Therapists in Queensville, 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.

I provide a safe, supportive space for clients to explore thoughts and feelings that create present reality. My many years of counselling have shown me that most people have inner resources that are not visible to them, preferring to focus on familiar, yet unknown, beliefs and behaviours. I draw on my professional training to assist in dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, relationships, and conflict within families and couples. My aim to is facilitate healing, and wellness to move forward in life with confidence and enthusiasm. I am culturally sensitive and open-minded. Phone and video sessions provided: 416-428-6071.

As a counsellor, I hope to provide a space to be a supportive and encouraging presence as you navigate the inevitable struggles of life. I aspire to do this in a kind, non-judgmental way where you can feel safe enough to be honest, transparent and also challenged to pursue your goals. Therapy should be a place where healing can happen and you can find hope and transformation.

Collectively, we have just experienced some of the most challenging times of our lives, and continuing. My framework is holistic in nature and offered virtually at this time. My focus has shifted to include techniques such as Emotional Freedom Tapping, body awareness modalities, breathing techniques, talk therapy, visualization, and other creative coping tools that can be self applied outside of session safely. These tools can be used to help manage de-regulation, nervous system overload, to gain clarity, and to act as a more gentle introductory towards the path of healing especially for those that have never sought therapy before.

I am passionate about supporting others in their personal and spiritual growth. I help people going through major life transitions achieve peace of mind, symptom relief, and bring back a feeling of self-worth, acceptance and self-esteem. You could say I help people bring back their aliveness while integrating different approaches to match the therapy to the individual needs of the client. My work is based on the theoretical perspective that our sense of self forms and develops in relationship, particularly with caregivers. Therefore, deep change occurs through the new and intentional relational experience that is co-created in therapy.

If you are dealing with a recent trauma or trauma in the past that you believe may be holding you back and are easily triggered by things you feel should not be so hard to deal with, if you are sad or constantly anxious and worried, or if you are feeling that life is pulling you down and you are not sure how to get back on track, maybe trauma, old beliefs and habitual patterns are keeping you from finding enjoyment in your life. These things are challenging to deal with on your own sometimes but by building awareness and working through them with support and building inner resources you can live life with more peace and enjoyment.

What if your or your partner’s anger is actually a desire for a deeper connection? It’s a paradox that angry reactions push our partners/family/friends away when what we need is closeness. Hurt or fear could be behind anger. Or perhaps underlying depression, anxiety or trauma. Anger could be expressed harshly, silently or many ways in between; either way it builds walls. Whatever stands in the way of better connections can be uprooted and healed. Negative emotions and walls of anger don’t have to remain. You can overcome them and build the relationships you have longed for.

****NOW ACCEPTING CLIENTS IN VAUGHAN/MISSISSAUGA AND PHONE/VIDEO**** "I am not what has happened to me; I am what I choose to become" -Carl Jung. If you are stuck in the “I wish things had been different” mode,” and feel like there is little hope for change in your life; therapy provides an avenue to be heard, to grieve, to discover acceptance, and create a new future right now, as we work together to formulate small but consistent steps in the present. I believe that each person is unique and brings individualized strengths and skills to forge new paths in their lives and in their relationships. Together, we can reach your goals.

I believe that clients are the experts in their life and aim to act as a guide in helping them develop a deeper understanding of themselves. I am passionate about working with clients from a holistic perspective that focuses on the interconnectedness of the whole being – the mind, body and soul. My goal is to provide a safe, supportive, healing, integrative counselling approach by combining traditional talk therapy with alternative treatments, such as Breathwork, EFT Tapping/Thought Field Therapy, Mindfulness and Reiki Energy Healing modalities when appropriate.

Life can be unpredictable and complex, which makes us feel stuck in the spot that we are standing on. We may be able to cope momentarily, but realize that we are cycling through the same patterns unable to find solid ground. This can feel overwhelming, frustrating, and lonely. One of the first steps you can take from where you are standing is the ability to reach out for support through therapy. In this space, you can begin the process toward greater healing and freedom, turning your hopeless end into endless hope. While our past and circumstances have influenced our present, it does not have to dictate our future.
