Psychotherapy offers an opportunity to step back from the pressures of daily life to thoughtfully explore what is shaping thoughts, emotions, and behaviour. In my practice, I draw from CBT, ACT, DBT, IFS, narrative therapy, and others to help clients better understand themselves and the patterns that influence their lives. Our work together focuses on insight, and also on developing practical ways to respond effectively to stress, uncertainty, and emotional challenges. Clients find that our work provides both clarity and direction, and helps them reconnect with their values, strengthen relationships, and build skills that support lasting psychological flexibility and resilience.

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.

I provide a safe & non-judgmental environment for clients to open up on all issues, even deeply buried ones (from early childhood to present), so I can get a sense of the whole picture, ask the right questions, and come up with an effective treatment plan. I’ve successfully worked with many individuals & couples who others had given up on, since they weren’t able to go deep enough. This has allowed me to especially help people who are struggling with emotional or sexual trauma, incest, abuse, porn or sex addiction, sexual dysfunction, intimacy issues & taboos & fears which trap them in shame. I’ve also helped couples heal from deep wounds such as infidelity and build stronger relationships.

Psychotherapy with me is a collaborative and respectful process where clients are invited to explore their thoughts, emotions, and patterns in a safe and supportive space. I work from a trauma-informed, Gestalt and somatic perspective, which means we pay attention not only to what is happening in your mind, but also to what is happening in your body and in the present moment. I do not rush change or impose solutions. Instead, I help clients increase awareness, strengthen emotional regulation, and develop healthier ways of relating to themselves and others. Through this process, clients often gain self-understanding, clearer boundaries, and greater confidence in navigating life’s challenges.
