Find a Therapist in Russell, Ontario.

With over 30 years of experience—and a life shaped by nonlinear exploration, motherhood, music, and complexity—I humbly believe that I offer my clients psychotherapy that’s both skilled and deeply human. I do my best to meet you where you are, not where someone or society says you “should” be. I profoundly believe these words of wisdom from Jon Kabat-Zinn: "As long as you are breathing, there is more right with you than wrong with you, no matter what is wrong." My clients would say that therapy with me is a blend of evidence-based tools with compassion and curiosity, a blend that helps you shift patterns, understand yourself more fully, and reconnect with what gives life meaning - for YOU.

Therapy can provide a safe emotional space in which your experiences can be explored with the support of a therapist.

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

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.

My approach to psychotherapy is to use evidence-based techniques built upon a humanistic foundation and is tailored to each individual and may draw upon a variety of theoretical orientations.

This is done through insight and awareness into your unique personal experience. Together, we will navigate your inner landscape to try and understand what is working and not working for you and how your values align with your actions and relationships.

I embrace uniqueness and everyone's experiences ARE unique, they're ours. I approach each client with uniqueness and authenticity. I like to apply psychodynamic counselling and empowerment strategies to aid in better understanding our experiences and feelings while striving to build our voices and assert ourselves in the present and the future.

Mental health is just as important as physical health. If you’re feeling a bit down, or maybe you thought you heard something, you’d probably shrug it off. But, if it persists or gets worse, like you’re constantly sad, don’t want to leave the house, and constantly feeling tired or you’ve been seeing someone following and you feel that your brain is disorganized, then you need to see a mental health clinician like a psychotherapist. Even when you’re experiencing the subtle symptoms, it never hurts to have a check up. Reach out to schedule a free 15-minute consultation to start your healing journey.

Psychotherapy is essentially talk therapy. We will work together to explore concerns that impacting your mental health and quality of life. I approach mental health counselling with curiosity and invite you to take on an exploratory stance as we delve into what things are impacting your day to day functioning, what external barriers are elevating distress, and what things are within your control and out of your control to achieve your desired outcome. Within our practice of psychotherapy, you can expect respect, no judgment, and flexibility to accommodate times that work for you.

I define psychotherapy as a valuable relationship where one can experience safety, support and quality, professional care. I offer an eclectic style of counselling utilizing a variety of models and techniques tailored to the specific needs and personality of the individual. My philosophy for counselling and personal moral framework are based upon the Word of God. I pray and depend upon the Holy Spirit for His wisdom and leadership throughout the therapy process.

For over 25 years I have been working with individuals and couples to help them with their particular issues and problems so that they may achieve emotional health as well as relationship and career goals. Each client has a unique situation and set of issues, be it anxiety, stress, depression, substance abuse, grief, personal growth, relationship issues, aging, illness, etc ; each problem has a unique set of tools and strategies to select for its solution. Together we will meet and identify the problem(s); I will propose a treatment plan and together we will discuss the plan as well as determine whether the match between therapist and client is a solid one in order to move forward.

My approach to psychotherapy is calm, steady, and collaborative.

Psychotherapy is a talk therapy with proven research and evidence-based interventions.

As a Master Level psychotherapist, I have educational training and clinical experience in Family Systems and Psychoeducation. Combining these two methods gives me a comprehensive and in-depth awareness of assisting individuals, couples, and families through their growth journey. Through the initial assessment, I will help you establish goals for therapy that are practical and achievable. Psychotherapy is a safe space to explore your any challenges you are facing.

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.

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.

From there, we will collaboratively work on a plan to determine how to use that information in order to allow you to work through your current challenges.

My approach to psychotherapy is relational, paced, and grounded in careful listening. I work with adults to create a safe, respectful space where thoughts, emotions, and patterns can be explored without pressure to perform or arrive at quick answers. Psychotherapy with me focuses on understanding how current difficulties connect to deeper habits of coping, stress, or self-protection, many of which once served an important purpose. By slowing things down and attending to both emotional experience and meaning, clients often develop greater clarity, steadiness, and confidence in how they respond to life’s challenges. Over time, this work supports lasting change rooted in self-understanding rath
