SunLife Therapists in Nepean, ON
You look capable on the outside. But inside, you feel anxious, shut down, reactive, or alone. You replay conversations, people-please to keep the peace, or pull away when things get close. The same patterns keep showing up. Part of you wants connection. Another part feels guarded. You’re ready for something to change.
These patterns didn’t start with you — and they don’t have to define you. With the right support, they can begin to shift.

I affirm my responsibility to increase awareness and understanding of First Nations, Métis and Inuit peoples, colonial legacy, and commit to strengthening my relationship with Indigenous peoples throughout Canada. If you made it this far, we might be a good fit if you’re looking for trauma-informed, compassionate, honest, playful, inclusive and embodied care. During therapy, my role is to get to know you as completely as possible by listening to your story, using evidence-based tools and asking key questions to reveal the root of what is going on.

Life transitions can leave us feeling uncertain, emotionally exhausted, or disconnected from ourselves. I work with individuals who may be struggling with change - whether expected or unexpected - and who are looking for support in making sense of their experiences with greater compassion and clarity.
I also enjoy supporting women in mid-life who may be navigating evolving relationships, changing identities, burnout, grief, or the emotional impact of hormonal and life-stage transitions. My approach is collaborative, grounded, and focused on helping clients feel understood, supported, and more connected to themselves.

My aim is to provide each and every client with the support and guidance they are looking for by creating individualized treatment plans. Life's struggles come in many shapes and sizes and focusing on areas in which we have control is a great stepping stone to formulate the life we want to be living, instead of getting stuck in the usual negative thinking that many of us get caught in from time to time.

Are you feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or alone in your experience of life?
Do you find that these feelings are affecting your sense of self, your relationships, your work, or your ability to enjoy life?
With all the daily responsibilities of being a student, working professional, parent, partner, or balancing multiple roles, it’s easy to feel stretched thin and disconnected from yourself and the life you’re looking for.
You don’t have to go through this alone. I believe healing and meaningful change are possible, and finding the right support can make all the difference.

There are moments when we may feel alone in what we’re carrying. When our circumstances consistently fail to meet our needs, feelings of frustration can naturally arise. In session with me, I take on a holistic approach to your life. I provide a safe, non-judgmental space for you to openly discuss what you are going through and the goals/dreams you wish to move closer to. I often consider myself like a coach on a team. I will always be in your corner, cheering you on, but that doesn't mean that I am not going to help push you towards the goals that you set for yourself. When you leave the session, I want you to feel understood.

I enjoy working with people of all ages who may be experiencing some mental health symptoms due to family, social, or interpersonal issues. I can be a support along side people to figure out what tools benefit them and where they are at in their journey, that can be adapted as they grow and move through life. Coming from a trauma-informed lens is critical to meeting people where they mentally and emotionally are. In applying a polyvagal understanding I aim to create a supportive and healing environment for all of the people I work with.

You hold it together at work, show up for everyone else — but anxiety, grief, or a major life change has quietly taken over. You know something needs to change, even if you can't quite name what yet.
My clients are Ottawa-area professionals, caregivers, and young adults navigating big transitions. High achievers who feel stuck despite doing everything right. Helping professionals and public servants running on empty. Parents adjusting to an empty nest, or adult children supporting aging parents through change. People who are emotionally intelligent, deeply self-aware, and ready for real, lasting growth — not just symptom relief.

You’re always the responsible one. The capable one. The one others rely on. But lately, you feel emotionally exhausted, stuck in patterns of anxiety, overthinking, or relationships that leave you feeling unseen, “too much,” or never truly “enough.” On the outside, you seem fine, but inside, there’s a quiet heaviness that is hard to ignore. Maybe you learned early on that you had to be strong, self-sufficient, or keep your emotions held deep inside. Now those strategies aren’t working the way they once did. You’re starting to wonder if there might be another way to live, but aren’t sure how or where to begin.

If anxiety, stress, grief, or depression are weighing you down, or your relationships feel strained and unfulfilling, know that support is available. Perhaps you're constantly caring for others while feeling burnt out and overlooked. Or you're stuck in recurring conflicts at home, struggling to communicate and connect with your partner, or feeling unmotivated and directionless at work. You may be processing the effects of past trauma or moving through life without real fulfillment or purpose. The demands of daily life can feel overwhelming, especially in our fast-paced world and making mental health a priority is essential.
