Living with ADHD can make everyday life feel overwhelming at times, with challenges like managing focus, regulating emotions, or keeping up with responsibilities. In psychotherapy (talk therapy), I’ll help you understand how your ADHD shapes your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Together, we’ll develop routines, coping strategies, and systems that work with your brain while addressing emotional and cognitive blocks. The goal is to help you build self-trust, resilience, and a greater sense of balance, confidence, and clarity in your life.

Patterns of self-sabotaging behavioural, disorganized thinking and overwhelming emotion make life very difficult. How can we move forward when our bodies seem to betray us and we just need a break from the buzzing anxiety or the numbing of depression? What you may not know is all these symptoms are the imprint of our unfinished business, stuck in the body and just begging to be seen, cared for and accepted. Working with me means looking with curiosity, compassion and an educated-eye at how old wounds of betrayal, abandonment and rejection show up to block living your best life. You are not alone and there is hope.

Clients who receive psychotherapy from me will learn about the root of their issues and how to heal these wounds. Many issues we face in life are deep rooted in our childhood or resulting from traumas we have survived and need to be addressed to be truly free and achieve peace and serenity. I will help you learn to live a vital, rich meaningful life and overcome any mental health issues.

Psychotherapy is commonly used for both short-term and long-term therapy to help clients come to a harmonious state of being. Using many different types of psychotherapy techniques, as a therapist, we can target a clients thoughts, emotions and behaviours that are causing them problems. A focus of psychotherapy is to create positive change and a better quality of life for clients. This includes improved relationships, creating self-awareness and understanding of oneself, and overall better functioning in day-to-day life.

In therapy with me, you’re stepping into a space where you don’t have to perform or hold anything together. We explore the raw, unfiltered parts of your story—the hurts, hopes, questions, and contradictions—trusting that they all carry wisdom worth hearing. I guide you to reflect deeply on your patterns and choices, helping you make thoughtful changes that align with your values. Clients often leave feeling more centered, more compassionate toward themselves, and more intentional in how they live, equipped to move through life with clarity, confidence, and purpose.

Psychotherapy with me will offer you a secure non-judgmental relationship to grow in your goals. Together we will explore what is bringing you into therapy and with compassion and curiousity notice what comes up for you when you seek to make change. As we explore what comes up, we will use tools to get to the roots of those blocks and discover deeper part of you that can provide you with that felt sense of relief and new found energy.

Psychotherapy is not just about healing; it's about discovering one's true self and embracing change. It inspires growth, fosters inner peace, and illuminates the path to a more fulfilling future.

As a "Generalist" counsellor, I utilize various treatment modalities as per the needs/issues presented by my client. My role as I see it, is to "lead by following". The goals developed are the goals of the client. I actively support the counselling process by identifying issues, events, relationships that facilitate a deeper understanding as to what the client needs from counselling, in order for them to find resolution within. Some of my modalities may include Family Systems, Narrative, Mindfulness-Cognitive, Existential, and Psycho-Dynamic.
