Therapists in L6H

Are you seeking support and guidance to navigate life's challenges and find a path towards healing and growth? At my practice, I extend a warm and understanding hand to individuals who are grappling with a wide spectrum of concerns, including anxiety, ADHD, chronic illness, depression, adolescent emotional and behavioral difficulties, pregnancy and postpartum mental wellness, self-injurious behavior, sleep issues, stress management, coping strategies, motor vehicle accidents, and trauma. My approach to psychotherapy is deeply rooted in compassion, acceptance, loving kindness, and mindfulness.

You are capable and bright. You are ambitious and perseverant. But there are so many demands on your life, so many responsibilities. In juggling all the balls- children, spouse, your career, the house chores, friends- you find yourself exhausted and drained, and not just physically, but emotionally and mentally. All the sleep in the world does not seem to cut it. All the self care advice in your IG feed does not make a difference. You know you need to find a better way to live life, but where to get started? Is therapy the answer? Life coaching? Better self care? How about all of the above? Awareness + tools and techniques +action!

I aspire to help you on a quest for empowering yourself and your well-being so that you can deploy your full potential.

Impacted by excessive Distress, Anxiety, Panic Attacks, Phobias, Relationship Issues, Stress, Anger, Depression, Sleep discomfort, PTSD, or Work-Related Issues? Are you feeling stressed out, burnt out & overwhelmed because you overthink & suppress? Can't communicate safely and feel trapped? Scared of confrontation & choose avoidance? The built-up emotions, cultural or family beliefs, identity issues, or indecisiveness causing chaos for you? How about trusting yourself? Has it turned into self-doubt & self-sabotage? I understand the emotional confusion, and for that reason, I hold a non-judgmental, private, and safe space for you.

Thank you for taking this first step in therapy and self-growth. Starting is the most difficult part.If you're ready to explore, grow, and make positive changes, I'm here to support you on this journey. Together, we can work towards a better understanding of yourself and find effective strategies for feeling, thinking, and acting in ways that reflect your true potential.

You might be looking to increase psychological fitness, or make sense of past wounds, or make a change in your present way of being in the world – I offer a safe, non judgmental and supportive space to facilitate your healing. My work is to help you experience who you truly are, harness your personal strength and overcome your challenges. I work with a firm belief in the resilience of the human spirit and this belief is supported by a solid educational base, a multi-cultural variety of life experience, and a range of counselling skills and tools that makes it possible for me to meet your individual needs.

While psychological therapy can address some deep and painful issues, it doesn't need to be all about pain and suffering. In fact, it is often more about understanding yourself and others differently. It is about learning how to cope with challenging situations such as relationship dissatisfaction, uncertainty over the future, transitioning from one situation to another, handling strong emotions like fear, loss, or anger, and healing pains from the past. These universal experiences can be overwhelming. I can help you navigate them more smoothly and set yourself up for success on the other side of it.

My ideal client is an individual who wants to make a change in their lives. They are willing to be committed to our time together, but also one that is committed to the process outside of our sessions together. They may be struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, or even relationship issues. Their needs might include being heard, managing their symptoms of anxiety, and/or depression, someone who wants to attain their goal and is willing to put in the work to achieve it.

Therapy is an opportunity to solve problems, improve coping, and build a more enhanced quality of life. In therapy, my aim is to build a strong relationship with clients, one that is based on principles of trust, transparency, and collaboration. I strive to create an atmosphere that will help you to feel safe, supported, and challenged in the areas that will foster your growth.

We help many children, teens, adults, couples and families. It is very important that everyone feels comfortable whenever they meet with us and this is a priority for us. We also ensure we have clear goals for our work together and move as quickly as possible towards these goals. When people leave our centre, they have clear tips and tools to use to maintain the benefits they have gained. The primary treatment we provide for individuals is Cognitive-Behaviour Therapy (CBT). With couples, we use EFT. With some children we include play therapy. With all clients, we also use other styles to assist as necessary.

Reaching out for support can be a very challenging task but it is also the first step to get you closer to living your preferred life. In therapy, we will work together to clarify your life's vision, explore what is getting in the way of you reaching your goals, identify what skills and strengths you have to overcome these barriers, while also learning new skills and ways of thinking. During this process, I am committed to creating a respectful space where you will feel heard, acknowledged, supported and understood. I work with clients of all ages, backgrounds and identities and strive to create a safe and inclusive space for all.
