Ontario
I work with adults who feel overwhelmed or disconnected from themselves, often noticing weight changes or emotional eating as stress builds and their capacity shifts, especially in midlife or after years of carrying significant responsibility. Many of my clients are capable and driven, yet feel stuck in cycles of anxiety, burnout, and self-abandonment despite knowing what “should” help. My approach blends evidence-based psychotherapy with supportive, holistic tools to understand what’s driving these patterns and to create steadier, more sustainable change. I offer online therapy across Ontario and in-person sessions in Guelph, with a focus on helping you feel clearer, more grounded, and more at ease in your body and daily life.

Treatment Approach
- Behavioral Therapy Uses learning techniques like reinforcement and practice to change unwanted behaviors. It is often applied to phobias, anxiety, and habits.
- 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.
- Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT) Builds skills in self-kindness and compassion toward others. It is especially helpful for people who struggle with shame or self-criticism.
- Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) Focuses on strengthening emotional bonds in couples or families. It helps people identify negative cycles and create more secure connections.
- Psychoeducational Therapy Provides education and coping tools about mental health conditions. It empowers clients with knowledge and practical skills.
- Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) Focuses on solutions and future goals rather than past problems. It is practical, short-term, and goal-driven.
- Somatic Therapy Helps clients notice how emotions are stored in the body. It uses breath, movement, and awareness for healing trauma and stress.
Approach Description: I use an integrative approach that brings together psychotherapy and holistic nutrition so you can create change that lasts. Instead of focusing only on coping skills, we explore the emotional patterns, stress responses, and physical factors that shape how you feel. This approach is especially helpful for anxiety, burnout, emotional eating, and the energy shifts that come with midlife. We work together to strengthen your emotional clarity, improve your relationship with yourself, and support your body so that the changes you make are sustainable.

My practice supports adults who are navigating stress, anxiety, burnout, emotional eating, and midlife or menopause-related changes. Many clients come to me feeling overwhelmed, foggy, or unlike themselves, often after years of carrying heavy responsibilities at work or at home. I specialize in helping people understand what is driving their patterns, reduce emotional overload, and create healthier, more sustainable ways of coping.
My integrative approach blends evidence-based psychotherapy with holistic support, helping you reconnect with yourself, strengthen emotional resilience, and make lasting changes to your mental and physical wellbeing. I work often with individuals managing anxiety, chronic stress, emotional eating, trauma, weight concerns, and the shifts in energy and mood common in midlife and peri menopause.
I offer online therapy across Ontario and in-person sessions in my beautiful, calming office at Guelph Women’s Health Associates. Whether we meet online or in person, my goal is to help you feel understood, supported, and equipped with practical tools to move forward with clarity and confidence.
