Fee:60 minutes- $200

A Thoughtful, Grounded Approach to Psychotherapy

My practice is designed for individuals who value depth, discretion, and professional integrity. I work with clients who are motivated to engage in meaningful, ongoing psychotherapy rather than short-term or surface-level support.

Therapy with me is structured, collaborative, and paced with care, supporting insight, emotional regulation, and sustainable change over time.

How I Work

My approach is integrative and evidence-informed, drawing from:

  • Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)

  • Mindfulness-based approaches

  • Existential-based approaches

  • Relational psychotherapy

  • Compassion-focused frameworks

  • Narrative

  • DBT

  • Solution Focused

  • Trauma informed

  • Health & Wellness Coaching

Sessions are attentive and intentional, offering both containment and flexibility. We regularly review goals and progress so that therapy remains responsive and aligned with your needs.

I do not offer guarantees or quick fixes. Instead, I provide consistent, skilled support within a secure therapeutic relationship.

Who I Work With

I work with adults from diverse backgrounds who value privacy, depth, and professionalism. Many of my clients are individuals navigating:

  • Anxiety, emotional overwhelm, or chronic stress

  • Life transitions, responsibility, or leadership roles

  • Identity shifts and long-standing patterns

  • Relationship and boundary challenges

  • Loss or significant change

My work is well-suited for reflective individuals seeking a steady therapeutic relationship and long-term support.

Areas of Focus

  • Anxiety and emotional regulation

  • Depression and loss

  • Life transitions and role changes

  • Identity and self-understanding

  • Relationship patterns

  • Stress, responsibility, and burnout

  • Spiritual Care

What to Expect

We begin with an initial consultation to explore fit, clarify concerns, and discuss goals. Therapy then proceeds collaboratively, with regular sessions and ongoing review to support integration and progress over time.

What is Therapy?

Therapy is not always easily described. It varies depending on the personalities of the therapist and the client and the particular problems brought to each session. Therapy calls for a very active effort on your part. In order for therapy to be successful, you will have to work on things we talk about both during our sessions and at home.

Therapy can have benefits and risks. Since therapy often involves discussing unpleasant aspects of our life, you may experience uncomfortable feelings like sadness, guilt, anger, frustration, loneliness and helplessness.

On the other hand, therapy has been shown to have benefits for people who go through it. Therapy can lead to better relationships, learning new ways to cope with or solve problems, developing of new skills, and significant reduction in feelings of distress, changing unwanted behaviours, and improved self-­­esteem.

Therapy is a process of personal exploration and may lead to major changes in your life perspectives and decisions.

How can I help?

  • Individual Therapy

    Explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences in a safe, confidential space with me, tailored to your unique needs. Overcome challenges such as anxiety, depression, relationships, and life transitions through personalized attention, coping strategies, and positive change. Experience compassionate guidance and evidence-based techniques for personal growth and emotional well-being. Embark on a transformative journey.

  • Group Therapy

    Group therapy sessions provide a secure and nurturing space for individuals to come together, forming meaningful connections and fostering personal growth. Through the exchange of collective experiences, participants receive invaluable empathy, support, and motivation, enabling them to gain fresh perspectives and develop effective coping mechanisms in a warm and camaraderie-filled setting. Engage in these sessions to experience firsthand the transformative influence of human connection and mutual understanding.

  • Retreats on Spiritual Care and Mental Health

    Experience transformative self-discovery and healing at a Spiritual Care and Mental Health Retreat. Immerse in a tranquil environment for growth, guided by expert facilitators. Engage in meditation, mindfulness, and group discussions to deepen understanding of spirituality and mental well-being. Unplug and embrace a holistic approach to soul and mind nurturing. Embark on profound inner peace, resilience, and spiritual rejuvenation.

How it works

Our first few sessions will likely involve an evaluation of your needs either in person or online. By the end of the evaluation, I will be able to offer some ideas of what our work will include along with a treatment plan if you decide to continue with therapy.

It is important for you to evaluate this information along with your own opinions of whether you feel comfortable working with me. Therapy involves a large commitment of time, money and energy. If you have any questions about my procedures, we can discuss them whenever they arise.

About the space

I value creating a comforting and safe environment for my clients. The therapy space is designed to provide a welcoming and peaceful atmosphere where individuals can feel at ease when seeking support and guidance. The decor is carefully chosen to promote a sense of tranquility and solace, with soft lighting, comfortable seating, and soothing colours to help clients feel relaxed and secure during their sessions. This environment is crucial in establishing a strong therapeutic alliance and facilitating open communication.

I understand the vulnerability that comes with seeking psychotherapy, and my goal is to create a space where individuals feel validated, heard, and understood. Clients can rest assured that they will be met with compassion and respect as they embark on their personal journey towards healing and growth.
