Currently Accepting New Clients

These are incredibly trying times we are facing, unlike ever before. In the midst of major life transitions, many are looking to better manage elevated levels of stress, anxiety, depression, fear and loneliness. In my practice, I help clients to become 'directors' of their own experience and to understand how behaviours that were once part of creatively adjusting to past environments may be interfering with their ability to function fully in the present moment. I help clients deepen into calm and return to a sense of aliveness within.

As a Registered Psychotherapist, I provide counselling and psychotherapy services for individual adults in Ontario and across Canada.

In my practice I help clients develop deeper meaning in their lives and a greater sense of their whole being, often using techniques from Gestalt therapy - an existential, experiential, phenomenological approach to human development.

I promote self-regulation, relational awareness, individuation and growth within the support of structured interventions called experiments – therapeutic activities set up by the therapist to increase response-ability, awareness of the here-and-now moment, calm and creativity in times of isolation. Clients are provided with creative opportunities to try out new behaviours to see what happens, to develop sensory awareness/body awareness and to re-integrate disowned parts of the self; aspects of the personality that have formerly been neglected, forgotten or repressed.
