Is your mind racing even when you want it to slow down? Are you and your partner stuck in the same fight on repeat, or is your ADHD brain turning daily life into a constant catch-up game? Whatever brought you here, I draw on a wide range of evidence-based approaches so the work fits you, not the other way around.  

I assist adults in managing confusing emotions related to challenging life events, and away from negativity, to a more positive improved focus. The path to Emotional healing is Emotional Freedom leading to emotional wisdom. You will find the tools to better cope with symptoms related to anxiety, depression and unresolved conflicts.  

The Centre for Psychology and Emotional Health has been providing the highest standard of evidence-based individual and couple therapy since 2003. We are also a satellite training centre for the Emotion-Focused Therapy Clinic at York University. Centrally located in downtown Toronto, we are a highly skilled team of clinicians who are committed to helping people make meaningful changes.  

I am a clinical psychologist offering evidence based treatment. Explore your inner experiences in ways that will help you build compassion, inner stability, and intrinsic motivation, creating a more meaningful, rich life as well as sustain inner peace. Emotion focused therapy can help you to reduce symptoms such as anxiety and depression, and promotes the development of more satisfying ways of being with yourself and others. If you find yourself struggling with issues such as feeling stuck, not good enough, chronic emptiness, or having relationship difficulties, this approach may be helpful to you.  

The focus of my work is addictive and compulsive sexual activity. If you want to stop some behaviors, but cannot, I can help you. It is not about eliminating sex, but rather, helping you shift from objectified sex to more connected sex, strengthening your sense of personal integrity. The goal is a healthier and happier intimate relationship with your partner or partners. Oh, and you will be able to leave your phone, face up, anywhere without worry.

Betrayal Trauma is not just professional work for me - It is personal. In addition to being a Certified APSATS Coach with advanced trauma training, I am also a betrayed partner. The most meaningful letters after my name are not just my credentials, but the lived experience that fuels my passion for this work. I understand the shock, hypervigilance, grief, and confusion that follow relational betrayal, and I provide trauma-informed, partner-sensitive support that prioritizes safety, clarity, and empowerment. If you are navigating infidelity, sexual addiction, or relational deception, you deserves support from someone who both understands the clinical complexities and truly "gets it."  

Not sure where to start or if therapy will help? Feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or like something’s missing? Trauma, grief, relationships, ADHD, anxiety, career stress—it’s a lot to carry alone and it can drain our battery. I understand what it's like to sit in the client's seat with these feelings and thoughts and I am here to help. Think of me as your GPS—you set the destination, and I’ll help guide you, redirecting as needed along the way. I specialize in trauma, using approaches like EMDR and IFS to help you make sense of your past and lower the distress levels of those memories. Further, being married/together for 15 years, I understand the complexities that relationships can bring. If you're looking for relationship counselling, I help couples improve communication and conflict through practical tools and strategies (using Gottman and EFT). Or maybe 4 walls are not for you? I also offer walk-and-talk therapy & animal therapy. If you're ready to embark on a journey of self-discovery, growth, and healing, I'm here to support you every step of the way. Please reach out to schedule a free 15-minute phone consultation—I look forward to walking alongside you on your path, however that may look.  

I provide a structured, trauma-informed therapeutic environment grounded in empathy, consistency, and psychological safety. As past experiences emerge and affect current functioning, I offer steady support, clinical insight, and evidence-informed guidance to promote understanding, emotional regulation, and integration. All work is conducted within a framework of confidentiality, respect, and client autonomy, honoring your readiness and capacity for healing at each stage of the process.

