Online Counselling for Ontario

Hello and welcome to my Psychology Today profile. I work with individuals and couples in person and virtually across Ontario, PEI, Saskatchewan and Nova Scotia. Some people enter counselling due to symptoms of anxiety, depression, hopelessness and fear. Others wish to explore limiting beliefs or process difficult things that have happened to them. Whatever you need, there is a safe space for you here. My experience in crisis, inpatient, and outpatient mental health services, as well as specialized training in best practice therapy models, provides me with the right tools to help you achieve your therapy goals.

You often struggle in an anxious fawn-freeze response with narcissists in your life, afraid to express yourself for fear of abandonment, rejection and their emotional reactions. You tend to pedestal others, people-please and behave in ways for approval but it is exhausting. Compulsive control, fantasizing, caretaking and perfectionism with people, relationships and life make you live in an arena of constant expectation, the need to keep up appearances and never feeling good enough is tiring. You yearn to feel safe and express your true self, be present and build healthier relationships and trust your life's authentic path.

What if your or your partner’s anger is actually a desire for a deeper connection? It’s a paradox that angry reactions push our partners/family/friends away when what we need is closeness. Hurt or fear could be behind anger. Or perhaps underlying depression, anxiety or trauma. Anger could be expressed harshly, silently or many ways in between; either way it builds walls. Whatever stands in the way of better connections can be uprooted and healed. Negative emotions and walls of anger don’t have to remain. You can overcome them and build the relationships you have longed for.

Do you ever feel like others are judging you? From the way you look, to how you dress? This feeling of being stared at, or like somehow you don’t ‘fit in’, can make your heart feel like it’s beating out of your chest. You may find yourself avoiding school or social situations because you feel overwhelmed by the fear of the unknown. Whether it’s the daily ride on the bus, a time of transition from the world of school into the workplace, everyone has challenges in life that can feel overwhelming. Looking for support is a courageous first step on your journey to feeling more confidence in yourself, and hopeful for your future.
