Psychotherapy's major objectives are to reduce symptoms, maintain or enhance day-to-day functioning, and improve quality of life. Psychotherapy helps with managing stressful life events, the effects of trauma, medical disease, or bereavement (such as the death of a loved one), and some mental health issues like anxiety or depression. Positive physiological and neurological changes have been associated with psychotherapy, which has been shown to enhance emotional and psychological health. Psychotherapy comes in a variety of forms, and certain forms may be more effective in particular therapeutic contexts. Psychotherapy may be used in combination with medication or other therapies.

The foundation of therapy is a trusting and supportive relationship where people can feel safe to explore themselves and the world around them. Each person comes to therapy with a unique story and as a therapist, I believe in providing a treatment experience that is as unique as the individual themselves. I provide therapy using a strengths-based and collaborative lens and foster healing through connection and empowerment. Book a free consultation to see if we are a good fit.

Psychotherapy, also known as talk-therapy, is a process of conversation and interaction between a therapist and a client aimed at helping the client manage mental health concerns. Some common concerns include depression, anxiety, stress and trauma - different practitioners will pull on different types of therapy, however, the best predictor of treatment success is the quality of your relationship with your therapist. When accessing a psychotherapist, you can expect a supportive relationship where you and them work together to identify what contributes to your concerns, how you can make sense of them and ways forward to resolve the negative impact they have on you.

Psychotherapy with me involves building a mutually respectful and collaborative therapeutic alliance so that we can safely and openly address and process your issues. Through this process, you can gain valuable insight and self-knowledge. I believe that change happens when you become fully self-aware of your thoughts, feelings, and behaviours, and from that point on you can choose how you would like to think, feel, and behave going forward.

My approach to Psychotherapy is dynamic in that I use a variety of integrative modalities. I believe that it is important to be able provide clients with various treatment models, as we are each client is unique. In addition, I use Mindfulness and a Sensorimotor approach throughout my psychotherapeutic services, as it is a necessary part of the healing journey.

Mental health is just as important as physical health. If you’re feeling a bit down, or maybe you thought you heard something, you’d probably shrug it off. But, if it persists or gets worse, like you’re constantly sad, don’t want to leave the house, and constantly feeling tired or you’ve been seeing someone following and you feel that your brain is disorganized, then you need to see a mental health clinician like a psychotherapist. Even when you’re experiencing the subtle symptoms, it never hurts to have a check up. Reach out to schedule a free 15-minute consultation to start your healing journey.

Psychotherapy is a dynamic process that provides great explanations for understanding human behavior. Personality development begins during the first years of life. Children born into warm and empathic environments are likely to grow into healthy adults. If this nurturing is absent personality disorders can develop. Psychotherapy explains some of these derailments. Without help many people continue to function in dysfunctional ways. The barriers erected to survive in the past become harmful to their present situation. Psychotherapy helps people re-gain a feeling of safety and self esteem. Through this restoration people are then able to begin enjoying more meaningful relationships.

Psychotherapy is a talk-based therapy in which folks can explore their concerns related to life challenges, stressors, mental health and well-being in a non-judgemental space. I believe that “individual” concerns go beyond the individual and are deeply connected to the way we interact with the world and others. As such, my approach to psychotherapy draws on systemic therapies that focus on broader sociocultural influences, intersections of identity and relational patterns. I value collaboration, authenticity and anti-oppressive practice in the therapeutic space. Contact me for a free consultation to determine if we would be a good fit.
