Find a Therapist in London, Ontario.

My approach is integrative. I follow the school of thought, prominent in the American Psychological Association, that holds that there are a number of factors involved in successful therapy: establishment of the collaborative therapeutic relationship; enlistment of the autonomous self-healing tendencies of the client; skill of the therapist (listening accurately, understanding client background); understanding of specific approaches for specific presenting issues (e.g. a different approach will be taken to chronic depression than to acute adjustment issues); and general skill and knowledge by the therapist of change principles.

I have been providing psychotherapy since 1996. Through psychotherapy, I have been able to help individual, couples and families to address their challenges/problems and achieve their therapy goals. My approach is client-centred, solution-focused, and using cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) techniques. Through psychotherapy, I can help you to improve your thinking, feelings and/or behavior.

As a psychotherapist, I believe the relationship that develops between client and therapist is one of the most important factors in achieving a positive outcome in therapy. I encourage you to use the relationship we build with each other as a place to discover your self and experiment with change. I provide you with a safe, warm and confidential setting for you to open up and share the stories of your life. While we explore the many areas of your past and current life struggles, we also pay attention to present opportunities for growth.

As a Certified Counsellor I can help improve the quality of your life and relationships by giving you the necessary tools for growth. Counselling can help you understand and change unhealthy behaviour, help you find clarity for direction, assist in working through a crisis, be a strength in time of loss, help you learn better coping skills, strengthen self esteem and confidence, or repair or strengthen relationships. I will partner with you and offer a safe, open place to grow and change and I'll teach you the tools you need to do the work.

I've heard a lot of people tell me that they thought "therapy was only for crazy people". It's not. Psychotherapy can keep you from going crazy! Having a trained professional to assist you in making sense of your life can be a very "un-crazy" thing to do. Besides, the process can actually be fun and enjoyable. In additon, I offer body-oriented psychotherapy which integrates the awareness of the body in helping you to manage intense emotions or physical symptoms.

It has always been my belief that no particular therapy is equally applicable to every client, and so use a variety of methods based on the client's needs. It's my belief that one of the fundamental pieces missing from most approaches to human psychology is that the spiritual aspect is ignored, and so work with clients also combines a spiritual perspective where appropriate and desired. I work with clients on various issues, but have found that mindfulness exercises have a tremendous and positive impact and have used this approach with clients for close to 20 years. I look forward to working with you...

I utilize Relational Psychodynamic Therapy in counselling sessions, maintaining an awareness on how my relationship with the client affects her/him and how the client is affecting myself as therapist. These can be very helpful clues to understanding relational patterns in a client's life, making it possible to then explore these patterns and find avenues to create healthy relationships and a balanced self.

When life is difficult, pressing and you've lost your joy, you need a caring person to help guide you back. Therapy with me can help you pinpoint what has been troubling you and begin to heal and rebuild. With 13 year experience in mental health counselling, I have the experience, intuitive wisdom and training to help you understand yourself and create a brighter, happier and more hopeful future.

James Hillman once said, "We've had a hundred years of psychotherapy and the world is getting worse." While there are many occasions where the validation and listening endemic to psychotherapy makes sense, there are times where we over assume that "feeling better" and "changing behavior" are the same. Grey Matters International, Inc. goes after the forgotten brain laws to behavior change that therapists miss when processing hours and hours of dialogues with people. Utilizing a cutting edge technology to facilitate the emotional process of change, we can make the therapy process way more effective, faster, and with less money spent.

Psychotherapy provides an opportunity to explore the challenges you are facing in a safe, non-judgmental space. As you share your experiences, we will be looking for adaptive and maladaptive patterns of thinking, feeling and/or behaving to move in a more helpful direction. I may ask questions that lead to better understanding of your current struggles and potential solutions. Increasing awareness and understanding of emotions and body sensations may also help to live a more integrated and authentic life.

My role as your therapist is to assist you to explore, reflect and accept yourself. From the safe haven of therapy you probe what you feel, know and maybe fear. It is an in-depth conversation with me but even more with yourself. Through this you reach new perspectives: awareness, feelings, thoughts, intentions plus better understandings of what has happened in your life. From there you can make changes towards healthier actions - calmer and in a more balanced, assertive position in relation to others and yourself. Such personal learning can certainly be done without a therapist - they just assist. Like hiring any consultant, it should certainly be you who is in charge of this journey.

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.
