I support older adults and caregivers who are navigating new diagnoses such as Dementia , and are struggling with transitions related to their new care needs or new role.
As we get older, family roles often change. Children become the caregivers of their parents and spouses now pick up new responsibilities for each other. This transition is almost always difficult for all parties. On top of the changing dynamics within your family, there is also a need to navigate the healthcare system and get all of the necessary services in place. None of this comes with an instruction manual and it might not be a situation you imagined yourself in. Processing your new role takes time and I am here to walk through the changes with you through supportive counselling and practical resources.

I enjoy adult clients of all ages. Couple therapy is a specialty; I have advanced training, and have taught couple therapy. Even in child issues, I find working with the parents may work best. Individuals who are committed to living more productively and fully and enhancing their relationships will find me supportive and encouraging. I have a particular passion for working with elderly clients who even in their 80s are interested in understanding / improving their lives. At the moment I am working with a woman in her mid-80s and helping another, 80-year old woman to get comfortable with her computer so that we can zoom.

Whether the issues are end-of-life planning, parenting our parents, chronic illness, dementia /alzheimer's, betrayal, estrangement, job loss, miscarriage, divorce, sudden, complicated or unexpected death, aging and transitions, or empty-nesting, we experience many similar reactions to loss. Fatigue, depression, anxiety, worry, guilt, and anger are just some of the manifestations. Trouble sleeping and self medicating with food, drugs or alcohol, even suicide seems like an alternative to the pain we carry around with us. I provide culturally sensitive counselling to a diverse community.Together we can create a more meaningful life, filled with truth, joy and love.

Thank you for visiting my page. We all want to feel a sense of peace and contentment, but it’s not always easy to do. Life takes us in all kinds of directions, some predictable, some unexpected. Some manageable, some overwhelming. You and I, together, can explore the challenges you are encountering, and find ways to cope and become resilient. As an RP (2016) and as a MT (2000), over the past 20 years, I have built trusting, therapeutic relationships. The modalities I use include CBT, mindfulness, narrative therapy, and as appropriate, elements of creative arts therapies to enhance self-expression and feeling grounded.

Do you find that your aging parent is very difficult to care for? Have you noticed your emotions being easily triggered by their actions or comments? Are you having difficult conversations with your family about their care? Taking care of an aging parent can be very emotionally draining but it can also be an opportunity for inner healing, reconciliation, and growth.

If you thought you only needed counselling when you are enduring severe mental health challenges due to high stress, anxiety, grief and loss; take a deep breath and exhale. Sometimes I joke that “therapy is for people who don’t believe their problems are big enough to need therapy”. I believe therapy isn’t only needed while facing mental health challenges but also to explore deep questions you may have or to unravel experiences. It can be difficult understanding how past experiences impact where you are today and therapy is an ideal place to clarify your purpose and move away from trauma and into a growing foundation

Psychotherapy has been a journey to a place I have always known but couldn't quite reach by myself, a journey to discover a vital and energetic self hidden behind habits, reactions, and fears. I invite you to join me on this journey. As your therapist I will take my lead from you. It often takes time to develop the strength and trust to examine your most troubling experiences. Your individuality and uniqueness will guide us in our work.

Many things affect us deeply in our busy lives.  Yet we find ourselves unable, unwilling, or reluctant to talk our issues through with family, friends or physician. Psychotherapy sessions with me by Zoom, are focused, strategic, and personalized to your needs. I have provided individual and family psychotherapy/counseling in Toronto for over twenty years. Book one session a series, or intermittently: yours to design. Everyone wants change, but how? I will listen to you.

Something is wrong, but we can't quite grasp what. We search for a better understanding of ourselves in order to solve our emotional and psychological discontent. We think about the events of the day, relationships, childhood and the past. Still, something doesn't seem right. We act and feel in ways that create discord. I provide psychotherapy for people who are interested in looking for the deeper meaning behind the discomfort in their lives. The goal is to be able to have more meaningful relationships, fulfilling work and societal contributions, as well as the capacity to bear the difficulties that are part of living fully.

Do you ever feel like you woke up one day and everything just flipped upside down? When did life begin to feel so heavy and out of balance? Are you finding daily tasks to be challenging and feeling isolated or alone? Do you feel overwhelmed and unsupported? Are you having difficulties managing your stress levels? Has the recent change or upcoming change in your life been causing a great deal of stress, anxiety, anger, and/or sadness? Are you wondering if things will ever get better? I recognize how difficult life can be sometimes, especially during those dark moments with no clear direction in sight.

How can I find a therapist in Toronto?

Search for nearby therapists or counselors by inputting your city, town, or suburb; or postcode; or a provider’s name into the search bar.

To navigate between locations within the same country, enter a new city or postcode into the search bar.

Learn more about how to find a therapist.

Is online therapy a good option?

Therapy conducted online or over the phone can be just as effective as in-person therapy, as long as there is a strong alliance between the client and the therapist. To find a therapist who provides telehealth services to clients in your area, click “Online Therapy” on the directory homepage and search by your city or town or your postcode.

What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counselor?

Therapists, psychologists, and counselors are all licensed mental health professionals. In Canada, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counselor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counselors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.

What type of therapist is right for me?

Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist, psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counselor who can offer short-term, targeted support.

Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?

The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors. Many have been licensed by the country or province where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counseling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.

What type of therapy is right for me?

The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.

Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?

Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.

How much does therapy cost?

Some forms of mental health treatment (for example, seeing a psychiatrist, or seeing a psychologist in a government-funded hospital) are free under provincial health plans. Canadians who seek private counseling can typically expect to pay an average of $150 per session, although the actual price generally ranges between $100 and $3200 per session, depending on their location and the type of provider they select. Workplace benefits or private insurance plans often provide an annual counselling allowance, and some therapists offer sliding scale fees to clients who cannot pay full price.
