. I provide counselling in-person in London, ON and online to Ontario residents.

Through my training and work in multiple settings with diverse individuals and groups, I have developed a passion for working with clients and their surrounding communities to promote mental health and resilience in a way that meets and respects the individual’s goals and values.

I believe life is a journey to be experienced. There are countless reasons why you and/or your families journey may have lead to seeking therapy for support. Whether it be struggling with big emotions, feeling stuck, stressed, hurt, overwhelmed, maybe you're struggling with certain behavioural tendencies, or relationships with friends and families. I am here to hold the space with you so we can understand where your life can be enhanced.

My joy is to help children, adolescents and young adults discover their full potential! With over 22 years of experience, I conduct comprehensive psych. assessments to diagnose ADHD, Learning Disability, Giftedness, Intellectual Disability, ASD, and other developmental or social-emotional issues. I use a holistic and eclectic approach to identify specific strengths and help address learning, academic, self-esteem, attentional, adaptive/developmental, social-emotional or other mental health challenges. I provide direct supports and recommend strategies for the whole person. Collaboration with the whole family and team is essential.

Within a compassionate setting, I help my clients understand and address mental health concerns using evidence-based strategies (treatments that have been shown to work). I work with adults with a range of concerns, including depression, social anxiety, excessive worry, panic attacks, PTSD, and eating disorders. I have provided psychological services in various settings (e.g., outpatient mental health programs), and I have a strong research and practice background in emotional disorders and trauma/PTSD.

I've worked therapeutically with diverse populations, in correctional and community settings, with families, adolescents and adults , for about 20 years. My approach is nuanced and responsive; my lens is anti-oppressive, attachment and trauma informed, queer and trans affirming, and psycho-dynamically and somatically attuned. To me, this means listening to, and noticing with you, communication from various verbal and non-verbal levels. It also means witnessing and acknowledging cultural, systemic, and familial legacies of power and oppression and their impact on our internal and external lives.

Accepting new clients, evening/weekends available - I offer individual counselling services to teens and adults virtually by phone or video. We face many challenges, and it can be helpful to talk to someone so you don’t feel so overwhelmed or alone. I work with clients to explore their concerns in a client-centred, supportive, judgement free environment. Together we can create goals to work towards, creating positive change in your life.
