Psychological treatment involves a comprehensive assessment and evaluation of current psychological symptoms, and psychotherapy that addresses the root causes of a specific psychological disorder. Research affirms that individuals do improve as a result of psychotherapy, particularly when they are committed to the process. In an initial session, your mental health professional will work with you in a collaborative fashion to identify treatment goals. He or she will also collect basic demographic data, obtain your consent to the treatment you are to receive, and inquire as to any questions you may have about the course of treatment that has been discussed.

Psychotherapy can help you cope with difficult life circumstances, recover from mental health concerns and it encourages healing and personal growth. Drawing on a variety of psychotherapy modalities, we create a compassionate, non-judgmental and healing space for you to discover and develop your version of a happy and healthy life. Our psychotherapists work with a variety of issues, and help guide individuals, families and couples along their wellness journey using various therapeutic modalities and supportive interventions.

In therapy, I take an easy going, client centered approach to ensure clients feel comfortable when working through challenging times and engaging in difficult conversations. I truly believe with the right support and fit, everyone is able to overcome challenges they may not have thought possible. I use a range of approaches depending on client need, personality and fit. Some approaches commonly used include Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Mindfulness, Dialectical Behavioural Therapy, Motivational Interviewing and Brain Spotting.

I offer bilingual (English-French) psychotherapy services to adults 18 years and older. My practice offers therapy services virtually and in-person in Ottawa. I practice from an integrative and humanistic approach. I tailor therapy to fit each client I have the privilege to work with. I am passionate about supporting individuals who experience anxiety, PTSD/trauma, ADHD, and relational issues. I utilize various approaches such as EMDR, Psychodynamic, DBT, CBT, and attachment-based therapy.

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.

Psychotherapy is an opportunity to better understand why you do what you do and how you can change it with help of a licensed mental health professional. Psychotherapy is an investment in yourself and your well-being. I use various psychotherapeutic modalities to create a way of healing that works for you. I welcome you to start your therapy journey together.

As a psychotherapist I have long experienced that it is precisely through the process of verbalizing thoughts that my clients are able to gain a clear sense of their reality--words clarify the vagueness of ideas. And once a reality is expressed, then a client can move toward acceptance of that reality and toward understanding of how to shape that reality in a way that best meets their needs and aspirations.

Our psychotherapy journey together will always be collaborative and safe. The process of understanding complicated emotions and finding relief from anxiety, depression, fear, limiting beliefs, anger, sadness and self-esteem problems will be our journey together. I will always ask you about your experience and give you honest feedback.

I primarily use Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT) to support individuals, couples and families to get the supportive relationships they need to be safe, secure and grow in life. EFT is designed to provide opportunities to express vulnerable emotions to loved ones so that one can be clearly understood and valued by the most important people in your life. Even in individual therapy, there are powerful techniques used to safely access unacknowledged (often painful) emotions in connection to oneself and others. EFT is based on our knowledge of the importance of close bonds with others and has over 20 years of research that verifies its success. Call me for a confidential consult.

My approach to psychotherapy is founded in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy but also blends other therapies. I will teach you the basics of the type of therapy that is most relevant to your problem. We will then work to apply the therapy to your specific issue. We will practice the skills that are taught and you will be given work to do at home. You will then report back about how the strategies are being implemented at home to allow us to tweak the skills to have them work best for you! Ultimately, you will be much better at managing your own issues independently!

In all of the work that I do with clients there are some primary goals: Promote understanding and eliminate ambiguity. It is only through understanding that we can create comprehensive and meaningful change. I incorporate elements of cognitive and behavioural interventions along with a myriad of psychological principles into my psychotherapeutic work.

I offer psychotherapy (counselling) to individuals seeking to improve their mental health, relationships, or resources to adapt/respond to life stressors. I have 7 years of clinical experience treating individuals diagnosed with multiple mental health concerns including personality disorders, psychosis, addiction, depression, and anxiety amongst others. I believe that healing is possible through connection and positive relationships. My approach is person-centered, trauma-informed, culturally responsive, and anti-oppressive.
