Find a Therapist in Muskoka, Ontario.

Sometimes therapy is not about a single problem, but about wanting things to feel different. You may feel stuck in patterns that affect your relationships, emotions, confidence, or ability to feel fully connected in life. My connection-first approach focuses on helping you better understand yourself while building healthier ways of coping, communicating, and relating to others. Therapy with me is collaborative, supportive, and focused on meaningful change that feels realistic in everyday life.

When something in your life will not shift no matter how hard you try to reason your way out of it, the right kind of therapy can make the difference. I work in several proven approaches, including cognitive behaviour therapy, psychodynamic therapy, person-centred therapy, and existential therapy, and I match the approach to you rather than the other way around. If you want to work with someone with deep training and long experience, I have been a psychologist since 1986. I am based in Calgary and see clients across Alberta, Ontario, Quebec, Nova Scotia, and New Brunswick by secure video.

There can be lifelong benefits to pursuing psychotherapy. Many people experience personal insights and significant improvement in their overall mood.

I believe one of the most important contributing factors to successful psychotherapy is your relationship with your therapist. Therefore my approach is some what different than most. I do not hesitate to interject, to ask questions, or to add my perspective to the subject. I feel therapy is very much a collaborative effort and that together we think, ponder, question and examine what is happening. It is not all left up to you to 'figure things out'., I will always give you my professional opinion and together we will question and discuss my ideas and theories. Our ultimate goal is for you to overcome the challenges life has thrown at you and to grow stronger and more confident as well
