Spirituality Therapists in London, ON

I support youth and adults with anxiety, body image and relational concerns. I am skilled at supporting clients in the perinatal stage. I have a strong interest in issues of faith deconstruction and reconstruction, no matter what beliefs, religion or faith traditions you are a part of.

My faith-based Christian practice is focused on providing anti-oppressive, culturally sensitive support to individuals of African, Caribbean, African Canadian/American heritage, and allies. My focus is help rebuild esteem, intimacy, trust, and friendship. Together, we can work on healing and provide you with the tools to grow individually, as a family, and/or couple to (re)establish a stronger sense of self; ensuring that when working with couples and families, we collaboratively cultivate, and maintain mutual respect while feeling heard, seen, valued, understood, and supported by your partner/family members.

Healing can be a very challenging time in our lives. We heal when we feel safe and connected to our mind, body, and spirit. I will support you in making sense of your emotions and discovering your inner self. I am here to support you to the best of my ability and provide a non-judgement and inclusive space for you to share your life journey safely. During our time together, we will discover what approach works best for you and build a collaborative therapeutic relationship.

Are you facing a major transition? Are you tired of struggling against the same things over and over in your life? Do you want to feel more confident and grounded in yourself? For these struggles and more, I offer wholehearted support for your change journey, following your cues and your hopes for your present and future. I will meet you where you are, helping you see and embrace the inner strengths you already have so you can ground yourself and move forward confidently in your life.

I am accepting new clients right now and when everything falls apart, or how you've coped before isn't working any more, it is time for a different approach. Sessions focus on (re)discovering the strengths you may not feel you have, learning mindful self-compassion practices to support yourself more kindly, discern what wisdom means for you and how to access your practical wisdom for living your life and finding a way through, no matter what you are facing. Symptoms such as anxiety, depression, burnout, stress can be the catalysts for changing your thinking, behaviours and patterns to discover new ways to live your life.

I am a Registered Psychotherapist. I offer individual, couple/family counselling. I use emotion and solution-focused techniques in session. We will talk about and explore feelings, helping you completely process emotions, to better guide you in relationships and decision-making. I will also help you learn healthy relationship skills and other issues you may be struggling with ex: boundaries, assertiveness. We will explore what your personal triggers are and how they impact your life, enabling you to move forward. These concerns will be explored together in a safe, open dialogue in which you feel cared for.

The world is changing, and we can all feel and see it. The value of taking care of our mental health is becoming increasingly important, as we become more aware of our past and as we step into our future together. You may be feeling anxious, depressed, confused, lost, or you may simply not know how to feel or what to feel. You may have difficulty communicating. You may be feeling good but just want to explore yourself or are curious to grow in unique and different ways. Maybe you are having relationship issues, or maybe you want to reconnect to spirituality . These are all wonderful reasons to talk to a counsellor.

You may be experiencing depression, anxiety, grief, addiction, or other symptoms. You may wish to become more mindful, deal with past trauma, develop greater insight, make meaning, change old patterns or unwanted behaviours, develop new habits, pursue new goals, enlarge your sense of what is possible in life, and find greater peace and self-acceptance. If you are finding that psychological distress is interfering with your ability to enjoy life, maintain mutually satisfying relationships, and/or fulfilling work, psychotherapy can be very helpful.

Do you feel alone in your relationship or exhausted by life's constant demands? Do you feel like your relationship is in shambles? Do you feel desperate to be understood by your significant other? Sometimes it feels like all you do in your relationship is argue and fight. And you don't like the person you and your partner are becoming. Change IS possible and there IS a way forward. Peace of mind, peace in the home & restoration can be goals we will work on together, with a clear plan, toward hope and true harmony.

Life brings many challenges and sometimes we all need additional support. As a therapist, my approach is collaborative and solution-focused. Over the past 10 years, I have helped children, teens, adults, couples, and families gain insight and find balance for optimal well-being.

Are you feeling weighed down by the pain of loss or trauma? Perhaps you’re experiencing the confusion that arises when life doesn’t go as planned. Or the self-doubt that can come from choices you’ve made in the past. Along with sadness, you might feel anger or a sense of shame. As a survivor of religious trauma, I have lived experience in the process of moving from this dark and lonely place to healing and hope. Whether you find yourself questioning the beliefs you grew up with or those of a group you chose to align with, we can gently bring what makes you uncomfortable into the light of day and move towards a brighter future.

Sometimes life hurts and we are uncertain how to move forward. Trauma, grief, life transitions, difficult relationships, and past experiences often leave us searching for healing and hope. We don’t want to do this work alone, and yet we don’t always know where to turn. In the therapeutic relationship you will be heard and seen. In my practice I use a holistic, person-centred approach where together we will build a respectful relationship that allows you to gain new skills, acquire knowledge that helps bring about change, and work toward your personal goals.

If you’re struggling with a challenge that feels confusing, heavy, or scary, or if you’re at a crossroads in life and wondering what’s next, I can help. I can tune in to the core issue, support you through the confusion, and help you develop a clear and manageable plan to move forward. The Emotion Code (TEC) can also help you feel lighter by releasing trapped emotions. TEC is the simplest, quickest, and most efficient healing method in energy psychology today. Trapped emotions can even be passed down (inherited), or trapped in utero (prenatal). The Emotion Code clears our emotional baggage without having to relive past experiences.

We all want to be heard and to have a place of validation as we navigate life issues. Knowing someone is there to listen and support as we accept difficult circumstances or make decisions for change can help us move through these challenging times. Areas of focus are anxiety, depression, coping strategies, workplace issues, caregiver burnout, palliative/end of life, grief and loss, chronic pain and illness.
