Everyone strives for a sense of fulfillment and meaning in their life. All too often we get lost along the way. The grind of daily living often leads us to become estranged from our loved ones and we can lose touch with our authentic selves. We can do better. We can have integrity in our relationships and be true to ourselves. We can achieve a sense of purpose in our lives while feeling content and worthy. Toward these ends, help is available.

Virtual and in-person sessions in the Niagara Region, offering structured, supportive psychotherapy focused on nervous system regulation.
My clients are most often teens or adults who feel overwhelmed, anxious, or stuck in patterns that are no longer working. Many have been managing on their own but are finding stress and emotional fatigue affecting daily life. They come to therapy to feel more in control, understand what’s driving their stress, and find practical ways forward. I support nervous system regulation using evidence-based, body-focused approaches, creating the conditions for clearer thinking, effective processing, and meaningful, sustainable change.

Reaching out for help is scary which is why I offer services over the phone, virtual, and in-person to help you feel comfortable.
Maybe you're not feeling like yourself lately (worried, sad, irritable, lonely, stressed). Feeling like this can be exhausting. Maybe you have thought of reaching out for help, but even just the thought of that overwhelms you. Let me start by saying that you are not alone! Symptoms of anxiety and depression tend to keep us feeling stuck, creating negative thoughts of self, and preventing us from doing what we need the most...connecting. What 'they' don't want you to know is that when you find the courage to reach out, you are opening the door to new possibilities. You matter and you deserve to feel better! Together, you can heal.

Do you ever feel like, on the outside, everything looks fine—but inside, you're carrying anxiety, self-doubt, or a constant sense of pressure?
For many adults, these patterns are rooted in early experiences—growing up with instability, emotional neglect, or unresolved trauma.
I help professionals process childhood trauma using EMDR therapy, a structured approach that allows your brain to reprocess and release those experiences—so they stop showing up in your confidence, relationships, and day-to-day life.
This isn’t about just talking or pushing through. It’s about creating real, lasting change you can actually feel.

The most important factor in the therapeutic relationship, as in any relationship, is feeling safe and understood. I offer a warm, non-judgmental and open space in which to deepen your self-awareness and reach your goals.

No matter where we are in life, we are vulnerable to experiencing overwhelming and unexpected challenges. Many of us, have moved through life without learning how to manage these difficult emotions in an adaptive and helpful way. As a result, we are prevented from connecting to our true emotional world and reject some of the core parts of ourselves. Left unacknowledged, these parts of ourselves can influence our thoughts, feelings, and behaviours, and keep us stuck repeating old, unfulfilling patterns.

FAQ - About In Person Therapy
What are the benefits of in-person therapy?
In-person therapy offers several benefits that some people find highly valuable for their mental health treatment. Being present in the same room as your therapist can create a stronger sense of connection and allow for more nuanced communication through body language. Some people may also find it easier to focus in therapy when they are in a dedicated space and away from potential distractions related to home or work; attending an in-person session provides a clear boundary between therapy time and the rest of your life. For certain therapeutic approaches, such as Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR), exposure therapy, or somatic therapy, being in person may be particularly important, as these therapies benefit from the therapist being able to observe and respond to a client’s physical cues effectively. Additionally, some individuals simply feel more comfortable discussing sensitive or painful topics when they are face-to-face with their therapist rather than on a screen.
When should I choose in-person therapy over online therapy?
In-person therapy may be a better choice when you need a structured therapeutic environment separate from your daily life, when you find it difficult to focus or feel comfortable in an online setting, or when privacy at home is a concern. It may also be more appropriate if you are dealing with severe mental health symptoms that require close monitoring or if your therapy involves approaches that rely heavily on observing physical cues. On the other hand, if convenience, scheduling flexibility, or access to specialists outside your immediate area are priorities, online therapy may be a better fit. Many therapists offer both options, so you can also discuss with a provider which format might work best for your specific situation.
How do I find an in-person therapist?
You can use Psychology Today's therapist directory to find an in-person therapist in your area. You can search by location, insurance accepted, specialty areas, therapeutic approaches, and other criteria to narrow down providers who meet your needs. Each therapist profile includes information about their credentials, areas of expertise, and whether they offer in-person sessions. Once you have identified potential therapists, you can contact them directly through the directory to schedule an initial consultation and determine whether they are a good fit before committing to ongoing treatment. When reaching out, it can be helpful to confirm their availability for in-person appointments, their office location, and whether they accept your insurance.
