Canada Life | Great-West Life | ClaimSecure Therapists in Whitby, ON

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.

Do you struggle with self-esteem or managing your emotions? Are you having difficulty coping or having difficulty in your family or personal relationships? Do you need help recovering from substance abuse? Have you experienced trauma in the past?

We will work towards tangible results — improved self confidence, better romantic and peer relationships, and sustained sobriety. Therapy is a safe space to start permanent healing. I am looking forward to hearing your story and to providing effective support.

30 years of experience working with children ages 2-25 years.

My goal is to help the child heal and learn how to cope with their thoughts and emotions

Intense emotions can pull you into a downward spiral of feeling overwhelmed and lost. It is difficult to face life when you are walking around with a heavy chest or feeling anxious. It is likely that you were never taught how to cope with how you feel or understand why a part of you feels empty inside. It can feel uncomfortable to turn to friends and family, fearing how they may react. I offer a compassionate and non-judgmental space, where you can feel heard as you work through difficult emotions. I can provide you with the insight, tools and support you need to bring about healing so that you can approach life in a new way.

Are you or your teenager struggling with anxiety, depression, or borderline personality disorder? Have you been drinking or abusing drugs in an effort to self-medicate?

If you need help recovering from difficult childhood experiences, sexual abuse, or other forms of trauma, contact me to get the help that you or your child need. Together, we will work on building your strengths, gaining insights, and building the coping skills that help you build a better life.

We all need a safe space, and a person to hear, and understand us. I believe that we can tackle problems more effectively when we can discuss them openly and honestly. It’s my role to facilitate that conversation and create the pathway towards your preferred ways of living.

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.

** I am currently accepting new clients** Mental health is important to me, as I am sure it probably is to you as well. I believe that at its core, therapeutic practice is rooted in the belief that our problems do not lie in us but between; in our relationship with ourselves and with others.

Therapy is a way out of feeling helpless & hopeless. At The Insight Clinic our priority is getting you results. We focus on building a genuine, empathetic, & positive relationship with you that will bring out your strengths and move you to a better place. Whether for you or a loved one, seeking help to improve your relationships, emotional regulation, & quality of life can be daunting. It's normal to feel doubt. We use a non-judgemental approach that considers the influence of traumatic memories on current issues. This will shed light onto solutions you haven’t seen before.

Life and relationships can be challenging. Whether it is your relationship with your spouse, partner, friend, teenager, or child it takes work to make a strong, lasting and healthy relationships work. Finding hope in what seems to be a hopeless situation sometimes requires support, encouragement and assistance to envision a future with promise and possibilities.

Many of the problems we experience in life can be traced back to parts of ourself that are wounded or not properly integrated. I help you to reflect and make sense of your experience, and to work through areas of your life that bring discomfort. In moving through these discomforts/stuck areas in a new way, you release these wounds, become free from their grasp & move into more aligned, embodied & authentic living. We cannot fully integrate (become whole in our life) unless we heal and integrate all parts (this includes shadow work, healing parental and childhood wounds, ego work, sacred sexuality, reprogramming belief systems).

Throughout life we all face challenges and difficult times due to a number of factors. It takes courage to reach out for support with these issues. Within my virtual practice I welcome children, adolescents and their families as well as adults and couples. My therapeutic approach is always tailored to the specific needs of my clients, as opposed to a pre-determined formula. I am specifically trained to work with trauma, anxiety, depression and mood difficulties, relationship challenges, parenting support, anger management, grief, and self- esteem issues.
