Therapists in M5J

My style of coaching is client-led, active, adventurous, collaborative, and compassionately challenging. Using specialised, bottom-up and top-down approaches to leverage brain design, functionality, and neuroplasticity, sessions go above and beyond the standard formulaic coaching model to engage the subconscious mind, deepen transformation, foster rapid results, and facilitate positive long-term change in neural architecture.

I am a registered psychologist with 23 years experience (15 as psychologist, 9 prior as psychotherapist). I work with adults, couples, adolescents and families. I am privileged to have worked with people on issues that include anxiety, depression, trauma, abuse, PTSD, infidelity, stress, loneliness, low self-esteem, dissatisfaction in relationship at work or at home, family relationship conflicts, couple relationship difficulties, addiction, work-related problems, coping with chronic illness and injuries, lifestyle changes, LGBT, sexual problems, and difficult life transitions such as loss of a loved one, divorce, or career changes.

Core Centre Inc. provides assessment, consultation and counselling for children, youth and adults. Through our platform we provide online consultations, counselling and therapy with registered psychologists, psychotherapists and social workers. They can assist with a variety of issues, including: learning/academic struggles, behavioural difficulties, developmental delays, autism and relationship problems, among many other challenges.

Are you suffering from narcissistic abuse and looking to heal your heart from it? Are you sick of always needing to meet others’ needs at the expense of your soul because of the way they always shame you if you don’t meet their demands? If you already fully acknowledge that you currently are or have suffered from narcissistic abuse in your life, that is already a huge step towards your healed heart. A lot of the time, people who have experienced life-long narcissistic abuse have a very difficult time awakening to the reality of the fact that they are suffering from it. They are so used to the abuse that it becomes a norm to them.

We all experience points in our lives that can be challenging to manage. Conflict, traumatic events, loss, life transitions and stress can impact us. When these challenges impact our daily functioning, mood and relationships psychotherapy can help. I offer online video therapy or phone therapy at this time.

PHONE/VIDEO only. Do you overthink? Do you encounter the same experience in your head repetitively, as if the cycle will benefit you in some way? Are you a people-pleaser and are scared of disappointing others? Perhaps you are so hard on yourself that it is difficult to overcome even minor mistakes. You often experience self-doubt yet desire to believe in yourself. Lets talk. It isn't easy seeking out support, but you did it. Everyone at some point in life experiences difficulty and hardship.

Suffering is an inherent part of the human experience. In the course of a lifetime, crises happen, unpredictable challenges arise, and in response we develop habit patterns that are often protective but also inhibit our growth and freedom. Therapy will help clear the path so that you can see a way forward. I walk that path with you and provide a container for self-exploration and inquiry. I work with mood disturbances, trauma, attachment issues, self-esteem, and spiritual emergence. Depth therapy is a journey that will take you into yourself and lead you back to yourself while being witnessed by a safe, compassionate presence.

We are Human Beings not Human Doings! Finding the power to be who we want to be and feel how we want to feel takes effort and support. You are not alone. We first uncover and heal anything blocking you from being your true authentic self. Reducing your stress, worry and mastering your emotions then learning and applying new ways of being so you reach optimal levels of emotional wellness is key. Whatever it is you're struggling with, I'm here to let you know that I care and my holistic approach will leave no stone unturned. Let's work to find the root cause of what's holding you down so you can heal and transform. The time is now!

A life filled with joy and happiness is one that we all desire. Are you struggling with stress or anxiety, unsure of what the root cause might be, or maybe feeling defeated in your current situation and don’t know how to navigate your next steps? You may also belong to the BIPOC or LGBTQA community and battling internal as well as external conflict. Through our work together we will unpack what is holding you back and feeling stuck. You are not alone, I am here to support you through this journey to find peace and enlightenment.

Self-reflection is the gateway to inner peace. I believe you possess the courage and capacity to heal, grow, and achieve inner peace. Having the space to explore your experience with a skilled clinician will help you to develop the insight and skills you need to enhance your well-being. Feeling stuck can pave the way to making significant changes. I am passionate about using a mind-body approach to therapy and incorporate modalities including; Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), and Mindfulness. I have an interest in empowering people with High Sensitivity (HSP).

Booking the first appointment with a mental health professional can feel scary and intimidating. I recognize the anxiety some people may experience while booking their first appointment. And I value your resilience! You are taking a big, valuable step! I am specialized in providing a safe and confidential space to explore and process the feelings you are experiencing. My approach is evidence-informed, holistic, with awareness of the physical, spiritual and emotional growth of clients. For my personal growth, I like to do Yoga (I am a certified trainer, too), and play string instruments.

Are you experiencing a lot of burnout? Are you tired and often feeling the effects of tiredness on your body? It feels difficult to have the energy to get through the day. You are so focused on work - you put in long hours, you are getting promoted but you’re wondering whether you even have the energy to show up for all this. For a relationship or all of the other things in life outside of work. You’ve done all of the right things to get ahead but you can feel that something feels missing. Even though you are burned out, you know that stopping work feels difficult. You know you need to prioritize your health and relationships.

Do you feel lonely, empty, overwhelmed or stuck? Does it seem like bad things are always happening to you while everyone else is living a happy life? Do you and your partner have the same fights over and over again? I can help you resolve these issues. I am a warm, down-to-earth, authentic, honest, and empathic person who genuinely cares about your well-being. I help individuals work through a wide variety of issues including those related to anxiety, depression, obsessionality, trauma, dissociation, guilt, shame, insomnia, relationships, sexual orientation, eating, and identity and self-esteem. I embrace and celebrate diversity.
