Find a Therapist in Breslau, Ontario.

With over 30 years of experience—and a life shaped by nonlinear exploration, motherhood, music, and complexity—I humbly believe that I offer my clients psychotherapy that’s both skilled and deeply human. I do my best to meet you where you are, not where someone or society says you “should” be. I profoundly believe these words of wisdom from Jon Kabat-Zinn: "As long as you are breathing, there is more right with you than wrong with you, no matter what is wrong." My clients would say that therapy with me is a blend of evidence-based tools with compassion and curiosity, a blend that helps you shift patterns, understand yourself more fully, and reconnect with what gives life meaning - for YOU.

Therapy can provide a safe emotional space in which your experiences can be explored with the support of a therapist. Throughout my work with clients, I bring an authentic, compassionate, and curious presence and strive to help clients access their own inherent wisdom, strength, and resilience. I work with individuals, couples and families. Book a free consultation to explore if we are a good fit for therapy.

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

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.

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.

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.

Psychotherapy helps clients explore the past roots of the issues they are struggling with in order to make lasting changes. Unresolved issues from our childhood and the past can deeply impact our current lives. Past emotional injuries can be impacting our present in ways we are not always aware of. We provide a safe and supportive place to process past experiences in order to see lasting change.

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.

My psychotherapy approach is very individualized and considers each client as unique. I aim to cultivate a non-judgemental and respectful collaborative relationship.

Psychotherapy is primarily a talk-based therapy and is intended to help you improve and maintain positive mental health and well-being. I work with individuals, couples and families in individual and group settings. Psychotherapy occurs when the Registered Psychotherapist (RP) and client enter into a psychotherapeutic relationship where both work together to bring about positive change in the client’s thinking, feeling, behaviour and social functioning.

Psychotherapy has been with humankind since our origins. However, about a century ago, psychologists tried to systematize and formalize psychotherapeutic interventions and, depending on their worldview and perspectives on human nature, they created various approaches that currently exceed 400, which can be confusing and misleading. A successful psychotherapy, regardless of the lenses and title, should acknowledge that every person has a unique mind and, as a result, a unique mental world. The therapist’s job is to help the client explore this world in a supportive environment. Schedule a free 15-minute consultation to see if we are a good fit.

As a psychotherapist, I approach my client's life with care, compassion and respect. Many of the issues we face today are rooted in the past. For me, exploring those roots is essential to the healing process. Often I see my client's experience great relief and healing as we work together and create a better understanding of who they are, what they desire and what is causing the pain or 'stuck-ness' that they may be experiencing. I particularly enjoy using methods such as guided imagery and narrative therapy to capture the life and understand my client's experience. It is always a great honour and privilege to be invited to join my client on their journey.

As a systems therapist, the biopsychosocial spiritual framework for wellness plays a role in the care that I provide. For holistic care of my clients, I consider the biological, psychological, social and spiritual factors that influence their well-being. Clients can expect a non-judgmental, collaborative environment where they can openly discuss their thoughts and feelings. I collaborate with clients to determine and establish goals for therapy and develop treatment plans. Through this process, clients gain insights into the issues they have presented in therapy and learn strategies for addressing them.

A depth approach that is "model free". I try to meet and understand my clients directly rather than seeing them through the lens of a psychotherapy model.
