Psychotherapy allows for personal challenges to be addressed. Through a warm, therapeutic relationship in which individuals, couples, and families are permitted to discuss these issues, my aim is to assist in resolving them. Although many forms of therapy exist to do so, sensitivity will be provided to ensure the client ultimately dictates which ones are to be used. Whether it is amending destructive thoughts, accepting thoughts and feelings that are beyond our control, or utilizing strengths within to formulate new solutions, therapy will be structured to facilitate therapeutic goals in the manner most beneficial to the client.

Psychotherapy is counselling process that delves into deeper and often hidden (subconscious) issues that influence our perceptions and beliefs. In turn this influences our behaviours. Often our patterns originate in our family of origin where we internalize beliefs about self and others. The collaborative process will help you understand your current reality and how to deal with it effectively. Negative beliefs translate into maladapted behaviours that cause distress and anxiety. I will guide you through this process to gain new insights and understanding and learn more effective coping with your current distress.

Psychotherapy can be life-changing; you may need a few sessions or more in-depth work, but we will collaborate to meet your needs. There are many types of psychotherapy, all of which involve talking to someone you can confide in and trust to have your best interests at heart. I offer a person-centred approach to meet your unique needs and work with you on your best strategy for meeting life’s challenges.

Our approach to psychotherapy is rooted in the principles of EMPATHY & EVIDENCE. We not only know from experience what you're going through, we understand the science behind the mental health victories which will ultimately elevate your life.

In terms of therapeutic approaches, we employ elements of the following approaches: Narrative Therapy; Person-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy; Motivational Interviewing; and many other evidence-based approaches.

If therapy were to be successful for you, what would be different in your life? How would you know that this process was a good use of your time and money? - How you answer those questions is very important, those answers set the (initial) destination as we set out on this journey together. Client directed therapy means that your goals are the compass that guides our work, and we will regularly check in to assess what is working and not working in helping you reach those goals. Every client is different, and our work will be built on proven modalities and techniques, while also being specific to you.

Clarity is everything! Psychotherapy for me is the process in which we help an individual bring clarity to their life. Stress, dysfunctional relationships, childhood neglect or trauma, loss or rejection, failure and crisis can all send us reeling. We lose our focus. We get off track. We become disoriented and lose our centre. Sometimes Psychotherapy is a process in which we reclaim our selves. In other cases we re-create ourselves, and yet in other cases we over come ourselves. Once we see clearly we begin to place the stepping-stones of intentional behaviour as we write our next chapters . . . now with clarity.

Psychotherapy is an exploratory process that takes place in the context of trust and respect. Its is my intention to create a safe space, to explain the process carefully and mindfully so that each client can contribute to creation of their therapeutic plan. My work is done through remaining non-judgmental , showing compassion and viewing each client as the expert on their own life. My therapeutic style is curious, relaxed and flexible. My clients generally benefit by feeling welcomed and put at ease early in our relationship.

My approach combines Dialetical Behaviour Therapy; Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy; Interpersonal and Emotion-Focussed Therapy. That said, I meet clients where they are and so, tailoring is always part of the process, which amounts to a therapeutic conversation. Compassion, non-judgement, validation and a willingness to sit with the discomfort and see and hear you is what I do best.

There are several approaches to psychotherapy — including cognitive-behavioural, interpersonal and other kinds of talk therapy — that help individuals work through their problems. At Meristem, we utilize an eclectic approach to psychotherapy that incorporates a variety of therapeutic principles and theories in order to create the ideal treatment program to meet the specific needs of our clients. We encourage a collaborative approach that enhances the client/therapist relationship. We strive to model positive behaviours and an empathic atmosphere that builds trust and safety within the counselling relationship.

Sometimes we don't feel connected. Not only to our partners and family but to life in general. We feel like we are searching for some elusive ideal which we can neither explain or label, leaving us feeling like we are wandering in circles. Using a Jungian and Adlerian approach and dream analysis, I have found that people have been able to break free from the role of the nomad. This approach can require a much longer commitment from clients who are seeking a deeper epiphany about themselves and their lives.

My approach includes using strength-based, client centred therapies in practice and recognizing that clients are resilient and have the ability to connect with themselves to find answers to any of life’s problems. Other modalities which are helpful include solution focused brief therapy and narrative therapy, whereby clients are able to recognize and build on their hopes. Clients will benefit from psychotherapy, as their negative thoughts will be challenged, resulting in decreased self-blame.

I provide a safe & non-judgmental environment for clients to open up on all issues, even deeply buried ones (from early childhood to present), so I can get a sense of the whole picture, ask the right questions, and come up with an effective treatment plan. I’ve successfully worked with many individuals & couples who others had given up on, since they weren’t able to go deep enough. This has allowed me to especially help people who are struggling with emotional or sexual trauma, incest, abuse, porn or sex addiction, sexual dysfunction, intimacy issues & taboos & fears which trap them in shame. I’ve also helped couples heal from deep wounds such as infidelity and build stronger relationships.

I am here to support you. My task is neither to “improve”, nor to “remake” you. I cannot replace you, I cannot act and live on behalf of you.

At The Therapy Place of Oakville, I see psychotherapy as a safe place to openly discuss your thoughts and feelings and to gain insights into patterns of behaviour and emotions that might be limiting you, and keeping. you "stuck". When you do psychotherapy with me, we go beyond just talking about your "stuff" - we identify and name what's not working, we look at ways to challenge your well-entrenched patterns of being and thinking, and we cultivate skills to help you grow and lead a more satisfying life. Psychotherapy is appropriate for lots of life's challenges including depression, anxiety, relationship issues and for those times in life when we just need some support and guidance.

With a compassionate and deep interest in your personal story I join with you in a unique dialogue.

It is from this place of “thriving,” life shifts and there is change.

Beginning with a warm and trusting relationship, an environment is built in which we can set realistic, measurable goals in order to work toward your health. I use an integrated approach to therapy which means that which includes family systems, cognitive-behavioural and psychodynamic therapy as well as spirituality. I attempt to be flexible enough to accommodate your needs while creating enough structure to help you consistently move toward your goals. I am a relational person and am not afraid to be myself in therapy.

Although often used interchangeably there are some subtle differences between counselling and psychotherapy. Counselling can be thought of as relatively short term with an individual seeking out solutions to a particular issue they are dealing with. It is often concerned with an individual’s behaviour, targeting a particular symptom or problem situation, and is supportive. Psychotherapy, on the other hand, is usually longer term, focusing more on physical and/or emotional problems which either persist for some time or keep recurring. Rather than dealing with a specific problem, psychotherapy challenges an individual’s belief systems and core values.
