I believe that every person is doing their best to navigate the many parts of life. When I think of therapy, I imagine someone rowing, and encountering challenging waters. Navigating unexpected circumstances requires thinking outside the box so they can reach their destination. Throughout their journey, they gain new perspectives because of both the challenges and beauty encountered along the way. I am here to row with you, entering the unknown together. I have always been passionate about holding space for others. I provide a safe, warm, approachable, and non-judgemental space for my clients to explore their thoughts and feelings.

I hope my clients bring with them an awareness that everyone’s unique path throughout life has its own set of challenges, triumphs, and everything in between. When your path feels like there are more hurdles than anything else, taking the first step towards accepting help is the one of the most courageous decisions to make for yourself. I firmly believe that therapy provides the space you need to feel seen, heard and supported through your life’s obstacles, and would love for the opportunity to work with you.

I have been working with individuals, families and couples for over 10 years now that have struggled with a wide variety of problems in their lives.
One of the bravest things you can do is begin to understand your own story." I have dedicated my life to building a practice where people can come to a place of peace, where you feel comfortable and safe to unburden yourself about the most intimate and personal aspects of your life without the fear of being judged or shamed. This process allows you to shed the layers that keep you going in the same cycles and help you start a new, more fulfilling chapter in your life. Calling a therapist can be intimidating, but I hope you will take a moment (and maybe a deep breath) to call and see how I can help.

I take an integrative approach that draws from Emotionally Focused, Psychodynamic, CBT, Attachment-Based, and Internal Family Systems–informed approaches.
You might be someone who feels misunderstood, torn between who you are inside and who you think you are supposed to be. Maybe you hide parts of yourself to keep the peace, carry anxiety or sadness in silence, or feel caught between cultures, roles, or expectations. You may long for a space where you don’t have to perform or filter yourself, where you can understand your feelings, set healthier boundaries, and move toward a life that feels more like your own.

Feeling disconnected from yourself? Like you're just going through the motions? Maybe you're a frontline worker carrying the weight of what you witness every day, a first-generation person caught between two cultures, or someone navigating grief and major transitions. Stress has taken over, and you're functioning on the outside while feeling numb, anxious, or lost on the inside. I offer a free 15-minute consultation, a conversation to see if we're a good fit. Evening and weekend appointments available. In-person in Mississauga or virtual across Ontario. You don't have to keep pushing through alone

As a mother of four teens and young adults with ADHD and ASD, I am dedicated to helping individuals and families understand neurodiversity and learn to flourish.

I am passionate about my role as a therapist. With Psychotherapy, I help clients understand and explore how their unhelpful thoughts, moods and behaviours keep them stuck. I help clients identify patterns of thinking and behaviours that are unhealthy and that keep them experiencing distress in their lives. I specialize in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) which is highly effective in dealing with depression and the broad spectrum of anxiety disorders. Anxiety is usually about future worries often associated with physical symptoms and depression is usually about some past events/regrets & feelings of hopeless and helplessness.

What do family therapists do?
A family therapist facilitates the process of understanding and improving how a family functions. The therapist will help family members develop empathy for one another. They’ll seek to understand existing patterns, misunderstandings, and conflicts that arise, in order to help the family arrive at a realistic, unified understanding and develop the coping skills they need to build stronger relationships.
How long does therapy for families take to work?
Therapy manifests differently in every family; a common time frame is 12 weekly sessions, but some families may see improvement after just a few weeks. Families should discuss their goals with the therapist at the beginning of the process and periodically revisit those goals to assess their progress together.
How can you encourage a family member to attend family therapy?
You can encourage family members to attend therapy by expressing with both love and concern the challenges you see and explaining how a therapist could help the family navigate those challenges together. An outside perspective can help everyone feel heard, get on the same page, and develop new skills. If family members are still hesitant, it may be helpful to emphasize that family therapy is short-term—it won’t last forever.
Is therapy for families effective?
Family therapy can significantly improve family dynamics and relationships. Research suggests that family therapy can help individuals understand their role in the family, communicate and solve problems together, reduce conflict and draw boundaries when necessary, and develop coping skills for stressors, major life changes, and mental or physical illnesses within the family.
