Hi, I’m Stephanie, and I am a Registered Psychotherapist. I have a Bachelor’s degree in Health and Gerontology from McMaster University, a post-grad in Brain Injury Disorders and I have completed my Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology. My background in working with Traumatic Brain Injuries has given me the opportunity to work with individuals who have experienced loss, grief, anger, anxiety, depression, substance abuse, changes in personality, and social behaviours. Being in this field fueled my passion to help individuals achieve their mental health and well-being goals.

Life is a series of challenges and the idea of therapy can be very daunting. My approach centers around normalizing your experiences step-by-step and empowering you via your strengths and goals. Engaging in conversations that appropriately challenge you and are collaborative helps me support your needs and growth. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, health changes, stress, ADHD, Autism, depression, trauma, concussions, caregiver burnout, illness/pain, relationship issues, life transitions, disabilities, etc, I am here to listen, ask thought-provoking questions, and help you develop effective strategies for your personal growth.

I will be there for you, to understand you and give you lots of room for whatever comes up. I work with people who have experienced trauma, pain, and are struggling to make meaning. If you wonder whether your therapist is going to be able to hold space for everything you're bringing, I'm a good fit for you. Whether it's anger, shame, hopelessness, thoughts of death, or things you never told anyone, I will be there and I can help you hold it. I believe in the inherent dignity of all people, and it shows. I am also solution-focused. We do not just sit with pain, we figure out how to make meaning together, so you can live well again.
