Find a Therapist in Port Hope, Ontario.

I am a registered psychotherapist with the College of Registered Psychotherapist of Ontario (CRPO) and a registered social worker with the Ontario College of Social Work and Social Services Worker (OCSWSSW). I have worked many years in an hospital outpatient community mental health clinic and I have decided to divide my time between there and a part time private practice.

My approach to psychotherapy extends beyond traditional talk therapy. While dialogue is part of our work, much of the process involves tuning into what your body and nervous system are communicating beneath the words. Using evidence-based, experiential methods informed by neuroscience, polyvagal theory, and somatics, we explore how emotion, memory, and physiology interact. This process helps create safety and awareness in the body, fosters emotional regulation, and supports lasting change in how you think, feel, and behave. Through this therapeutic relationship, you can experience transformation at both the emotional and behavioural levels.

Hello, I am a Registered Psychotherapist I have 10 years of experience to offer. My specialities include anxiety, depression, life stress, grief/loss (see my website for more specialities). I have a Masters Degree in Counselling Psychology and I particularly enjoy working from a strengths based approach. I also incorporate key aspects from CBT and Solution Focused therapy.

Many people have ideas about how therapy should look or feel based on what they have seen in movies or tv, and some of those ideas can be scary or intimidating. Therapy should be a safe space where you feel comfortable sharing and exploring your thoughts, feelings, and experiences with someone who offers you empathy, authenticity, and acceptance. I believe that clients are the experts in their lives and will work collaboratively with you to explore the stories you hold about yourself and the world around you to find meaning, facilitate change, and highlight your strengths and successes. Book a free consultation to learn more about my approach and explore if we are a good fit.

I use psychotherapy for both long term and short term benefit. During the first session we will set short term achievable goals and over the course of therapy I will encourage you to widen your scope and envision bigger dreams. We will look at past trauma/issues that have created psychological blocks and work on resolving them in order to create healthy change and transformation.

My starting point in any work I do with clients is to build a strong connection between us. This done through listening, respect, creating safety, and really being present with the client when we are together. I believe this is vital to any therapy I do. I provide an atmosphere that the client can feel heard and seen for who they are. Every session may look different because it is based on the clients needs, situation, and goals for therapy.

I provide a welcoming space where clients can explore challenges, emotions, and patterns in their lives. Together, we work on understanding experiences, improving coping skills, and creating practical strategies for growth. Clients benefit by gaining clarity, confidence, and emotional balance, empowering them to face challenges with resilience and a renewed sense of well-being.

Psychotherapy will help you understand yourself and your behaviour. By talking to a trained therapist you will gain insight into yourself and awareness of why you do what you do, and ways to change it. Psychotherapy looks at what you think, believe, and feel, and how that affects the way you live your life. By changing how you think, you can change how you believe, and change how you feel.

Beginning psychotherapy can be an exciting, yet nerve-wracking, process. I commend you on taking this first step your journey, and I am here to walk alongside you and support you through it. Perhaps you are looking to process a newfound mental health diagnosis, emotions, your relationship, or your past experiences. As a therapist, I am here to support you in better understanding what is bringing you here and finding a pathway to navigating it that best suits you. My wish is that you leave our sessions feeling heard, supported, and more empowered. Connect with me today for a free consultation to begin your journey.

I work with individuals, couples and families. Book a free consultation to explore if we are a good fit for therapy.

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.
