Find a Therapist in London, Ontario.

I've heard a lot of people tell me that they thought "therapy was only for crazy people". It's not. Psychotherapy can keep you from going crazy! Having a trained professional to assist you in making sense of your life can be a very "un-crazy" thing to do. Besides, the process can actually be fun and enjoyable. In additon, I offer body-oriented psychotherapy which integrates the awareness of the body in helping you to manage intense emotions or physical symptoms.

Psychotherapy, ie, “psychodynamic”, differs from counselling or ‘coaching’: focus and goal is deeper "structural" personality/'self' changes; more about ‘how to be’ for life vs ‘what to do’ in specific situations (although this DOES happen). It engages us on 'core' emotional-sensory levels, exploring and healing hurts, confusion, strong negative reactions, troubled relationships, that result from traumas and neglect (eg, abandonment, violence, family disruptions) occurring at vulnerable childhood stages that have become ‘internalized’. This approach empowers one by fostering awareness about inner states and processes interfering with affirmative personal ‘agency’/choices, health- vitality.

Part of my aim for therapy is to facilitate understanding to help clients move forward. Schedule a free 15-minute consultation to ensure we are a good fit.

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.

Psychotherapy is the use of psychological methods to help a person change behavior and overcome problems in a positive manner. Its aim is to help people understand the thoughts behind feeling anxious or depressed and addressing these thinking patterns. Psychotherapy will help you change behaviors and habits that are limiting you, to experiencing your fullest potential.

Psychotherapy with me takes a very holistic journey. We will examine all aspects of your life; mental, physical, spiritual, emotional, as well as your interactions with your family, friends, co-workers, community and culture. All of these pieces come together to complete the mosaic that is you. By looking at all of the pieces, we will begin to better understand why you think, act and feel the way that you do. We will uncover patterns of behaviour and that will help you to create new patterns and habits.

Hello and welcome. I will support you as you make decisions that prioritize your best interests. I am here to listen to your experiences, thoughts, and emotions. I will guide you through exercises and techniques (often somatic or compassion-based) that build confidence, reduce stress and anxiety, bring ease to your mind, and soothe your autonomic nervous system.

Psychotherapy provides an opportunity to explore the challenges you are facing in a safe, non-judgmental space. As you share your experiences, we will be looking for adaptive and maladaptive patterns of thinking, feeling and/or behaving to move in a more helpful direction. I may ask questions that lead to better understanding of your current struggles and potential solutions. Increasing awareness and understanding of emotions and body sensations may also help to live a more integrated and authentic life.

My role as your therapist is to assist you to explore, reflect and accept yourself. From the safe haven of therapy you probe what you feel, know and maybe fear. It is an in-depth conversation with me but even more with yourself. Through this you reach new perspectives: awareness, feelings, thoughts, intentions plus better understandings of what has happened in your life. From there you can make changes towards healthier actions - calmer and in a more balanced, assertive position in relation to others and yourself. Such personal learning can certainly be done without a therapist - they just assist. Like hiring any consultant, it should certainly be you who is in charge of this journey.

Although I have training in many different modalities of treatment, I believe strongly that the critical factor in deciding which approach to use, is you. My approach in integrated, so while the theory may guide some of my thinking and planning about how to help you, your own wisdom, experiences, and capacities help me to develop strategies that you can learn in the counselling room, and then put into practice in the real world. Safely. Thoughtfully.

I have been providing psychotherapy since 1996. Through psychotherapy, I have been able to help individual, couples and families to address their challenges/problems and achieve their therapy goals. My approach is client-centred, solution-focused, and using cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) techniques. Through psychotherapy, I can help you to improve your thinking, feelings and/or behavior.

I commonly provide support for trauma, grief, anxiety, depression, and crisis of meaning or purpose. I often work with individuals who are seeking to better understand themselves and also value personal growth as part of the therapeutic journey. In sessions this often looks like a holistic approach to exploring an understanding of concerns from various perspectives. Through a process of self-exploration and dialogue, I support clients with developing practical insights and solutions to real-life concerns. I engage a holistic and depth approach, drawing primarily from an integration of my training in relational, psychodynamic, somatic, and attachment-based approaches to therapy.

Psychotherapy provides you with an opportunity to take a deeper dive into the roots and origins of the things that challenge you in your present life. Many of the struggles we have related to our thoughts, feelings, behavioural patterns, and relationships have roots in earlier life experiences. Many people have experienced difficult life experiences and even trauma, which can have a lasting negative effect on the quality of present life. As difficult as it can feel, working with a therapist to peel back the layers of past experiences, explore and make connections with current day challenges, can help bring about a deep sense of peace and connectedness in daily life.

Anybody can do counselling, but it takes skill to be a therapist. Clients who come to me find they do most of the talking. My role is to listen, try to understand what you are thinking and feeling, and reflect that understanding back to you. I want you to feel deeply heard. I want you to feel someone cares. I do not give you solutions. Rather, I help you find them within yourself.
