Canada Life | Great-West Life Therapists in Peterborough, ON
I offer direct billing through Canada Life (including former Great-West Life plans), GreenShield, Manulife, Medavie Blue Cross, TELUS Health, Veterans Affairs Canada, the Non-Insured Health Benefits (NIHB) program for eligible First Nations and Inuit clients, and the Interim Federal Health Program.
I specialize in supporting survivors of narcissistic abuse who are struggling with the emotional aftermath of manipulation, chronic self-doubt, people-pleasing, loss of identity, and difficulty trusting themselves or others. Many clients come to therapy feeling emotionally exhausted, anxious, depressed, disconnected from their needs, or trapped in patterns that no longer serve them. I also support individuals experiencing ADHD, insomnia, trauma, and other mental health challenges. Together, we work toward rebuilding self-trust, strengthening boundaries, processing difficult experiences, and creating a life that feels more authentic.

Life transitions, such as changing careers, navigating family changes, moving from adolescence to adulthood, or rethinking personal goals- can feel overwhelming and uncertain. Many thoughtful people find themselves stuck or questioning their next steps. In our work together, therapy becomes a place where you don’t have to hold everything on your own. It’s a gentle space to lay down what feels heavy, make sense of the patterns that keep you stuck, and reconnect with the parts of you that already know how to heal and move forward. I aim to help you build clarity and confidence as you face whatever changes life is asking of you.

Life can feel overwhelming at times—whether you’re dealing with anxiety, feeling stuck, going through a big life change, or just not feeling like yourself. If you’re looking for a space to talk things through, gain clarity, and actually make meaningful changes, I’m here to help.
As a therapist, I show up as a real person—authentic, engaged, and honest. I’ll support you, but I’ll also challenge you when needed.

You might feel unanchored and heartbroken after a death or a loss, or maybe you’re trying to rediscover who you truly are after years of being what others expected of you. Imagine the possibilities that could unfold if you had the right support during this difficult time. You don’t have to go through this alone.
Let's welcome all of the unique parts of your Self, and create a plan to support you moving forward. The “good,” the “bad,” and the “weird” are all welcome here. Spoiler alert: no parts of us are "bad" they're just misguided strategies.

Maybe you’re the one who carries so much- the helper, the caregiver, the calm, steady anchor that people turn to in difficult moments. You’ve handled stress, pain, and injustice quietly for far too long, pushing through without a break. Lately, the weight seems to stick around no matter what you do. You want more than temporary relief- you want clarity, lasting change, and the freedom to feel like yourself again. You’re ready to stop running on autopilot and start creating a life that actually fits. You don’t need to have it all figured out before we begin. You just need to be willing to start.
