Therapists in Ontario

Do you feel like you're stuck in old patterns? Are you always zoning out or in crisis mode? Do you struggle to connect with your body and aren't quite sure what it means to feel your feelings? Would you prefer to work with a queer therapist with experience supporting 2SLGBTQ+ folks and who is committed to integrating social justice into therapeutic work?

Therapy isn’t about fixing you — because you’re not broken. You’re human, and that’s messy enough. Adulting can feel like assembling IKEA furniture without the manual — confusing, frustrating, and somehow missing a crucial piece. Together, we’ll make space to breathe, reflect, and build a life that feels more grounded, more honest, and more like you. No perfection required.

Whether you're navigating the emotional complexities of infertility, struggling with self-worth, processing grief, feeling lost in a life transition, or disconnected in your relationships, you are not alone, and you don't have to go through it alone. I strive to create a collaborative, non-judgmental space where you can show up as you are and where we can make sense of things together.

I support clients in processing emotions, regulating their nervous systems, and healing from attachment wounds and trauma. My approach helps people feel more at ease in their bodies, make clearer decisions, and build more connected relationships with themselves and others. I'm currently accepting new clients and offer free 15-minute consultations. Feel free to reach out if you'd like to connect!

Loss changes you. My clients are often the first in their circle to experience a major loss—isolated, overwhelmed, unsure who they are now. Your $h!t is upside down. I help people navigate complicated, traumatic, and anticipatory loss, including those facing big responsibilities early in life. Therapy with me is honest, relational, and tailored.

Are you feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or stuck? I've helped many people overcome feelings of sadness, anxiety, and self-doubt, empowering them to live more fulfilling lives. Together, we can work through the challenges in your family, at work, in education, or friendships. If you and your partner are struggling, couples therapy is also provided via Zoom or in person (Danforth and Richmond Hill).

Relationships of any kind can be challenging. I never underestimate how complicated things can get once we tease out the relational pieces in our lives and try to understand how they are affecting us.

If you feel stuck in cycles of binge eating, dieting, guilt, or feeling out of control around food, you’re not alone. Therapy offers a supportive, non-judgmental space to understand what’s driving these patterns and build a healthier, more peaceful relationship with food, your body, and yourself.

What happened to you matters, but so does what happens next. Maybe you look "fine" on the outside but feel a lot of complicated things on the inside. You might be thriving in some ways while struggling deeply in others. You're successful and still feel completely overwhelmed. You appear to be keeping it together while quietly wondering how much longer you can manage the weight you’re carrying.

Welcome! If you are here, you are likely considering finding some support for what may seem like another one of life's never-ending challenges. I can support you with that. You have already taken the first step. All you need to do next is reach out and book a free consultation so we can discuss what it is you are looking for.

I have experience supporting individuals through life transitions, emotional challenges, and personal growth. My approach is compassionate and collaborative, focused on helping clients gain insight, build resilience, and create lasting, meaningful change.

I embrace the profound truth that we are all interconnected when we mindfully inhabit the present moment. As therapists, we acknowledge the intricate web of human experiences, emotions, and relationships. This awareness creates a nurturing space where clients can explore their inner landscapes with compassion. Together, we embark on a journey of empathy, resilience, and shared transformation.

If you feel that you are not living your best life, your relationships are not what you hoped they would be, or the conflict in your life is not going away, perhaps it is time to talk to someone about it. Starting counselling is a brave first step and I will be there to support you through this process. Additionally, I provide supervision to Social Workers in Private Practice.

Are you hoping to feel less "stuck," anxious, or sad? Is there a part of you hoping to reconnect with yourself and build confidence, build better boundaries, or understand how your childhood impacts your present? Do you want to learn coping strategies or skills for daily life or ADHD? Have you experienced a loss that you're looking to work through, or find stress is too present in your day?

I practice relational psychotherapy, which sees both suffering & healing as rooted in relationships. I support individuals & couples to grow their capacities to feel, reflect, & connect more deeply to themselves & others. I take a collaborative, trauma-informed, & anti-oppressive stance, holding curiosity for how social contexts, your personal history, & identities impact you & our work together.

Helping Men Overcome Relationship Struggles Through Self-Awareness I help men break free from unhealthy relationship patterns by fostering self-awareness through a psychodynamic approach.
