Some days feel like you're drowning in emotions you can’t explain—anger that comes out of nowhere, shame that lingers long after the moment has passed, or fear that keeps you stuck in the same painful cycles. Maybe you’ve used substances to numb the pain or quiet your thoughts, only to find yourself feeling worse. Maybe you’re someone who holds it together all day but unravels at night. You want to feel in control, but instead, you’re caught in loops of self-blame, emotional shutdowns, or impulsive decisions. Maybe your relationships are suffering, you're either pushing people away or clinging to the hope they'll stay.

Depression, stress, and anxiety are some of the most common and uncomfortable emotions that we can experience (and we all do) at some point in our lives. If this is your first time considering therapy, and wonder, what is therapy like? Well, it is like most conversations except with me, you get to say exactly what you feel (no filters)! We work together to uncover what is holding you back and keeping you stuck, so you can recover the motivation, perspective, and joy that you once had in your life. The goal is to help you grow from your struggles, heal from your pain, and move forward to where you want to be in your life.

I help you get out of your mind… and into your body ;) Your body is where your memories/emotions are stored AND where healing longstanding stress patterns happens… so we might as well begin there. I specialize working with people who have complex trauma, grief, and anxiety/burnout. I have over 25 years of experience working in mental health and natural health. I offer a holistic approach (mind/body/spirit) to mental health and give you tools that work to help you shift your long seated patterns. I run my signature therapy group: Emotional Literacy to help you learn from your emotions, rather than being dominated by them.

Therapy shouldn't feel like a chore. While it might sometimes be hard to hear what is discussed in therapy, overall you should leave feeling like you've gained something useful or even transformative. Over time, you should feel you are getting stronger, more resilient and have shed layers of fear and anxiety. Of course this process can be overwhelming at times and you might not always progress on the timeframe that you thought you would, but when therapy goes well, you should feel more settled and more clear about your life. You should gain understanding about yourself and others and have a renewed sense of purpose and passion

Life can feel like a never-ending cycle of to-do lists, challenges, changes, and obstacles accompanied by feelings of pressure, anxiety, stress, exhaustion, fear, guilt, grief, and more. You may have noticed you’ve felt lost, irritable, overwhelmed, unmotivated, and or alone when these cycles persist. Daily life becomes difficult to navigate, and you begin to experience a decline in your focus, loss of happiness, and symptoms of physical distress. In addition, your relationships have become strained, and you feel unattached. You're not sure where to start or you feel like you've tried everything with little to no relief.

Life isn’t always easy. We all go through times where we need support. If you are here, something in your life isn’t how you would like to be and you are looking for support to have it be different. Good for you! Change isn’t always easy but it’s always worth it when you are headed in the direction of who you are meant to be.

I'm a licensed therapist with experience working with clients dealing with a wide range of issues including anxiety, depression, grief, and trauma. Life has a way of pulling us away from our center with demands from others, the pressure to perform, people please, to be perfect. You may be feeling the weight of past or present struggles—loss, stress, anxiety, unresolved childhood experiences, or tension with relationships in family, friends or work. Over time, these challenges can quietly wear down your sense of self, making it hard to feel grounded, clear, or at home in your life.

Ask yourself... are the struggles I'm experiencing in my life due simply because things are happening to me? Struggles in relationships, traumatic/problematic situations and unwanted thoughts do come into our lives but these struggles lie in our capacity to listen to our emotions and hear what it is they are trying to tell us about all of these things. Our emotions are an early warning system that calls us to action because we are seeking resonance (love, joy, balance, peace) in our lives. When things resonate with us, they feel right. It's a visceral gut reaction. Unfortunately, emotions don't speak English. Our thoughts do.

Are you looking for a creative approach to your own or your child's healing?
Art therapy is about gently tuning into the creative process in a safe, supportive space. It allows you to explore and express your thoughts and feelings, both with and without words, opening doors to reflection, insight, and self-discovery.

