Attachment-based Therapists in Woodbridge, ON

I have worked primarily with young adults who have experienced a range of challenges, which include stress management, self-esteem, work/school-life balance, relationship issues, anxiety, depression, emotional intelligence, difficult childhood memories, and difficult life transitions. I also have experience working with children who have struggled with similar challenges as well as bonding/attachment difficulties to parent(s)/guardian(s). I find great fulfillment in working alongside children to enhance their interpersonal connections and help provide a sense of self-confidence and autonomy.

Our life is not always easy. Sometimes we feel that everything is quite complicated and confusing. If you feel stuck and confused, if you feel anxious or depressed, if you need to understand yourself and what’s going on in your life I am ready to help. I believe that despite the difficulties you may experience in your life you know what you need and I am ready to help you in a manner that is relevant to your present life and situation.

Therapy is an incredibly useful tool that helps when addressing a range of issues including anxiety, depression, relationship issues, past trauma and more. When life feels unmanageable seeking a therapist is a sign of strength. Together we will explore the factors that are keeping you stuck. We will work together to understand the dynamics, thoughts, and behaviours that are contributing to your anxiety and the quality of the relationships in your life. My passion has always been to help and connect with others. Having a better understanding of ourselves can have a transformative affect on the present and future.

Welcome to Therapy Heals! I am a Registered Social Worker with a Master of Social Work degree with a specialization in Mental Health & Health from the University of Toronto. My educational background gives me a better understanding of how systemic barriers may impact my clients on the individual level. I have experience in providing both individual and group therapy from a client-focused, trauma-informed, and harm-reduction perspective. I work with individuals who are coping with a variety of mental health concerns, such as depression, anxiety, trauma, stress, grief, and many more.

A lot of the time, our first instinct is to seek support when we may feel we are drowning in our current struggles. The first step is always the hardest, in where we fear we will not be understood. My belief is that because each one of us is unique, our struggles and thus our journey in healing will be too. I aim to be an anchor in these turbulent times and be a beacon of unfiltered, unconditional and non-judgemental space in exploring our internal processes. In collaboration, we can address motivational, acceptance, behavioural, cognitive, social, biological and cultural aspects that can work in tandem in maintaining our struggles.

Are you feeling disconnected from your partner? Feeling they do not understand you? Not enjoying your time together? You were likely close to your partner during the early years of your relationship, but as stressors of family, finances or work have come up, your connection has changed. You have tried to resolve matters, but feeling stuck. Just like when you take your car to a mechanic for repairs, couples therapy can be helpful in repairing your relationship. It can be difficult to ask for help, but when your relationship is not working, it can impact many aspects of your life.

My Passion is to deliver a message of HOPE to people that I come across. I personally believe that Hope can light a candle in the darkest point of life. Hope is what we all need in order to have a more positive look at life in general and be empowered to make constructive changes and live with a positive attitude. With the increasing challenges in our world and the fact that we are not immune to life's surprises and shocks, our days are becoming more stressful which make us sometimes pay heavy price....

Life comes with its ups and downs, and at times it can be difficult to process and cope with our thoughts and emotions during these hardships. Together, we can work through these challenges and find strategies to help you address the root causes of these difficulties while finding ways to cope and move forward. I feel that while embarking on this journey it is important to build a positive and healthy relationship with oneself. Through increasing self-awareness and self-compassion, you can truly love yourself fully and improve your mood and mindset. "When things change inside you, things change around you."

I am a Registered Social Worker/Psychotherapist passionate about providing a safe, compassionate, and inclusive space for healing. I use trauma-informed, attachment-focused, and mindfulness-based frameworks in my practice. I have experience working with individuals living with and/or experiencing depression, anxiety, borderline personality disorder, grief, relationship/family conflict, difficulties with emotional regulation, and trauma.

Clients who want to dig deeper and understand the root of their reactions/concerns are clients who tend to love therapy with me. For these clients, it's about the experience of self-understanding, compassion, and clarity that leads to healing. Clients who need someone to understand where they are coming from, who do not want advice or opinions, rather to be heard and understood and to understand themselves better.

Are you experiencing changes in your life? Are you feeling stuck? Has there been a divorce, change in stages of life or health or someone has passed on.

I also help people with family of origin issues impacting their current life.

No concern or thought is too small or large to be explored in therapy. I understand that life can bring us suffering, pain, loss, and other experiences that we oftentimes struggle to manage. My goal is to provide a safe space to explore & process your thoughts, emotions, & life situations, no matter how big or small. I understand that each individual's story is unique, & I allow for discovery to occur in a fully confidential, non-judgemental space.
