Acceptance and Commitment (ACT) Therapists in Peterborough, ON
My work draws from relational therapy, ACT, psychodynamic principles, and parts work to help you understand yourself more deeply, navigate emotions, and create meaningful change.
Most of us don’t enter adulthood feeling whole. We carry wounds we barely recognize, and sometimes it’s the smallest moment that stirs a deep emotional response we can’t quite explain. If you’ve been feeling stuck, weighed down by the past, or overwhelmed by the many roles and relationships in your life, you’re not alone. You may be noticing a growing disconnection from yourself or others, or facing a major life transition without knowing where to begin.

I specialize in supporting individuals, couples, and families as they navigate challenges such as anxiety, depression, stress, life transitions, and relationship difficulties. With a warm, empathetic, and non-judgmental approach, I strive to create a safe and inclusive space where healing and self-discovery can thrive. I am particularly passionate about supporting BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and People of Color) communities, ensuring that therapy is culturally sensitive and affirming.

I use a variety of therapeutic approaches, including EMDR, CBT, DBT, and ACT.
I am passionate about empowering individuals on their unique healing journeys. My goal is to create a safe, supportive space where you can manage anxiety, process trauma, navigate life transitions, and develop adaptable coping strategies. I recognize that trauma affects both the body and the mind, and I believe in taking a holistic approach to understand the root causes of your responses and reactions. I understand that substance use and other formally adaptive coping mechanisms often mask deeper issues, and I am here to work with you to explore and address these underlying issues.

My style is conversational and adaptive; I rely on narrative therapy, harm reduction principles, and acceptance and commitment therapy, in addition to other modalities.
We all need support and fresh perspectives; from our community and people who listen deeply. I can offer you a space to process your experiences, feelings, and struggles, the time to explore how you’re being impacted, and questions that open up new possibilities to live the life you most want for yourself and your loved ones. Guided by what you value most, we can clarify how you want to move forward.