Whatever thinking and behaviours you find problematic that have become interwoven in your daily living, you can unlearn. It will not be easy to learn new behaviours, ways of thinking, and communication, but the brain is capable of forming new pathways. You are capable of change. A lot of hard work and introspection are involved, and you may experience setbacks. This is part of healing. I am here to help in this process to make connections from your past, guide you in your present and support you to take charge to improve the outcomes of your future.

Anxiety, anger, and panic are all normal and useful responses that we experience as humans. If you're feeling stuck in any of these feelings it might seem like you don't have a choice in how you manage them, and they can become limiting, overwhelming, and inconvenient. At best, you'd probably like to not experience these things at all, since it's normal for us to want to avoid what's painful, and feeling trapped only makes it worse. "I can't", "I should" and "I have to" are familiar phrases that lead us into situations that can make us feel activated or unsafe. With awareness of our needs we can become more choiceful and responsive.

Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?
Most Counsellors and Psychotherapists listed in the directory are certified by one of the main professional associations, mainly the Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Association (CCPA), and will have a Certified Canadian Counsellor (CCC) designation with their name. Social Workers listed in the directory must be registered members of the college specific to their province. To be listed in the directory, Psychologists must be registered with the psychological college specific to their province or territory.
Providers whose professional membership or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Given the considerable variation in professional regulation and prerequisites across Canadian provinces, some providers may possess significant professional qualifications without necessarily holding professional memberships or being obliged to acquire them. As a result, they may be selectively included without the "Verified" seal.

What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counsellor?
Psychologists, counsellors, psychotherapists and social workers can all provide counselling or talking therapy and have credentials and supervised, practical experience that enable them to do so in Canada.
Psychologists have a master's and/or doctoral degree and have passed both written and oral exams. Psychologists are able to complete mental health assessments and provide diagnostic information to clients as well as provide counselling therapy or psychotherapy. Counsellors and psychotherapists are expected to have a master's or doctoral degree in counselling psychology, social work, or a related mental health discipline and certification by a professional association, such as the Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Association. Registered Social Workers possess a Bachelor's or Master's degree in Social Work and where possible must be licensed or certified by the provincial government and/or regulatory college.

What type of therapy is right for me?
The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.
How much does therapy cost?
The cost of therapy depends on a number of variables, including location and the therapist’s experience and training. On average, the cost of a therapy session in Canada could be between $100 and $200. If you have insurance, the expense of mental health care is typically lower, but it varies based on your insurance plan details and whether you choose an in-network or out-of-network mental healthcare provider.
What are more affordable or low cost therapy solutions?
Many therapists offer sliding scale payments, usually on a limited number of slots, which consists in an agreement between the therapist and a client to pay a reduced rate. Therapists who provide such arrangements often consider the client's income or ability to pay, but the extent of the discount is ultimately at the therapist's discretion. Furthermore, while group therapy may have different goals and benefits compared to individual therapy, it can be a more affordable solution to address certain types of issues.
If you are struggling to access therapy due to budget constraints, you could also consider public funded mental health services. Some types of outpatient mental health services are covered by Medicare, provided these are performed by a licensed mental health professional in the provinces or territory you reside in and who accepts the assignment.

Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?
Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
Is online therapy a good option?
Therapy conducted online can be just as effective as in-person therapy, as long as there is a strong alliance between the client and the therapist. To find a therapist who provides telehealth services to clients in your area, click “Online Therapy” on the directory homepage and search by your city or town or your postal code.
Are therapy sessions confidential?
Professionals licensed by regulatory colleges and those certified by associations such as the Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Association are obligated to uphold client confidentiality unless there is a legal reason that requires them to disclose information. Confidentiality is a crucial part of the therapeutic relationship and only under specific circumstances, such as when there is the potential or known harm to the client or others, or a court order, will a therapist be obligated to break the agreement. These exceptions to the confidentiality agreement are usually discussed during the initial consultation.
