Therapists in Whitby, ON
Healing happens through connection, and many of us have difficulty in sharing the experiences that we face. Mental health & well-being is a challenge for many of us, and therefore, I am on this journey with you - not for you. I specialize in relationships, grief and loss, substance use, trauma, LGBT/queer & women’s identities, life changes, and overall mental health & wellness.

With a deep commitment to authenticity and transparency, I bring both my professional expertise and lived experiences to my work as a therapist. My passion for justice and advocacy drives me to create a space where clients can feel seen, heard, and supported. I work with clients who have faced social injustice, systemic oppression, and trauma, as well as those seeking to overcome feelings of powerlessness and hopelessness. I understand the toll daily challenges take on our minds and bodies, and to counter these experiences, I promote authenticity, strengths, mindfulness, and self-compassion.

As a psychodynamic psychotherapist I work alongside clients who are seeking deeper self-understanding and insight into their unconscious patterns and relational dynamics. With awareness, clients start to see the patterns that shape their experiences. They come to understand the emotional currents beneath their reactions and, in that understanding, begin to choose their responses with greater intention and self-compassion. I tailor my approach to each client and work psychodynamically, always holding the wholeness of our lives in how we navigate present challenges.

With guidance and support from a trained therapist it's possible to recover from trauma, experience a reduction in our distress, and find a way forward.

It's completely natural to feel overwhelmed by confusion, frustration, worry, sadness, fear, isolation, or even despair, especially when these emotions have been weighing on you for a long time.

With over 15 years of experience as an empathetic clinician, I’m here to help you navigate these challenges. Together, we can explore meaningful solutions that bring relief and restore hope.
