Feeling overwhelmed and putting heart racing pressure on yourself to be a version of you that you think you "should be" is a slippery slope that can leave you feeling depleted, irritable and full of shame. It's important to understand our emotions to know what to do with them and with a million competing demands on your brain and your time it's hard to take a breath to figure it out! The thought that we don't have it all together when it seems like everyone else has all the things figured out makes to you want to hide in your bed tucked under the blankets (even though sleep is a dream) stuck in a nasty spiral of failure.

So many people come to me feeling like they’re running on empty but can’t quite explain why. Life looks fine on paper, yet something feels missing. If that resonates, you’re not alone, and you don’t have to keep figuring it out by yourself.

As a Cognitive Behavioural Therapist my goal is to help you gain insight to how your emotions influence your thought process. By helping you identify issues that are causing you conflict we then can work on formulating solutions. With this understanding we then can focus on changing maladaptive behaviours to more positive ones. The goal of CBT is to teach you strategies so that you can move forward in your life. CBT is effective with adults and children. We all have the ability to change things in our lives, we just need to take the first steps.

By the time most people reach out, they've already spent a long time trying to figure things out on their own. Maybe you're worried about your child, stuck in the same fights with your partner, struggling with anger or reactions, or navigating changes in your family. You don't need to have the right words or know exactly what needs to change. Therapy can help make sense of what's happening, understand the patterns keeping you stuck, and figure out what needs to change.

The individuals I work with are often overextended with life responsibilities/stressors, leaving minimal time for personal fulfillment. An overarching worry over things beyond their control, focus on ‘to-do’ lists, rumination over past behaviour and about the future, leads folks to burnout, poor sleep quality, procrastination and avoidance. Anxiety and depression can also lead to feeling undervalued, lack boundaries with others, ineffective communication, feeling unheard, and low self-esteem. Difficult life transitions, including navigating an injury, illness or chronic pain are theme's within my practice.

At this time, I am only accepting new clients for couples / relational therapy.
Attachment science has shown that we all want the same things-to be loved, accepted, safe, and connected. However, sometimes previous experiences have created patterns of self-protective behaviours that actually create/maintain distance from those we love. By identifying negative patterns and understanding how/why these behaviours are in place, clients can begin to heal from past wounds and embrace vulnerability, authenticity and improve relationships with themselves and the people most important to them.

Whether you're navigating infidelity, working through the pain of divorce, or hoping to strengthen your relationship before marriage, therapy with me is a collaborative, supportive space.
Many couples come to therapy when the relationship no longer feels like it used to. Communication has broken down, the same arguments keep repeating, or you feel more like roommates than partners. Maybe trust has been damaged, resentment has built up, or you're navigating separation, parenting stress, or family conflict. You miss feeling close, understood, and connected. As a couples therapist, I help partners rebuild trust, improve communication, and strengthen emotional connection. Change is possible, and you don't have to find your way back to each other alone.

Having experienced challenges such as separation and single parenting, I understand what it feels like to face uncertainty with no clear path forward.

How does therapy for people affected by a divorce work?
Individuals may feel a number of emotions following a divorce, such as shock, guilt, grief, anger, and fear. Therapists offer a non-judgmental space for individuals to talk about what they’ve experienced and process their emotions. Therapists will help clients develop coping strategies. They can also help a client rebuild their sense of self and self-worth and talk about what a happier future might look like.
What’s the most common type of therapy following a divorce?
There are several types of therapy that may be useful for divorce, including cognitive behavioural, acceptance and commitment, solution-focused brief, and mindfulness-based therapies. Many therapy types are talk-therapy based, which is typically the most popular option for individuals dealing with divorce. Cognitive behavioural therapy is a widely-used talk therapy, however, there’s no specific therapy type that’s designed to help people with divorce, and different types will work depending on the person.
When should an individual seek help due to a divorce?
When the feelings of a divorced individual, or an individual going through the process of divorce, begin to disrupt healthy daily functioning, it may be a good time to look into therapy. If a person finds that they are not performing at work due to problems with anxiety or motivation, if they’re no longer seeing friends due to feelings of shame, or if they’re not properly taking care of themselves as a result of depression, speaking to a professional could help.
How do you encourage someone to go to therapy due to a divorce?
It’s helpful to express concern and love for the individual while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Sharing how the individual appears to be suffering, and what effects it has on them or on their children, should be done with compassion and empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.
