Online Counselling for Mississauga

I believe balance in our lives is essential to living happy, healthy lives. Sometimes this balance can be thrown off by life circumstances, our busy lives, or our desire to be helpful to our friends and family. In our work together, we can explore all of these challenges and can develop a plan to restore balance. I also believe that the client is the expert in their life. I am willing to be the expert on the different factors that can contribute to a person’s emotional well-being and mental health. Together, we can explore the strategies that will fit your personality and lifestyle.

I consider it a privilege to support people navigating through challenges in life. Are you a young adult struggling with the transition to independence? Are you a parent of a youth wondering how to best support your child in this process? Or are you a person/couple struggling through your journey with infertility? If so, I have over 20 years experience counselling emerging adults, their parents and those trying to grow their families. I also provide counselling to individuals and couples using donor conception to start/grow their families and will provide reports to their respective fertility clinics as needed.

If you want to talk to someone about something difficult, I can be that person for you. You can find a safe place with me, where you won't be judged, where you and I will work together to obtain your goals in a collaborative partnership, and I'm honoured to walk alongside you.

I believe that challenges can be beautiful, albeit deeply painful, opportunities to create a life you feel inspired to live There is hope in every situation, and often life’s greatest lessons are learned during its biggest obstacles. Life's not always easy. Hardships and transitions can blindside you and leave you feeling like you’re just trying to survive, and on autopilot. And then the questions come: Who am I? How did I get here? The life you have doesn’t reflect the one you imagined. While we can not change the past, we can choose to create meaning in our experiences, and determine how its legacy comes forward with us.

***ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS: IN-PERSON & PHONE/VIDEO*** We believe that there is good in every person, and hope in every situation. We have helped individuals, couples, and families heal, grow, and connect. As relational therapists, we appreciate the impact that our relationships have on our well-being. We do not see clients as having something wrong with their minds that necessarily needs to be fixed. Rather, we see our clients as unique individuals, each with their own stories and perspectives, embedded in important relationships and contexts that impact them. We see strengths and we see hope, even when it feels like there is none.
