Therapists in Woodstock, 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.

Hi. Aanii. I support individuals (aged 13+) and couples in creating the change that they want through an empathetic, honest, and compassionate approach. If you are feeling ready for a change, I would be honoured to collaborate with you along the path of reaching your personal goals towards growth and healing, in a way that's realistic for you.

I am passionate about therapy as I have witnessed the freedom, growth, and empowerment it can provide. I believe having a compassionate witness to our lives is inherently healing and it is an honour to be a part of this process. Our work together can help you to make sense of recurring feelings, behaviours, and experiences, and establish new ways of relating to self and others with an increased sense of connection. I am a Registered Psychotherapist with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario. I hold an MA in Counselling and Spirituality with a specialization in couples therapy, as well as a BA in Psychology.

Hello and welcome. From the get go, I know that you bring strength, resilience and things that make you wonderfully unique as a person. From this starting point, I work with teens, adults and couples/families, to attend to the areas of your life that bring you to therapy. We aren’t meant to do it all on our own. My approach is gentle and curious. In working together, I prioritize attending to your felt-sense of safety and connection. These are primary and essential conditions for healing.

Recovery from deep-seated emotional wounds is a uniquely personal journey, shaped by your own inner experiences. If you find yourself on this path, you know it's more than just healing from trauma; it's about navigating a complex emotional landscape. Seeking out a therapist can be a self-compassionate first step towards healing. Perhaps you're yearning for a sense of safety or a stable emotional foundation. Maybe your goal is to rebuild a stronger connection with your authentic self, rediscovering the pieces that were lost along the way. Or maybe you want to create a life filled with greater peace, joy, and fulfilling relationships.

At times, many of us contend with emotions and suffering that are overwhelmingly painful, disheartening and difficult to bear, often as a result of unique stressors and events. I work with adults, adolescents, families and step-families using Emotionally Focused Therapy, EMDR, interpersonal psychotherapy, and DBT/CBT within neuroscience and attachment frameworks. I encouraged clients to access inner strengths and free their capacity for growth. Whether you or a family member experience depression, anxiety, marital distress or difficulties with peers, you deserve support in a confidential, accepting, safe and caring environment.

When things don’t work out the way that you’ve envisioned, feelings of sadness, worry, or frustration can take over. You may often find yourself asking, “Why am I not happy?” and experience an overwhelming sense of grief in parts of your life that seem to have shifted. As you move through these changes, it’s hard for you to recognize yourself, affecting your communication and the quality of your relationships. You’re struggling to make sense of what’s happening around you and are in need of more clarity and direction.

Every client has the capacity to experience change in their lives. As we navigate the ups and downs of life, we can find ourselves feeling stuck and unsure which direction to take. I encourage clients to draw from their strengths as a source of empowerment and resilience. I encourage curiosity, vulnerability and self-compassion.

The smile you wear everyday on the outside is wearing you down on the inside. You've accomplished a lot, yet you still feel like you're coming up short. At the root of your anxiety is a familiar sense that you're not good enough unless you make something of yourself. It pushes you to excel at work, but it riddles you with doubt in your relationships and makes it hard to be honest about how you feel. You hold your feelings back from the people you love because you don't want to burden them. So you keep your struggles to yourself. This is the way it's always been, but you're reaching a breaking point.

Every single person will need compassionate support, personalized guidance and wisdom, at some point in their lives. If you have a history of trauma, a painful childhood, or have suffered from anxiety/depression for a long time, then this is even more true of you. Emotions and thoughts can be confusing and even hurtful to yourself and others. Some mental states are so complex, that seem to be layer upon layer of suffering. Life can be a rollercoaster and healthy stable relationships appear to be too much work! Imagine not to be defined by your history or struggles. Imagine being able to tap into joy and inner strength at any time!

Do you wish things were different? I work with diverse clients facing life's transitions and challenges. My theoretical framework is relational, using both talk therapy and/or creative/expressive arts modalities. Following your lead, I listen/witness and attune carefully in order to attend to your specific need. We start with where you are most comfortable, which means that talking, imagery, dreamwork and silence are all welcome. Although I work flexibly between short term talk therapy (psychodynamic psychotherapy) and expressive/creative arts, we safely build our relationship, while co-creating in our therapeutic studio space.

When life’s challenges feel like they’ve become too much, you might find that you’re struggling to manage work, relationships and parenting; you may feel isolated and have difficulty connecting with your partner; perhaps you feel stuck in the same old thoughts and behavioural patterns; or you have a hard time recognizing your old self. When this happens, knowing which way to turn, or reaching out for support can feel daunting.
