Therapists in Oxford Mills, ON

If you are an “over” person - an overthinker, overwhelmed, or overworked - then you are one of the people I work with best. You are hard on yourself, “self-care” is confusing or guilt-inducing, you can get paralyzed by intense feelings, stuck in negative thought spirals, or find yourself shutting down. You may have been wondering for a long time how to turn off negative thoughts or let go of things you can’t change. The constant weight of what you believe you “should” be doing can feel immobilizing, and the endless fight against the “what ifs” is exhausting. It may feel impossible to move on or let go of negativity or trauma.

Specializing in couples, family, and relationship therapy including issues related to addictions, trauma, anxiety and depression. In each session you can expect me to draw on my years of working as an obstetrical/newborn care nurse, teacher, author, trainer, and licensed mental health professional.

Hello! I am a Registered Psychotherapist and Clinical Supervisor providing services to clients and clinicians in Ontario and beyond. As a Holistic Psychotherapist, I assist my clients in restoring health in mind, body, emotion, relationship, and spirit. I work with adults, youth, and parents. My areas of specialization and expertise include: Childhood and Developmental Trauma Recovery, Depression, Anxiety, Self-development and Spirituality, Psychedelic Preparation and Integration, Eating Disorders, Perinatal Mental Health (e.g. postpartum depression/anxiety, birth trauma, infertility), and parenting young and older/adult children.

I work from a holistic, trauma-informed stance, in which my role is to support clients in their journey of healing; body, mind and spirit are intertwined. I honour the sanctity of every human being, while seeing each individual existing within various webs of relationships with people, beliefs, and cultures. My experience as a therapist has taught me that many ailments and dysfunctions stem from an unmet fundamental need for connection, to self and others; to love and be loved, which can be experienced as feeling safe and simultaneously vulnerable. I draw on a variety of evidence-based practices, and spirituality, upon request.

If you are feeling stressed, questioning your life purpose, spirituality, sexual orientation, or life changes, getting married, moving in with someone, or struggling within your couple or other family challenges, you have come to the right place.
