Do you sometimes sit in meetings afraid that everyone can see that you’re a fraud? You sweat profusely at the thought of approaching others? Perhaps you’re trying to make sense of your identity after major changes or transitions? Life doesn’t come with a user manual. Sometimes it can feel overwhelming or confusing to make sense of the anxiety and stress that overtake our mind. Major changes that happen to us, including immigration, job loss, parenthood, unanticipated caregiving or losing a loved one can sometimes lead us to feel lost or stuck in place. Contemplating a life we want for ...


Toronto, ON

We all struggle at times, even if it doesn’t show. Are you facing a stressful transition? Does a longstanding issue demand your attention? Do you wonder why you repeatedly find yourself in variations of the same situation or dynamic? When we make the pivotal decision to pay attention to what holds us back, new pathways become possible. Maybe you already have the support of friends or loved ones. That can help. But psychotherapists are trained to support you with an ear attuned to patterns, while being mindful of our own biases. We offer a unique perspective because we are not directly ...

Toronto, ON

I help adult survivors of childhood relational trauma heal from the pain of past wounds and develop more fulfilling connections. These early experiences deeply influence how we relate to the world as adults, often impacting self-worth and leading to persistent challenges with self-esteem, negative self-talk, and a struggle to find safety or calm. Whether you feel trapped in recurring relational patterns, find yourself repeatedly disappointed, or tend to isolate to avoid further emotional pain, there is space here to understand why and make room for change. My approach is relational and ...

I work best with people asking some variation of the following questions:What am I doing with my life? How did I get here? Why is this happening to me? Is this it? What the hell is going on? – all honest questions and great starting points for developing more depth, meaning and purpose in your life.I have a ton of experience in working with those who’ve “lost the plot” of their existence in that they are trying to figure out how to steer themselves and their lives in a direction that works better for them.There are so many reasons why we might feel disoriented and lose direction, but major ...

With more than 25 year experience I came to the  conclusion that people have more internal resources than what they see on the surface! Let me accompany you on a journey to uncover them together. I use multiple techniques to help, mostly psychoanalitically oriented but most important- tailored to you own needs. Contact me if you go through a challenging period in your life.

My practice employs both counteractive change models, step approaches, as well as models of change and growth that focus on transformational change. We bring in all levels of the brain, the early brain (sometimes called the reptilian brain), the limbic system, and the neocortex. Our sense of ourselves derives from the levels of the body, emotion and cognition and I work intergratively on all three levels including the transpersonal level. We look at symptoms but realize them as nested within the whole person's larger and deeper implicit framework. We might start with assessing symptoms, but ...


Toronto, ON

We learn how to be in this world and be a person from the moment we are born. When we are struggling, suffering, and facing challenges in our lives - whether it is anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction, overwhelm, or things we wish we could change - it’s because we've adopted ways of being that are now habits that can be difficult to alter. But we are whole, just as we are! We grow in changing how we respond to ourselves and the experiences and events in our lives. Having someone to walk alongside you on the journey as you learn which habits or outdated beliefs no longer work can support you ...

These days, with so many of the world's problems impinging on us, it's more important than ever to develop the capacity to calm and regulate our nervous systems.  Therapy with an extensively trained, compassionate human being--versus the illusion of one that AI generates--offers a way forward in developing healthy ways of viewing ourselves and relating to others.


Toronto, ON

I am a Jungian Analyst and a member of the Ontario Association of Jungian Analysts. In a Jungian analysis the utmost respect is given to each person as an individual. We each come with our own life story informed by our family background, cultural and religious heritage, our personality type and our sexual and gender preferences. Our own relationship to our experience, both inner and outer, is important to who we are; a Jungian analysis takes these factors into account. Everyday life challenges us with conflicts, sorrows, and losses that may lead to us losing contact with important parts of ...

Following Jung, my approach is both realistic and optimistic. The psychological impacts of anxiety and depression, as well as difficulties in families, relationships, life transitions, and trauma, often leave us feeling overwhelmed. But these challenges are also opportunities for lasting growth. The crises of life spur us to explore: to open up to a life that is truer to our nature, to find or deepen our creative voice, and to feel more at peace with ourselves and connected with others. My consulting space is located in the Glebe, within walking distance of Ottawa's downtown core, with easy ...
