Ontario (Online Only)
I became a therapist because I understand what it's like to feel stuck between who you are and who you think you're supposed to be. My approach is simple: meet you where you are, skip the judgment, and work together to build something that actually fits your life. I'm here for real conversations about the hard stuff: anxiety that won't quit, patterns you can't seem to break, transitions that feel overwhelming. You're not broken, and therapy doesn't have to be perfect. Let's just start where you are.

Treatment Approach
- Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT) Helps people accept difficult thoughts and feelings instead of fighting them, while committing to actions that reflect their values. It blends mindfulness with practical behavior strategies.
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) One of the most widely used approaches, CBT helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and replace them with healthier patterns. It is effective for anxiety, depression, and many other concerns.
- Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) Combines CBT with mindfulness to help regulate emotions, tolerate stress, and build stronger relationships. Originally designed for borderline personality disorder, it’s now used more broadly.
- Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) Combines mindfulness practices with CBT to prevent depression relapse. It helps people notice thoughts without judgment and respond more calmly.
- Motivational Interviewing (MI) A collaborative, client-centered approach that strengthens motivation for change. It is especially effective for addictions and health behaviors.
- Narrative Therapy Encourages people to view problems as separate from themselves and reframe their life story. It helps build resilience and self-identity.
- Person-Centered Therapy (Rogerian) Emphasizes empathy, unconditional positive regard, and authenticity. It provides a safe space for self-discovery and growth.
Approach Description: I blend CBT, DBT, mindfulness practices, and narrative therapy based on what actually works for you. Some clients need concrete tools and exercises. Others benefit more from processing and making sense of their experiences. We'll figure out your style together. My approach is grounded in acceptance, starting with where you are now, without pressure to be anywhere else, and building practical skills from there.
