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.

The version of yourself you want to be is waiting for you!

Psychotherapy with me is a collaborative and respectful process where clients are invited to explore their thoughts, emotions, and patterns in a safe and supportive space. I work from a trauma-informed, Gestalt and somatic perspective, which means we pay attention not only to what is happening in your mind, but also to what is happening in your body and in the present moment. I do not rush change or impose solutions. Instead, I help clients increase awareness, strengthen emotional regulation, and develop healthier ways of relating to themselves and others. Through this process, clients often gain self-understanding, clearer boundaries, and greater confidence in navigating life’s challenges.

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.

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. Individuals usually seek psychotherapy when they have thoughts, feelings, moods and behaviours that are adversely affecting their day-to-day lives, relationships and the ability to enjoy life.

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 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.

Psychotherapy is a talk therapy with proven research and evidence-based interventions.

Combining these two methods gives me a comprehensive and in-depth awareness of assisting individuals, couples, and families through their growth journey. Through the initial assessment, I will help you establish goals for therapy that are practical and achievable. Psychotherapy is a safe space to explore your any challenges you are facing.

Many people come to psychotherapy believing they simply need to "fix" their symptoms, but lasting change often comes from understanding the patterns beneath them. My approach to psychotherapy is both compassionate and active.

Therapy is tailored to your individual goals, drawing from evidence-based approaches to help you develop greater self-awareness, emotional resilience, and practical skills that continue to benefit you long after therapy has ended.

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.

I take a positive based approach in my counselling. I believe that lasting change happens when you draw out the truths within yourself and your relationships. I do not treat people as problems, as people are people and problems are problems. I do not like lables; I believe people are a lot more than what they may be currently struggling with. I seek to understand the full context of a person, rather than just focusing on a specific issue. I am a Registered Psychotherapist.

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.

I offer a compassionate and client-centered approach, fostering a safe space for individuals to explore their thoughts and emotions. Through active listening and understanding, I work collaboratively with clients to identify goals and challenges. Evidence-based techniques and therapeutic interventions empower clients to gain valuable insights, develop coping strategies, and create positive changes. Benefits include increased self-awareness, improved emotional regulation, enhanced communication skills, and the ability to overcome obstacles for a more fulfilling and meaningful life.
