I believe that people are incredibly resilient. Often, the struggles we face are not signs that we are broken, but rather evidence of the ways we've learned to adapt, survive, and make sense of difficult experiences. My role is to help clients better understand those patterns, reconnect with themselves, and discover new pathways toward healing and growth.

I see those who are overwhelmed and tired of having to mask their emotions/identity and deny their needs. They’ve lived with complex trauma, grief, or chronic stress—and they’re ready for something deeper. For children, they often need help processing what they cannot articulate- processing also doesn’t have to be verbal. Some need support in managing their responses to the fixed environment. They welcome creative, embodied approaches that bring lasting change. They want to feel grounded, connected, and heard. They’re ready to do the work—they just need a space that honours their uniqueness with skill, compassion, and respect.

When should I seek treatment for anxiety?
Everyone feels anxious at times, but when anxiety causes disruption to your daily life, it may be time to seek help. Such disruption can be mental, physical, or both: having fear dominate your thoughts, avoiding situations or objects that bring on feelings of anxiety, or experiencing shortness of breath, sweating, dizziness, or panic attacks. When these symptoms are recurrent and distressing, it may be time to talk to someone.
What are the most common types of treatment for anxiety?
Talk therapy, particularly cognitive behavioural therapy, is the most common treatment for anxiety. Studies have shown it is equally effective as medication. Other forms of therapy are popular, depending on a patient’s experience. Exposure therapy, for instance, can be useful for people dealing with fears and phobias, or who have experienced traumatic events. Dialectical Behavioural Therapy may be useful for patients who need help with emotion regulation. Anxiolytic medications, like benzodiazepines, can also help with calming a person enough to focus on the skills they’ve learned, and physical exercise has been shown to help symptoms of anxiety across the board.
How long does therapy for anxiety take to work?
The amount of time needed to alleviate symptoms depends on the severity of a person’s condition. Some therapies may take 5-20 weekly sessions to show results. Anti-depressant medications typically take two to four weeks before a benefit is felt. Anti-anxiety medications are felt typically within 20-30 minutes. Medications are best used to offer a patient a better headspace in which to work on techniques learned in therapy. Exercise, improved sleep habits, and meditation are effective, but takes weeks or months to show results.
How effective is treatment for anxiety?
Treatment for anxiety has been shown to be moderately to highly effective, according to a large body of psychology studies and analyses. For some people, treatment using CBT or exposure therapy alone is effective. Others respond best to a combination of medication and therapy.
