Find a Therapist in Arthur, Ontario.

I have received instruction in a variety of different types of therapy, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Positive Psychology, Psychoanalysis, and Solution-Focused Therapy. I draw from all of these when I work with my clients, finding what will work best for the individual to address the concerns that brought them to therapy.

As a gestalt psychotherapist, who pairs gestalt training with somatic experiencing I can help support you in healing from your trauma. No one in the Niagara Region utilizes the combination of these therapies and applies them to working with couples in crisis. I am sorry to say but popular approaches to healing trauma like CBT will provide only temporary relief at best. If you want to get to the root of your trauma and heal somatic experiencing (SE) is what you need and when supported with the power of relational gestalt therapy you will shift your shit! SE focuses on regulating your nervous system. Gestalt focuses on awareness, contact and authenticity, it will help being relational.

Mental health is just as important as physical health. If you’re feeling a bit down, or maybe you thought you heard something, you’d probably shrug it off. But, if it persists or gets worse, like you’re constantly sad, don’t want to leave the house, and constantly feeling tired or you’ve been seeing someone following and you feel that your brain is disorganized, then you need to see a mental health clinician like a psychotherapist. Even when you’re experiencing the subtle symptoms, it never hurts to have a check up. Reach out to schedule a free 15-minute consultation to start your healing journey.

Therapy with me is a space where you don’t need to have the right words or clear answers. We start with whatever’s bringing you in—whether it’s a specific struggle or a general feeling that something isn’t working—and we take it from there. This is a process of change, not a quick fix. Often, the issues we’re facing now are tied to experiences we’ve had before—sometimes in ways we haven’t fully recognized. Together, we’ll work to understand how your past and present connect, how certain patterns keep repeating, and where there might be room for something new.

When it comes to mental health, there is no one-size-fits-all approach to healing. The same is true for psychotherapy. Considering your unique needs and concerns, I draw on multiple therapeutic models to create a custom approach just for you. I also believe that therapy doesn't have to be stuffy. We'll share laughter and authentic human connection even as you're gaining insights into your issues and learning skills for addressing them.

Psychotherapy is the use of psychological methods to help a person change behavior and overcome problems in a positive manner. Its aim is to help people understand the thoughts behind feeling anxious or depressed and addressing these thinking patterns. Psychotherapy will help you change behaviors and habits that are limiting you, to experiencing your fullest potential.

For over 10 years I have worked with individuals, couples, parents and families. My expertise is in fostering relationships within ourselves as well as with one another. I love conversations that draw on the importance of the client-therapist relationship, and have found this to be such a depth of potential healing for clients. I also supervise other therapists, for nearly 10 years now, and have found this work to be so rewarding. My biggest passion in my work is including nature in the healing journey. I have witnessed my clients outside with mother earth in countless moments of deep profound healing that I can only name as magical.

Human behaviour is incredibly complex. Each person has their own unique life experiences, some pleasurable and some emotionally and mentally stressful. Counselling and psychotherapy can be powerful tools for facilitating healing, fostering a deeper understanding of one's life experiences, and providing tools to better cope with life's challenges; especially when the treatment approach reflects the uniqueness of a person's life. I offer counselling and psychotherapy for adult men. Together, we develop the ideal treatment approach that best helps them achieve their therapeutic goals, equip them to better handle life’s setbacks and help them to live with a renewed sense of hope and optimism.

Life is a journey and we are presented with various challenges along the way. Sometimes we find a path forward and sometimes we get stuck and need guidance and support.

As a psychotherapist, I support you on your journey by creating a relationship with you that’s built on safety, openness, and trust. I also help you to discover the resilience that you hold and I support you in strengthening or re-defining the relationships within your life.
