Description
As a Registered Psychotherapist I work with individuals on issues such as depression, mood and anxiety, trauma and its aftereffects, personality disorders, relationship issues, life transitions and unwanted substance use. I draw on over 20 years of experience as a relational, interpersonal and psychodynamic psychotherapist. My work is informed by attachment theory, somatic and emotionally focused approaches, Internal Family Systems, neurobiological research as well as CBT and mindfulness. Sessions occur online, and in-person East of Toronto. Feel free to email me for more information.

Summary
Therapy opens a shared space in which to talk about problems, explore difficulties in relationships, or simply create a new avenue in which to hear yourself speak out loud about you. Psychotherapy is often a longer-term in-depth exploration, while therapy or counseling is a short-term problem-focused search for understanding, strategies and change. The goal of psychotherapy is to help you feel better, more comfortable with who you are, what you feel, and why you behave in ways that have evolved over time. Therapy helps create understanding, choice, and change.
