Life presents us with many challenges. Managing these challenges can be overwhelming. Learning to cope, navigate and manage with life’s stressors isn’t always obvious. I am passionate about supporting people learn to cope, navigate and manage the challenges they face. I believe we all possess resilience, which is integral to navigating life’s challenges; I’m dedicated to help people uncover the resilience they already have, and foster resilience in their lives.

There are moments in life when we face adversities that leave us feeling overwhelmed, sad, anxious, hopeless, isolated, and/or stressed. Perhaps there is a problem that seems impossible to solve. Perhaps it seems like no one could possibly understand your experiences. Perhaps you aren’t even sure where to begin. I can support you to identify where you may be feeling stuck in your life and empower you to find ways to create balance within yourself and in your relationships with others and your environment.

My name is Michelle and I created The Relationship Agency because I know that we all do better when we have authentic, insightful, and secure relationships. Most couples who come to me are dealing with frequent arguing, a lack of trust, and a feeling like they don't know each other at all. They wonder where the love is gone and don't know what to do. When ADHD is present, they're fighting over the mess around the house, parenting, and everything in between and living with deep stress, sadness, and anxiety. My individual clients struggle with big life questions and the impacts of ADHD, they're trying their best but underperforming.

We all need support to manage difficult times in our lives. Allow me to create a supportive and nonjudgmental environment to discuss the problems you or your family are facing. Our work together will focus on developing insights, skills and strategies to lead you toward the life you want to be living.

The transition to parenthood can be exciting, but can also bring on feelings of anxiety, overwhelm and doubt, and many mothers feel isolated, exhausted and alone. As moms, we've been there: struggling to conceive, postpartum anxiety, the desire to do everything “right”, the constant worry about baby and wondering if what you're feeling is normal. We work with individuals and couples in all phases of life, with a strong focus on the fertility, pregnancy, postpartum and parenting periods, and have received extensive Maternal Mental Health training and certification from Postpartum Support International in Perinatal Mental Health.

Currently completing practicum hours - Taking a collaborative approach to therapy, I will meet you where you are at in life and work with you to create a unique therapeutic experience. I truly believe that you are the expert in your own healing; I act as a toolbox for you to build and grow from. As no two individuals are the same, I tailor methods to acknowledge each individual’s uniqueness. I believe that the catalyst for change often lies in the environment therefore I am passionate about providing a safe, welcoming, and non-judgmental space to establish a strong therapeutic relationship and foster self-discovery.

Life isn't always easy. Sometimes, even the strongest people amongst us need a little bit of help to work through some of life's more challenging situations. Whether you struggle with stress, anxiety, depression, relationships or trauma, you should know that there is hope.

I work with women who are looking for support with anxiety, stress, feelings of being overwhelmed, grief and/or chronic illness/chronic pain.

I strive to provide compassionate, trauma informed, anti-oppressive care and am committed to providing a space free from judgement so you feel safe and supported as you navigate life's challenging circumstances and discover all parts of who you are. Your healing is my goal and I look forward to supporting you on your journey!

My ideal client is someone who is coming to therapy seeking help in a true intention to help themselves and grow. Despite the common theme of depression and anxiety among society, the need for help is conducive to finding inner strength and identity that correlates with a happier life. I will never turn down anyone seeking help in the form of support and the therapeutic process.

You feel dissatisfied with your life. You have lost yourself, your sense of self or purpose and your relationships are unfulfilling. You want to find a way out of this sense of disappointment, but you have no idea where to even begin to move in the direction of the life you imagined. You feel lost and alone because you are not living the life that you want. You feel frustrated and worry that you will never be happy again. You are longing to find clarity and tools to cope with life’s challenges... and for someone to see you, the ‘real’ you.

Accepting new clients - I’d like to thank you for taking the first courageous step of seeking help. It would be an absolute privilege to be a part of your journey towards growth, healing, and self-discovery. My mission is to provide all my clients with a safe, nonjudgmental, compassionate environment in which they are free to share their experiences, explore their purpose, identify their strengths, and ultimately find their happiness. Your past may influence your present, however, it does not need to determine your future.

I have worked with individuals with diverse backgrounds and challenges for almost 20 years. Most people I meet with have been struggling to work through issues such as: anxiety, depression, life transitions, losses, and difficulties with coping skills. I appreciate that individuals come to therapy because they are looking to improve their lives and gain new coping skills for the life challenges they are encountering. I am passionate about mental health and I will meet you exactly where you are and work with you to find the path through your challenges.

There are many factors in life that contribute to each individual experiencing some level of stress. This is the result of any number of unique diverse variables. When that stress becomes unmanageable it can lead to a multitude of mental health issues and distress. I can support and help individuals, couples, or families implement and learn effective skills to cope with these.

Perhaps you can't get out of bed, or worry about things from the past, present and future. Your mind is fixated on problems. Nothing seems to interest you anymore. Your self criticism is at an all time high and you can't get unstuck. Maybe you are having anxiety or panic attacks. Or you feel numb, nothing. You wonder if you have anxiety or depression. Treating these moods are my speciality. I offer what many consider to be the gold standard of treatment cognitive behavioural therapy. I've got a ton of empathy and a ton of tools in my toolbox. I'd be honoured to pull up a chair and help you sort it through.