You keep repeating the same painful patterns in your relationships, no matter who you're with. Maybe you're actively dating, and you find yourself reading into every shift in their tone, chasing reassurance, or losing yourself trying to be who you think they want. Maybe you keep going back to an ex even though it leaves you feeling worse each time. Or maybe you're in a committed relationship that's become a cycle of conflict and resentment, and you're tired of having the same fight on repeat. The exhausting part is that it keeps happening, and it's starting to shape how you see yourself. If any of this feels familiar, you're in the right place. I'm a Registered Social Worker who helps people in their 20s and 30s make real, lasting changes in how they relate. My style is warm and practical, and I'll challenge you rather than just nod along. Using attachment theory, we'll trace where these patterns began and build the security to break them. These patterns can change. As you build real security within yourself, those painful patterns stop running the show, and you get to choose how you show up instead. You can feel calm and confident, whether partnered or single. The first step is a free, no-pressure meet & greet call—just reach out to set one up. I'd love to hear from you!  

I’ve spent over 20 years working with men in moments of doubt, conflict, and transition — and I’ve lived through those moments myself. I know what it’s like to carry everything on your shoulders, to feel responsible for everyone, and to have no place to fall apart. Men need a space where they can be honest without being judged, challenged without being shamed, and supported without being softened. Watching a man step into emotional clarity and grounded strength — not just confidence, but presence — is the reason I do this work.  

Joshua has been treating a variety a patients since 2017. He not only posses the tools that his masters gave him, but also the tools that life experience has given him. In 2004 Joshua sustained a traumatic spinal cord injury that almost took his life and left him using a power wheelchair. Joshua therefore has deep rooted empathy and first hand understanding and can therefore take you beyond where you are now to where you have always wanted to be.  

My therapeutic style is neuro-affirming, relational, and eclectic. You can expect friendly banter, a collaborative process, the option to actually get to know your therapist (I'm not here to be a stranger to you), and an approach that shifts with your needs and goals rather than a textbook treatment plan. In short, some sessions may be rooted in skill work, others may require more trauma-informed care. I offer therapy that meets you where you're at. I also understand that neurodivergent clients are neurodivergent 100% of the time - my goal is to provide a service that accommodates and accepts the ADHD / AuDHD experience. Fun facts about me: I'm a millennial in my 30's, diagnosed with ADHD later in life, lover of cats, nature, and reality tv.  

I work with adults and couples navigating anxiety, depression, self-esteem challenges, relationship issues, and life transitions. My approach is gentle and non-judgmental — this is a space to actually explore what you're feeling, not just manage it. I've had my own experience with anxiety and self-doubt, and it shapes how I show up with clients. I don't believe healing means fixing something broken in you. It means reconnecting with who you already are underneath the noise. If you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected, you don't have to sort through it alone.  

If you are struggling with mental health challenges, with challenges in your relationships or your work life, I provide a safe, accepting, client centred space for you to explore, gain insight, tap into your wisdom, and find direction and healing. I am a compassionate and mindful listener, and draw on a range of tools and therapeutic approaches, as well as the wisdom that comes with experience, to help you with your goals. I offer a free 15 minute telephone consultation to discuss your challenges and answer any questions you have of me.  

Life’s challenges often bring a mix of emotions, from uncertainty and frustration to a strong desire for change and understanding. Through virtual therapy, I provide a compassionate and accessible space to explore these difficulties. As a Registered Psychotherapist, I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to address thought patterns, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to manage emotions effectively, and Emotion-Focused Therapy to explore deeper emotional experiences. For those seeking solutions and clarity, I draw on Solution-Focused Therapy to identify actionable steps, while Person-Centered Therapy ensures that each session prioritizes your unique experiences and needs. For couples, I use the Gottman Method to strengthen communication and rebuild trust. Together, these approaches help individuals and couples overcome challenges like trauma, anxiety, self-esteem issues, and relationship dynamics, creating opportunities for meaningful and lasting growth. My approach is designed to foster understanding and promote healthier, more fulfilling relationships through expert, empathetic guidance. Call for a free consultation

I will walk you back to wholeness and health, leaving things such as the symptoms of PTSD, anxiety, depression, motivation, and family and relationship issues in the past. I also use the wonderful powers of your mind, body, and spirit to enhance your memory, sports performance, optimism, spirituality, ability to focus and more.

Eye Movement Therapy, Chakra balance and alignment, energy healing, and regression all come together to make a powerful, transformative treatment for any client. It's now time to reclaim your life.
