Clarity is everything! Psychotherapy for me is the process in which we help an individual bring clarity to their life. Stress, dysfunctional relationships, childhood neglect or trauma, loss or rejection, failure and crisis can all send us reeling. We lose our focus. We get off track. We become disoriented and lose our centre. Sometimes Psychotherapy is a process in which we reclaim our selves. In other cases we re-create ourselves, and yet in other cases we over come ourselves. Once we see clearly we begin to place the stepping-stones of intentional behaviour as we write our next chapters . . . now with clarity.

As a psychotherapist I use a person-centered approach to helping clients disentangle their thoughts, feelings and behaviours while setting a course toward using these three to move forward in a helpful, more fulfilling way. I make it my goal and empower clients to understand their inner and outer life and story in connection with others, so that they come to feel more confident and secure in their choices; choices that will bring more hope.

My approach involves drawing on various modalities (e.g., dialogic, narrative, solution-focused, emotion-focused) that fit the unique needs of clients. I hope to create an environment for clients where they feel a sense of safety to express their reflections, thoughts, and concerns. I take on a non-judgmental, non-expert stance and firmly believe that clients have everything that they need already within them- my role is to simply remind you of who you are or to help you discover who you would like to be through supportive, therapeutic conversations. If you are interested in learning more about my approach and to see if we would be a good fit, please contact me for a free consultation.

I work with professionals, therapists, executives, and healthcare specialists who have successful careers on paper but still feel unfulfilled in their personal and professional lives and their relationships. You may feel stressed, exhausted, or like you are just going through the motions of your life. Moreover, the pandemic may have played a role in driving you to re-evaluate your priorities. Anxiety, depression, or feelings of overwhelm may be at play and you may feel like you want a safe space to assess how you got to where you are today. I will work with you to explore your current relationships, family-of-origin issues, and support you in working through grief, loss, anxiety, or trauma.

My psychotherapy approach is very individualized and considers each client as unique. I aim to cultivate a non-judgemental and respectful collaborative relationship.

Sometimes we don't feel connected. Not only to our partners and family but to life in general. We feel like we are searching for some elusive ideal which we can neither explain or label, leaving us feeling like we are wandering in circles. Using a Jungian and Adlerian approach and dream analysis, I have found that people have been able to break free from the role of the nomad. This approach can require a much longer commitment from clients who are seeking a deeper epiphany about themselves and their lives.

Psychotherapy is a talk-based therapy in which folks can explore their concerns related to life challenges, stressors, mental health and well-being in a non-judgemental space. I believe that “individual” concerns go beyond the individual and are deeply connected to the way we interact with the world and others. As such, my approach to psychotherapy draws on systemic therapies that focus on broader sociocultural influences, intersections of identity and relational patterns. I value collaboration, authenticity and anti-oppressive practice in the therapeutic space. Contact me for a free consultation to determine if we would be a good fit.

I offer a unique form of Psychotherapy that uses therapeutic art making combined with talking therapy. I use these techniques to guide my clients through a process of self-discovery and help them achieve a stronger sense of well-being. Creating art is an extension of self onto a canvas, which allows my clients to have a means of observing their emotions and inner thoughts, as well as a non-threatening way to express them. Through this, my clients can learn to understand their own behaviours, thought patterns, emotions, and moods. With this technique, my clients can learn to take control of their lives and manage their emotions.
