Find a Therapist in Canada

Now accepting new clients. Feeling stuck and alone? Life can be just hard. Sometimes we find ourselves feeling all kinds of feelings and we don't know what to do about it - we feel utterly alone and lost. I would love to support you to find a path forward and move more easily and authentically through life. I've helped people like you find a path through: anxiety, ADHD, trauma, emotion dysregulation, depression, insecure attachment patterns, and all kinds of life changes. My favourite part of this process is helping you see your situation differently, because once that happens things can get so much better.  

I want to help you make positive changes in your life! In the last few years, you have experienced new relationship stress, financial stress, and anxiety about the future. I am here to help you walk through this and find a better way forward. My passion is using counselling to help people find hope and healing in their lives. Life is hard, and change is difficult. But when you have someone walking with you on the journey it is easier. With two Master of Arts degrees and over half a decade of counselling experience, I have the education and experience to help you get to your "best place" - whatever that is! Although I help people through many different concerns, there are a few that I work with the most - stress and stress management, couple and marriages, and college and careers.

My goal is to work myself out of a job. I want to help you build the skills, insight, and confidence you need to navigate life’s challenges long after therapy ends.

Are you finding it challenging to navigate relationships? Have you experienced narcissistic abuse? If you are a people-pleaser and find difficulty setting healthy boundaries this may be an indication of relational trauma. As a result you may be experiencing symptoms like anxiety, stress or low self-esteem, that can affect your relationships, work, school and your ability to complete daily tasks. If this is you its time to priotitize your emotional well being. Together we can work on building healthier relationships, improving communication skills, setting boundaries and developing healthier coping skills and tools!  

In my practice I focus on developing the therapeutic relationship in order to better understand you as a human being and an individual on their own path of growth, healing, and development. If you feel you are struggling to recover from certain experiences in life, or that you have behavior that is self-destructive, or even if you feel life has lost its meaning, please take that first step on your journey and reach out for a consultation or therapy session!  

As a solution-focused therapist, my goal is to help you uncover your true potential and lead a life that is truly fulfilling. While we can't change difficult situations of the past, we can work together to better understand and resolve challenges in your life and build a stronger and happier future.

My mottos are : "Be the cycle-breaking hero of your family lineage! The buck stops with you. Stop Dimming Your Light AND start disrupting multigenerational family patterns" I have created a unique blend of traditional talk therapy and eastern based modalities that work with the mind, the body and the soul which I call Holistic Psychotherapy. In addition to verbal unpacking of the core issues, I use neural science, visualization and intention to rewire the mind and belief systems that a person may have learned as survival tools in childhood, that no longer work for them in their adult lives and relationships. The work powerfully affects permanent and long-lasting change in an adult individuals, couples and/or adult families. My main focus is to disrupt multi generational dysfunction.  

At Ripple Effect Counselling & Psychotherapy, I provide evidence-based, goal-oriented psychological treatment.

My practice prioritizes an analytical, structured approach aimed at supporting symptom management and functional improvement. Contact me to initiate a targeted, clinically sound treatment plan.  

I'm passionate about helping people overcome life's challenges. With over 18 years of experience in mental health and nearly 13 years as a therapist, I've had the privilege of working with children, youth, and families from diverse backgrounds and experiences.  

I became a therapist because I believe that people are far more capable of change than they often give themselves credit for and they just need the right space and support to get there. What I bring to every session is a genuine blend of warmth, honesty, and focus. I will meet you where you are, and I will also gently push you forward. That combination is rare, and my clients tell me it is what makes the work actually stick. I have a particular passion for working with couples, parents, and stepfamilies — relationships that carry real complexity and do not always fit neatly into traditional therapy models. Stepfamily dynamics, blended households, and co-parenting challenges require a therapist who understands the nuance involved, and this is work I find deeply meaningful. If you have ever felt like a therapist didn't quite understand the specific terrain of your relationship or family, that changes here. What sets my practice apart is that I do not believe in therapy that keeps you comfortable and stuck. I believe in therapy that moves and sessions where you leave with something real: a new way of seeing a pattern, language for what you've been feeling, or a concrete shift in how you relate to the people who matter most to you. If you are ready to stop repeating the same cycles and start building relationships that actually feel good to be in, I would love to hear from you. Reaching out is the hardest step; everything after that, we figure out together.
