Our minds are a complex mix of past experiences and present perceptions. It can be confusing to sort out what is real and relevant to your current situation. Through our therapy we engage in a mutual journey of discovery to find out what makes you tick. Self understanding gives you choices. No longer will you operate on automatic pilot. Couple and Family Therapy operate in a similar way, except the work is to help family members listen and understand each other, to support and encourage each other. Families fall into hurtful habits of discord. That can be changed with effort and help.

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.

Psychotherapy with me is a collaborative process where clients are supported in exploring their thoughts, emotions, and experiences in a safe and nonjudgmental space. My approach is tailored to each person’s unique needs, drawing on evidence-based methods such as CBT, ACT, and person-centered therapy. Clients benefit from gaining greater self-awareness, learning practical coping strategies, and developing new perspectives that foster growth and resilience. Together, we work toward creating meaningful change, improving emotional well-being, and building a stronger sense of self.

Psychotherapy is an exploratory process that takes place in the context of trust and respect.

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.

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.

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.

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.
