"Does anyone know where the love of God goes~When the waves turn the minutes to hours?" [Gordon Lightfoot]...Peoples' curiosity and courage are natural resources & forces that amplify therapy process and results. After years of experience, I am convinced that the most powerful tools for recovery are CBT, DBT (cognitive & dialectical behaviour therapy), EMDR and cardio-emotive feedback therapy... All are founded on the latest scientific findings on the neurobiology of attachment and "heart/brain" treatments. Along with time-tested healing traditions, together we can activate your innate instinct & privilege to become whole and connect meaningfully with others .

In therapy, we will work towards practical solutions that make your life better in tangible ways. Our goals for you are long-term healing and growth.

We all come to therapy for different reasons. To process grief and other big life changes such as childbirth, divorce, illness, job loss. To reach out for help with something that we have felt stuck on for so long. To feel less alone with our stresses, our hurts, our struggles. To be more present in our lives. To mend and strengthen relationships. To better understand ourselves. To heal. These, along with so many more, are valid reasons to reach out for help. You are in the right place - you don't have to do it all alone.

Hi I am Stef! Nice to meet you! Starting a healing journey is a time of transition, but you don’t have to do it alone. If you have been searching for meaning and purpose in your everyday life, I can help support you in a variety of ways.

Navigating life's challenges can be difficult and reaching out for support is often the hardest step. I am here to provide a “safer”, caring and supportive space to you in your mental health journey. I step into the therapeutic space as a woman of colour and a psychotherapist. I recognize how the systems we exist in influence our lives and experiences. My approach is trauma-informed, intersectional, and anti-oppressive. In our sessions, I encourage exploration, offer support, and nurture fresh perspectives through gentle and creative methods.

Currently accepting new clients for online and in person sessions. Life is hard and will often throw us curveballs that we didn't see coming. The work is in regaining stability and learning how to navigate through these events, and every day life, effectively so that you can live a good life. Therapy is often sought when we are experiencing a crisis or are fed up with the current patterns of our lives and are ready to see change. It can be a really scary and vulnerable place to be and putting supports in place to help you process is the best gift you can give to yourself during these times.

In order to feel loved many of us have developed patterns of abandoning our own needs in favor of pleasing others so we can feel safe in our relationships. These ways of relating and functioning may keep us comfortable but can hold us back from living a meaningful life. Our aim is to help you discover your true self, your values, needs, strengths, and build self-awareness so you can begin to set boundaries and live a life that feels authentic. We provide a warm, nurturing and non-judgmental space where you can explore the patterns that keep you stuck while building new habits that align with your future self.

Are you craving a safe emotional space to connect with unlimited possibilities? I offer to hold you firmly in my knowledge and compassion as you engage toward healing. As an adult you have a lot to juggle, so you just keep going even if you know there are problems with your foundation. Emotional discomfort can creep in and you are not really sure what to do with that. On the surface everything is fine but there is some persisting doubt about yourself. Sometimes you space out or you are brought back to unresolved events that seem to go around in your mind. Relationships can be challenging. You can't relax inside.
