Couples Therapists in Toronto, ON

A collaborative, non-judgemental, and compassionate therapeutic relationship is important for you to comfortably share what has been most distressing for you. I provide psychotherapy to individuals experiencing issues relating primarily to anxiety, depression, interpersonal relationships, self-esteem, and trauma, and to couples seeking better communication, trust, and security. My practice is inclusive, as I work with diverse problems, histories and identities, and ensure my approaches are catered to fit your needs. I hope to guide you through your journey towards a healthier life and empower you to become your most authentic self.

I work from a model of health, balance and empathy by bringing into awareness the places where we get stuck and our unique ways of getting there. You know best when your patterns of coping are no longer working. A therapist's job is to support you in creating positive shifts in your life. This support may sometimes feel frustrating, especially when our familiar patterns of functioning are being challenged. I incorporate art, humour and paradox in sessions allowing for a creative, spontaneous exploration of your needs, contradictions and feelings and by providing a safe space where new possibilities and hope are possible.
