In addition, I have completed 5 years of training in Gestalt Therapy at the Gestalt Institute of Toronto.
I am a registered psychotherapist (RP) and my therapy is an invitation for you to work with me in a supportive, caring and non-judgmental environment so that you can connect at a deeper level with your true and authentic being. This, according to Rollo May, “always involves the search for our values and purposes” because without “values there would be only barren despair." I believe that principles of respect, care and knowing are of fundamental importance when we work to support someone who is trying to make a change, realize their abilities, and connect with their own uniqueness and individuality.

I practice Gestalt therapy, an approach focused on strengthening your self-awareness and self-confidence.
Life brings each of us different challenges. But we all get stuck in our ways, and seek change. Psychotherapy can help you better understand and ultimately transform such difficult situations. Some common themes I work with include the following. Relationship troubles: people pleasing, loneliness, difficulty expressing yourself, etc.
Anxiety: work stress, social anxiety, feeling stuck or paralyzed, etc.
Low self-esteem: shame, self-doubt, not feeling like ‘enough’, feeling somehow broken, etc.

Relational Gestalt Psychotherapy is embodied, creative, client driven; together we weave support with mindful awareness.
I help queer, highly sensitive, anxious, depressed, traumatized, overwhelmed, and neurodivergent folks develop grounding and calm in their whole body-mind self. We explore creative ways of being, with a focus on the here and now. I walk besides you as we discover your self-support and build resilience to difficulties. I support you in freeing yourself of your freezing, fight or flight responses and help you to build better relationships with better boundaries, creating more flexibility and spontaneous moments of joy in your life. EMDR sessions are now available to process and heal traumatic events without having to share details.

Using presence, creativity, playful humour, open-hearted compassion, and loving kindness, I will join you in adventuring out of our minds and into our bodies where we can connect and experiment from a Gestalt lens.
I believe life is a gift, but I also know how difficult it can be to access this truth when we’re stuck in the depths of pain and suffering so inherent to the human experience.

It is my genuine honour to be with you in these feelings, holding them with curiosity, openness, and love.
