In the absence of sufficient support, enduring life's struggles often means tuning out of ourselves. Therapy helps us tune in. Together we move towards a deeper and more nuanced understanding of what it is to be you. I love what happens in the consulting room: All the thoughts, dreams, fears, desires, and memories that are stirred become the pavestones that lay the path along which we journey. Together we move towards a deeper and more nuanced understanding of what it is to be you. There is risk, to be sure, but each new discovery, each new question, brings with it the potential for ...

Ottawa, ON

Psychotherapy for me is not a prescription, nor a “how-to” manual.  It is rather an unscripted journey that involves looking for the person that you are, a person with a story, with needs, with brokenness, and with strengths.  This search and discovery can often lead to a world that can be less burdened with constant censoring and checking for safety, and more endowed with acceptance and freedom.

Psychotherapy is a collaborative process between you and your therapist whereby you are able to make sense of your feelings in the context of both your past and your present circumstances. By understanding your patterns and feelings in this context, and making sense of them, we will work together to think about how to reframe your experiences and how to effect change in patterns and behaviours that are troubling you.

In 2011-2014, I attended Gestalt training outside of Canada. Then, in 2016, I joined the Gestalt Institute of Toronto, and am nearly complete in my life-long mission to become a certified psychotherapist. I have also led numerous sessions and webinars outside of Canada since 2012, including on themes such as the impact of the subconscious on one's life.  My educational and life experiences very well guide me to my vision of unique way of working with clients and to support each client in the process.


Thornhill, ON

I practice psychodynamic psychotherapy, which works with the unconscious, looking at things such as dreams, wishes, desires, and fears. I encourage you to come to sessions prepared to talk about what is happening to you in the present, and we will likely also end up discussing past experiences. I work with clients for medium-to-long-term therapy, meeting at least weekly for 50-minute sessions (extended sessions are an option). Meeting weekly allows us to create a cohesive conversation where we can explore your experiences in-depth. My office is a safe space where you will be able to move at ...

Toronto, ON

Therapy is a process where two hearts and minds can meet and where the client is encouraged to unfold and examine his or her life story. A therapist requires tenderness and maturity in working with clients, allowing the client to express, in his or her own time any number of emotions, so that healing and transformation can happen and they can begin to see themselves as unique human beings. Therapy moves clients towards accepting what is broken in them and finding hope for healing. We all have barriers which prevent us from seeing the parts we don't like about ourselves and from learning how ...


Toronto, ON

Therapy begins a process of deeper self-understanding. Through developing your awareness, you gain the potential to make conscious choices rather than relying on your habitual responses. In a safe, compassionate space you can explore the conflicts and repeating patterns in your life and learn to accept the fullness of yourself. I believe that our lives offer us endless possibilities to grow and deepen as human beings. I will help you look at things from different perspectives. I will listen and ask questions to help you get clear about what is really challenging you. I will speak hard truths ...

Clarington, ON

Psychotherapy is a journey and it is not always an easy one. It requires courage, strength and the ability to be self-aware. Psychotherapy works well for those who have the capacity to explore and ask questions. It is best suited for people who are curious about who they are and why they behave the way they do. Those who will benefit most are those who are capable of reasoning with themselves and, most importantly, of exploring different solutions. As your Registered Psychotherapist, my approach to therapy is a process of discovery. I will be there with you, the client - wherever "there" is - ...


Toronto, ON

I specialize in clients with relationship, self-esteem, anxiety, sex, body image and family dynamic challenges. The goal is understanding current feelings and difficulties and where they come from, to create new, positive interpersonal experiences and relationships. Often these feel impossible to conquer alone and I help clients unpack with an aim to resolve these issues. My approach is psychodynamic psychotherapy, meaning I primarily use talk therapy - anything that comes to mind, including dreams, fantasies, presenting issues and even in-depth exploration of early experiences - to help ...


Toronto, ON

I am a psychotherapist because I believe in the power of relationships and our capacity to re-shape our lives when we have the support we need. Therapy allows us to access our own internal resources so that we can make changes to create a meaningful life. The foundation of my work is experiential and relational. In this paradigm, the therapeutic relationship between client and therapist is a healing ground where old patterns emerge, new ways of being are possible, and wounds can be repaired. My approach is deeply influenced by my advanced training in expressive arts,gestalt and developmental ...

Issues are uncovered and processed by means of the therapeutic relationship. My practice is trauma informed as I have completed Level 2 in Sensorimotor Training, a therapeutic modality specifically developed to assist people who have experienced trauma - either in the form of a concrete event, or as a consequence of an acutely distressing or deprived upbringing. I work collaboratively to create trust and a sense of safety ...


Despair does not always yield to introspection, reflection, or fretful worry. Our demons, so to speak, must often be spoken into view, preferably in collaboration with an other, someone with an ear for this very specific kindness of listening. Together, we will seek illumination. People who come to see me, I think, understand something is not quite right in their internal worlds. The presence of these disturbances (for lack of a better word) is communicated to my clients by their unconscious selves in the form of what we have come to call symptoms like anxiety, despair, hopelessness, anger; ...
