Therapists in Bradford, ON

I view each client as a sacred being, capable of profound transformation and spiritual awakening. Through the lens of spirituality, my goal is to helps individuals reconnect with their inner selves, tap into their innate strengths, and align with their higher purpose. Whether guiding clients through moments of darkness or celebrating their triumphs, I have a sense of compassion and understanding which can foster an environment of acceptance and unconditional love. Some of the areas of focus in my practice are Anxiety, Depression, Trauma, PTSD, Grief, Loss, Attachment Disorders, Internalizing Disorders, Spiritual Healing and ADHD.

My Specialty is working with Highly Sensitive People (HSP) as well as those who suffer with anxiety and/or depression. The work I do is unique in that my training and background in nursing, psychotherapy, HSP education, psychology, and spirituality allows me to understand and work with clients from ​ a multifaceted approach. As a HSP and empath myself, I believe the body/emotions/spirit connection is a powerful combination ​to heal the whole self. * Please note I work with adults and adolescents 16+ only.

I offer a safe, non-judgmental, healing space, to help you understand your soul's unique journey. Do you feel stuck, in conflict or in a crisis? Are you feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or maybe defeated by depression? When you find that talk-only therapy is not shifting you, then you are ready to work at a deeper, core level, working with the implicit memory or history that is in your body. I am a guide that can help you to find your true soul essence and grounded authentic self. This form of body / soul healing and psycho-therapeutic inquiry can support you if you experience • Stress. A difficult life transition • Or a critical illness • Challenging relationships or communication problems • Self-esteem or self-image issues • Emotional or physical abuse • Depression, grief or loss • Despair, hopeless or stuck • Fear, anxiety or panic attacks • Difficulty to feel love, joy or pleasure • Addictions or shame • Accessing or managing anger, or affect regulation • Healthy boundary development or how to say ‘No’ • Emotional or physical trauma • PTSD symptoms • Disconnected or confused spirituality issues • Ungrounded spirituality.

Life can be overwhelming as we long for acceptance and belonging in a world that is stressful and lonely. Losses and transitions in life impact us in waves of grief and emotional pain. Relationships may be conflictual, confusing and at times, we feel like we are "not enough". We need clarity and connections in our lives and relationships. Conversations on the Bridge offers you a safe, confidential space to find out the possibilities of who you are at this moment, and to discover the opportunities of who you may become.

With compassion, an emphasis on safety, a gentle presence and through deep listening, I will help you to identify your goals, develop a plan, recognize your own strengths and internal resources to navigate and overcome current distresses and hurdles. Whether it is challenges of anxiety, depression, loss, trauma, life transitions, self-worth, or relationship issues, I feel it is an honour and a privilege to walk with you on your journey towards individual growth and mental wellness, exploration, discovery, healing, integration and self-empowerment.

I invite your choices, decisions, and goals into the therapy session at all times. I hope to earn your trust and truly listen to your needs so I can offer helpful strategies.

People come to me because they want to feel relief from suffering; happiness, joy, ease, confidence, connection, and clarity. I work mainly with professionals in healthcare, emergency services, social services, education, energy/body work, and Indigenous services; however, all are welcome to inquire. I understand the unique needs of individuals working in helping professions and the health and relational consequences of chronically stressful workloads and systemic oppression. It can be difficult to find the “right” therapist for those working in such specialized fields. Please reach out and let's see how I might support you.

You’re dealing with a lot; feeling guilty and confused. Guilty for not loving more or trying harder. They’re telling you these things - it must be true, right? They were charismatic and charming, showering you with PDA and compliments, but it all changed. You’re embarrassing they say, and now you feel trapped and broken. You’re not alone. It's not your fault. You Google “abusive relationships” and read about narcissistic abuse. That’s your life! You need guidance. I know this because I needed it too. I chased “good enough” trying to “behave well” for my family. After college, I married and divorced a narcissist who always blamed me.

As my teacher would say: "Our stories might vary but in the realm of feelings, there is no discrimination." We feel things, and we go through ups and downs. Sometimes, we need each other to stand tall in the midst of chaos by being received, heard, and understood – and other times by exploring the root cause of our pain. I’m a strong believer of a human’s capacity for resiliency and growth, therefore our work will be a mixture of support and opportunities for deep self exploration and improvement of your life.

I am delighted you're taking some time to explore psychotherapy. I offer online sessions and work with a client-centred therapy approach. Together we will identify your therapeutic goals and agree on a unique plan of care to meet your needs. We will work together in a safe, practical and down-to-earth way that provides you with guidance and support that is easy to understand, we will agree on changes you will be able to implement and you will have clear next steps to support yourself when you are not in session.
