Only recently have we as a society become aware of the importance of taking the time to work on our mental health. Like physical health, improving your emotional health can take many forms. Similar to a personal trainer at the gym, you may choose to start (or continue) your journey to improve your mental health and relationships with a Clinical Therapist. I work with couples, parents, families, and individuals to improve communication and coping strategies. It may seem impossible to find your way in the darkest moments, but with the right, non-judgmental support and guidance, it is never too late to find and shine your inner light.

Want to better cope with challenges related to anxiety , depression, or mood? We can empower you to overcome them, in English or French, by helping you to understand the challenge that you are facing, explore it, and better cope with it.

We are committed to empowering you to achieve this and live a better quality of life.

Do you feel like you're stuck in a negative loop? Continuously going in circles and trying to find a way out? Painful experiences can make us feel stuck; living life as a version of yourself that you no longer recognize. These experiences are overwhelming and do not always make sense. Feelings of anxiety , fear, anger, guilt, and shame can sometimes leave us feeling hopeless; like there is no way to return to the life you once knew. You may find yourself repeating the same patterns in hopes things will improve. Please know, you are not alone in feeling this way, and change is possible.

Managing personal wellbeing, relationships, friendships, parenthood, family, finances and career is a lot for anybody to balance. If you struggle with feelings of overwhelm, stress, anxiety , depression, guilt, grief, anger or uncertainty, you are in the right place and we can help you.

Suffering is a part of life. It is something we all have in common, yet can feel so alone and isolated in. It can present in many ways, whether it been through depression, anxiety , anger, and it can impact many areas of our lives such as activities of daily living, our ability to function socially and cognitively, and our adaptability to stress. For some, being resilient in the face of struggle comes naturally whereas for others, this is something we must actively work towards. Through the therapeutic process, I strive to help you to uncover your own resiliency and inner strength to persevere in the face of struggle.

Currently offering remote sessions (phone and video call). Accepting new clients. When most clients come to me they don't know where to start. Things have been difficult and they haven't been able to overcome their problems alone or with their friend's advice. My clients need someone to listen, someone who knows about the fake face, someone who can help them understand "why"; and help them find a way to get healthy. I have a Masters in Counseling Psychology from OISE | UofT the University of Toronto where I learned to use research-supported methods to help clients be empowered. Clients are always the experts on themselves.

Have you ever experienced periods in your life where you are so troubled by stress, anxiety relationship difficulties, and/or depressed mood but is uncertain who to turn to talk about the issues in fear that you'll be misunderstood or that others simply just won't get what you're going through? If so, I would be happy to work with you to explore the issues troubling you. As a BIPOC Psychotherapist, I have worked with a number of individuals ranging from ages 7 - 65+ from various ethnic backgrounds to help them work through a variety of issues. I have experience working with those in the LGBTQ community and marginalized groups.

Good counselling starts with a safe and caring environment created by the therapist. I am a counsellor that creates a respectful place for you to learn new skills and explore ways new methods to think different and solve lifes challenges, followed by feeling better. There is no reason to continue to suffer from unwanted anxiety or depression. Or from a problem that seems too larger to tackle. Small steps add up, the first is search help.

Accepting clients in JUNE. Finding the right therapist and committing to psychotherapy isn't easy. If you’re ready to develop insight, self-compassion, and skills, l'm ready to use humour, energy, and warmth to supplement principles from cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), dialectical behaviour therapy (DBT), mindfulness, and other methods to customize an approach. I work with women 16+ in many stressful circumstances. We target concerns like moods, anxiety , perfectionism, self image, and much more. I am also particularly interested in the new research on recovery from trauma and loss, and find myself drawn to that area of need.

Within my virtual practice I welcome children, adolescents and their families as well as adults and couples.

Everyone goes through difficult times and we all experience it in very different ways.

It involves an investment of your time, money and hard work, but can open up a whole new world of healing, balance, motivation and self worth.

Hello and welcome! I am a registered clinical psychologist who works with adult clients (18+ years) facing a wide range of difficulties including anxiety , depression, trauma, emotional dysregulation, self-harm behaviour, and eating disorders. I have training in a number of evidence-based treatments including Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) and Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT).

Our humanity is shared in that we all experience stress, pain, and conflicts in our lives. Through small shifts, our relationships with others and ourselves can improve when we align our inner experience, thoughts, and behaviours with our authentic self. I like to approach therapy by helping you uncover the blocks that are keeping you from living as the absolute best version of yourself.
