Therapists in Toronto, ON

There are times in our lives when we are in need of change, and the way we think, feel, or behave no longer serves us. I work with people who are aware of their issues and have a strong drive in addressing them. No matter what your reasons are for seeking therapy, I provide a client-centered, empathetic, authentic, and accepting place where you can feel safe to be yourself as you share your thoughts and feelings. Collaboratively, we will work together, at your pace, as we figure out how we could navigate and move past your reasons for seeking therapy.

Traumatic events from the past affecting your life today? You may be experiencing symptoms such as anxiety, hyper vigilance, insomnia, nightmares, flashbacks, numbness and the need to keep yourself busy, or self-medicated. This is affecting your work and your relationship with your loved ones and yourself. You may also have been referred to try out EMDR therapy, by a health professional. I specialize in treating anxiety, low self-esteem, PTSD and dissociation, stemming from past traumas. I focus on the mind-body connection and value an integrative approach to healing that examines the root causes behind your challenges.

The mind has a funny way of working against us sometimes. After all, we are just organisms doing our best with what we have been given. Now more than ever do we need to ensure that our psychology is operating in our best interest, and at its fullest potential.

You have had the answers all along, but now you have a fellow traveler to help you find what you may have overlooked.
