Welcome! Taking the first step in a journey towards wellness is often the toughest part. If you are feeling overwhelmed, stressed out, struggling to process your emotions, or difficulty feeling fulfilled, I would be honoured to walk alongside you as you take the first steps to heal and grow. Whether you have experienced a recent trauma or life event that has brought you pain, or altered the path you were walking on. Or, perhaps you have been struggling for a while to overcome anxious feelings and sadness. Therapy is a place to discover a new way of being in the world.
Therapy is designed to help you become more self-aware, and give you tools to overcome the struggles you are facing. Remote therapy only.

I work with clients to help them identify and tackle the obstacles blocking them from enjoying a healthier, happier and more fulfilling life. Together, we’ll work to understand how your past may be influencing your life today, how you make sense of and derive meaning and purpose from life, and how you can bolster your resilience when faced with future challenging experiences.
I provide counselling and coaching in-person in my Westmount, Montreal practice and online via Zoom. If you are interested in discussing your specific needs and how I may be able to help, please feel free to contact me.

Do you often feel anxious, worried, and depressed? How about frustrated or even guilty? Perhaps you have experienced trauma, feel lost trying to understand your mind, and want to reduce the impact of painful thoughts and feelings. I can help you to find calm and peace in your life, and create a rich, full and meaningful life. I am a Registered Psychotherapist and a Brainspotting Therapist who specialized in treating people with Anxiety, Depression and Trauma. My approach to therapy is evidence-based, trauma informed, culturally sensitive and involves creating a safe and a non-judgemental space, and, collaboratively, coming up with a plan that would suit you. We can work together to find your healthier self.

I believe we all have the ability to work through our own struggles when provided with a safe nonjudgemental space to process thoughts, emotions and memories. I aim to provide that space to people as I have benefited from that process myself over the years. I don’t believe I’m an expert in anyone else’s life but I have expertise in listening, asking questions and helping people tolerate and regulate difficult emotions and thoughts. I have struggled in the past myself and know that a good therapist can make a huge difference, so I strive to be that therapist for others.

I work within an integrative approach, utilizing person-centered, CBT, ACT, DBT, IPT, IFS, EFT and psychodynamic interventions. I consider the individual and their presenting concerns, thus pulling from different orientations to best suit my client. My approach to psychotherapy relies heavily on existential ideologies, highlighting our shared human experience of daily struggles and pain and suffering. I also recognize the uniqueness of each of our stories and strengths, creating a therapy where one leaves with more insight and trust within thyself.

I have been working with adult individuals and couples for over 10 years now. My practice focuses on existential humanistic therapy, compassionate counselling for those suffering grief, loss, pain, and isolation. Ultimately, the main goal is to discover one’s meaning and develop it to build more strength and confidence to achieve other goals. Many of my clients are men suffering depression, some even contemplating suicide. I use cognitive behavioural therapy to assist them in analyzing and coordinating their thoughts, behaviours, and actions into more effective and satisfying lives. I work online and by telephone with Canadian clients in British Columbia, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Newfoundland and Labrador, as well as the Territories. Remote therapy only.

Sessions use a combination of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Social Constructivist and Somatic and Mindful approaches to get to your unique story, and make you the author of your own story.

In my experience, and according to research, the biggest factor in how well therapy works is the client-therapist relationship. That’s one reason you can expect me to be genuine, empathetic, positive, and affirming. Also, I don’t have a “one size fits all” approach to therapy. Instead, I will work with you to custom-fit a therapy experience based on your unique needs and expressed concerns.

I use Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) to help you set realistic goals, learn new ways to respond to your negative thoughts, and change the behaviours that hold you back from living your best life. You are active in therapy, which helps maintain your progress in the long-term.
My aim is to work with you to help increase your confidence, and address the fears holding you back. If you think new mindset CBT is right for you, contact me for a free 15-minute phone consultation.

My therapeutic approach integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT), and Somatic Therapy models to help you navigate life’s challenges and thoughts in a way that aligns with your core values. At the heart of this work is the therapeutic relationship, which provides a safe space so you may explore your vulnerabilities. Grounded in trauma-informed care, my approach will support you in reconnecting with your values and spirituality, empowering you to engage more fully and authentically in your relationships and life overall.
