Find a Therapist in Richmond Hill, Ontario.

There are many things which cause us distress and prevent us from achieving our preferred quality of life. These can include a variety of feelings, thoughts, beliefs, reactions, confusion, past or present situations, etc. You can more easily think about, and choose, your preferred ways of living, by getting clear about what's going on, how you're being affected, and your usual responses. I delight to help in this kind of process: it can be a way of making things which are invisible, visible; things which are unspoken, clear; even things which were un-thought of, possible.

Psychotherapy at Pro Q Therapy is a collaborative and deeply supportive process that helps you understand yourself and your emotions on a profound level. Our therapists bring extensive experience from hospital settings, forensic mental health departments, and trauma work with war survivors, offering a level of insight and care grounded in real-world expertise. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, or emotional burnout, we combine evidence-based methods—such as CBT, DBT, EMDR, and IFS-informed therapy—with compassion and practical strategies for lasting change. Clients gain not only relief but also clarity, resilience, and a renewed sense of direction in life.

In addition to finding relief from symptoms such as anxiety and depression, I believe it is also necessary to look at the source of those symptoms. Not doing so would be akin to treating a physical ailment without looking for the cause. It is from this deeper work that lasting change and growth can come. As a depth-oriented psychotherapist, I work with people to gain insight, find meaning in their lives, and find more effective ways of being and relating to others. It is through this process that change, growth, and wholeness result. We all want happier, more fulfilling lives. I will help you work toward your goals.

Psychotherapy has been with humankind since our origins. However, about a century ago, psychologists tried to systematize and formalize psychotherapeutic interventions and, depending on their worldview and perspectives on human nature, they created various approaches that currently exceed 400, which can be confusing and misleading. A successful psychotherapy, regardless of the lenses and title, should acknowledge that every person has a unique mind and, as a result, a unique mental world. The therapist’s job is to help the client explore this world in a supportive environment. Schedule a free 15-minute consultation to see if we are a good fit.

I am a transformative and depth psychotherapist. This means that I look beyond the symptoms in order to assist my clients in discovering a more meaningful and fulfilling way to cope with life's inevitable dips and conflicts. It does little long lasting good to treat only the consequences of deeply ensconced processes that we have little knowledge of. While working with me, my clients and I go to where the root cause of their issues reside and gently and safely observe them and understand them with the ultimate goal of gaining control over them.

As a gestalt psychotherapist, who pairs gestalt training with somatic experiencing I can help support you in healing from your trauma. No one in the Niagara Region utilizes the combination of these therapies and applies them to working with couples in crisis. I am sorry to say but popular approaches to healing trauma like CBT will provide only temporary relief at best. If you want to get to the root of your trauma and heal somatic experiencing (SE) is what you need and when supported with the power of relational gestalt therapy you will shift your shit! SE focuses on regulating your nervous system. Gestalt focuses on awareness, contact and authenticity, it will help being relational.
