Life can be unpredictable. We can lose balance / feel hurt / confused / misunderstood. Our “people” aren’t always there when we reach out. Additionally, some of us seek “connection” to de-stress & some want to “be alone.” These differences can lead to feeling abandoned or overwhelmed. Therapy offers tools to foster connection, resilience & self-awareness. Therapy helps get clear & gain intimacy with ourself & others. Our problems aren’t always solved just by talking. Is it your 1st time in therapy? You can still feel safe & productive. Check out my articles published in Psychology Today & call for a no obligation consult.

My specialty is couple counselling. I originally trained as a therapist in Marriage and Family Therapy and I have done extensive training beyond that in couples therapy. Over the years, I have worked with hundreds of couples to address destructive patterns in relationships, to manage conflict more gracefully and improve closeness and connection. Our relationships are the most important aspects of our lives and warrant the greatest care and concern.

I specialize in substance/alcohol addictions, borderline personality disorder, Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), eating disorders, and mood/ anxiety imbalance.
I believe by engaging in psychotherapy, we can learn how withstand the emotional storm of life. We can make this possible through exploring attachment, childhood memories, relationships, defences & patterns. I view the change we create together as rewriting your narrative, where the past trauma-filled stories we carry are 'rewritten' with health and healing.

When should I seek treatment for anxiety?
Everyone feels anxious at times, but when anxiety causes disruption to your daily life, it may be time to seek help. Such disruption can be mental, physical, or both: having fear dominate your thoughts, avoiding situations or objects that bring on feelings of anxiety, or experiencing shortness of breath, sweating, dizziness, or panic attacks. When these symptoms are recurrent and distressing, it may be time to talk to someone.
What are the most common types of treatment for anxiety?
Talk therapy, particularly cognitive behavioural therapy, is the most common treatment for anxiety. Studies have shown it is equally effective as medication. Other forms of therapy are popular, depending on a patient’s experience. Exposure therapy, for instance, can be useful for people dealing with fears and phobias, or who have experienced traumatic events. Dialectical Behavioural Therapy may be useful for patients who need help with emotion regulation. Anxiolytic medications, like benzodiazepines, can also help with calming a person enough to focus on the skills they’ve learned, and physical exercise has been shown to help symptoms of anxiety across the board.
How long does therapy for anxiety take to work?
The amount of time needed to alleviate symptoms depends on the severity of a person’s condition. Some therapies may take 5-20 weekly sessions to show results. Anti-depressant medications typically take two to four weeks before a benefit is felt. Anti-anxiety medications are felt typically within 20-30 minutes. Medications are best used to offer a patient a better headspace in which to work on techniques learned in therapy. Exercise, improved sleep habits, and meditation are effective, but takes weeks or months to show results.
How effective is treatment for anxiety?
Treatment for anxiety has been shown to be moderately to highly effective, according to a large body of psychology studies and analyses. For some people, treatment using CBT or exposure therapy alone is effective. Others respond best to a combination of medication and therapy.
