I am a Registered Psychotherapist with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario. I hold a doctorate degree (PhD.) in General psychology. I am a certified Brainspotting therapist. I have worked with clients in various settings such as hospitals, community centers, crisis centers and private practices delivering psychotherapy and counseling for individuals and groups. I started my practice with Cognitive Behavioral approaches and after some years of practicing, I became interested and delved into more innovative brain-body based approaches that look deeper to human’s psyche, brain, body and healing.

Life is about Connections…to people, to places, to memories and things. But the nature of life is that we will experience problems and challenges at some point in life. Sometimes those challenges occur suddenly or at a time when you already feel stretched too thin. Or maybe you’ve lost that feeling of connection with yourself and others in your life. Finding someone you feel comfortable talking to is an important decision in searching for the help and support that is right for you. I offer an empathic, compassionate, and confidential place to share some of life's challenges that are interfering with your quality of life.

We all have lived experiences that tell us a story of who we are. A story of who we may be to ourselves, who we are to our family, how we are able to show up in our personal relationships, and our ability to connect with our children. Sometimes the burden of our experiences creates a story that no longer serves us. One that blocks us from the joy and fulfilment we long for, and instead creates deep feelings of pain, fear, shame, and loneliness. I believe that emotions heal when they are witnessed and validated, and new meanings to old experiences can be transformed and ever changing.

Accepting new clients! Do you feel stuck in your anxiety? Do you have intrusive thoughts or memories that are really bothering you? Maybe you have coping strategies that used to work in the past but are no longer as effective for you now. Is your anxiety also affecting your ability to be present and to function in the ways that you would like to in your relationships, work, or school life? If this is the case, do these issues then lead you to experiencing feelings of shame, wondering if there is something wrong with you, or questioning if things will ever get better?

Exposure Response Prevention (ERP) Counsellors

Do I need exposure and response prevention therapy?

Many clients decide to seek help for obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviours when these symptoms are distressing enough to disrupt everyday life. Any thoughts or behaviours that cause friction in close relationships are also worth addressing. In addition, the client’s symptoms don’t have to be severe for them to benefit from ERP therapy.

Is exposure and response prevention therapy part of cognitive behavioural therapy?

Exposure and response prevention is one specific type of CBT that focuses on behavioural change in response to triggering stimuli. It is related to exposure therapy but adds an additional component of preventing compulsive and harmful responses.

How long does exposure and response prevention therapy take?

While every patient is different, exposure and response prevention therapy typically lasts around 12 sessions, although some treatments can take longer. A therapist will determine if the treatment is complete based on how the client faces their fears, particularly the strongest ones. When a client feels less anxiety about stimuli that once evoked terror or distress, that is generally an indication that they are nearing the end of ERP therapy.

What are the limitations of exposure and response prevention therapy?

The most common pitfalls of exposure and response prevention therapy include not addressing a client’s core fears, allowing the client to avoid their most distressing stimuli, and using imaginary exposure when the client requires real-life exposure (and vice versa). ERP therapy is most effective when the client commits to the full course of treatment; if the client stops early or doesn’t practice what they have learned outside of therapy sessions, they are less likely to have successful outcomes.
