Experiencing sadness, worry, or distress? Are past traumas impacting your present? Feeling "different"? Is it hard to navigate the world socially? These are some of the mental health, identity, and social concerns that can impact individuals and their families, impeding wellbeing. I provide psychotherapy and assessments to assist with a range of issues including mood and anxiety disorders, trauma, abuse, attachment concerns, anger, autism spectrum disorder, learning/attention issues, addictions, family functioning problems/transitions (e.g., divorce, adoption) etc. I also have unique training and experience supporting gender/sexual identity-related exploration, coming out, and/or transition/surgery readiness assessments.

As a Relational Therapist, I am here to help you work with your lived experience. Past and ongoing traumas, destructive patterns of relating, and major life changes can all be overwhelming to hold. How you feel can be hard to put into words. I offer the safety and support of therapeutic connection in times of difficulty and crisis. In the right context, talking can help. By exploring and understanding patterns of relating, new ways of being in relationship can emerge for my clients.

My aim is to create a safe, validating, and supportive environment, in which we can explore your challenges, and figure out what makes life happy and meaningful to you. Together, we can work on recognizing and breaking out of patterns that no longer serve you, building new skills, and developing deeper, more meaningful relationships with others, as well as compassion and appreciation for yourself. My approach incorporates evidence-based therapy models including Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy, Mindfulness, Internal Family Systems, and Expressive Arts Therapy.

***NOW ACCEPTING CLIENTS FOR IN-PERSON (SAUGA/VAUGHAN) AND PHONE/VIDEO*** Let’s be honest, life is hard, and in many ways, we juggle more today than we ever have! Life’s challenges can leave us feeling stressed, confused, demotivated, even helpless and hopeless. It can be a tough road to travel, but you don't have to walk it alone. As a therapist, I don’t think anyone should feel that way. I am committed to supporting my clients with guidance, care, and connected to the proper resources. With experience working with youth, students, adults, and parents, I enjoy collaborating with clients on a variety of challenges.

***NOW ACCEPTING CLIENTS FOR PHONE/VIDEO*** When our thoughts get the better of us and we feel overwhelmed, I believe there is always hope to reach the peace for which we all yearn. Through psychotherapy, I support clients struggling with anxiety, self-doubt, identity, and relationships. We all have times when we aren’t sure where we stand in our lives and with others, so I offer a safe and welcoming space where clients can express and find themselves. We are complex individuals with our own unique stories made up of our experiences. Therapy is an empowering space where we can explore these without judgment.

You enjoy new challenges, exploring and finding your way in the world, maybe even pushing the boundaries, to explore and to expand your horizons. And yet, right now, you may feel overwhelmed and struggle to see your own worth. Perhaps you see the same patterns in your life happen over and over again. Though, you set out to establish new boundaries, before your know it, you find yourself feeling overextended. You may not know what it is, but something is weighing you down, something doesn’t feel quite right. The rest of your journey does not have to continue like this!

It is often difficult to know where to turn when negative thoughts and beliefs take over. While it is impossible to get rid of all the challenges in your life, you can learn to cope with these challenges in a way that makes them less obvious. Through therapy you’ll learn how to manage your stressors in such a way that allows you to truly flourish and enjoy the pleasurable aspects of your life once again. Remember, there is hope!

Are you always worried about what people think about you? Do you spend a lot of time catering to others? You don't seem to measure up, compared to others. Maybe you’ve found a formula to get people to keep you around except now you're exhausted and lonely. You feel pulled in different directions, scared to say no to others and terrified to make mistakes. This trapped feeling is making it harder to perform and life is scary without your game face on. You've worked so hard to reveal only the likeable parts of yourself. Even if it seems to be working, what if it isn’t enough and you’re on your way to being tossed aside?

If there is a magic word for change, it is resilience. Resilience is the capacity to grow despite misfortune, gaining strength from challenges rather than surrendering to them. It really is a vital life-skill and the best news is that resilience can be learned! That's a bonus, given that we cannot have complete control of our lives. Observing the positive effects of such resilience, I became more interested in helping others gain this capacity. There really is nobody quite like you and my task is to work with your individuality. This is why I focus on building your future strength. https://www.centrepsychotherapy.ca/
