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 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.

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.

Psychotherapy is talk-based therapy to help us explore any areas of concerns in which you may be experiencing difficulties. The therapeutic relationship between you and your therapist is one of exploration, support, and vulnerability to help you live a life aligned with your passions and goals. Taking the first step can feel daunting and I am here to help support you through this journey. Schedule a free 15-minute consultation with me to see if I am the proper fit for your journey.

When you feel overwhelmed by your problems and unable to cope, you may benefit from psychotherapy. Psychotherapy I provide, helps with a range of different challenges: from depression, anxiety, phobias, bipolar and low self-esteem to addiction and family conflicts. In the process, you’ll learn how to cope with difficult situations in a more adaptive way, understand yourself better, your own goals and values, develop skills for improving relationships and overcome specific problems such as eating disorder, depression or phobias among others. I work from a variety of modalities: cognitive behavioural therapy, interpersonal therapy, mindfulness, narrative, solution focused, family therapy

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.

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.

Clients benefit from attending psychotherapy with me because I bring a trauma-informed, compassionate presence that fosters safety and trust. When life feels overwhelming, confusing, or heavy, I offer a genuine connection where clients feel cared for, seen, and supported. My trauma-informed approach means moving at a pace that feels safe, honouring each person’s story, and creating space for emotions that may feel too difficult to share elsewhere. Together, we explore identity, purpose, and the possibility of living with greater clarity and ease. Clients often discover what self-compassion truly feels like while building resilience, finding meaning, and reconnecting with a deeper self.

My primary approach to working with clients is Relational Psychotherapy. "Relational therapists help clients understand, on the one hand, their own patterns of thoughts and feelings about themselves, and on the other hand, the power of significant relationships, past and present, to shape this self-experience. Relational therapy strengthens and transforms a client's sense of self, which in turn enhances his or her confidence and well-being in the world." In other words, as a relational psychotherapist, I will be with you as you explore your life, your sense of self, and your relationships with others.
