Find a Therapist in Kingston, Ontario.

Are you a perfectionist or a people pleaser? We work clients who feel unfulfilled in their personal and professional lives and relationships. You may feel stressed, exhausted, or just going through the motions of your life. Moreover, you may be re-evaluating your priorities. Anxiety, depression, or feelings of overwhelm may be at play, and you may feel like you want a safe space to assess how you got to where you are today. We will work with you to explore your current relationships, family-of-origin issues, and support you in working through grief, loss, anxiety, or trauma. You don't have to do this alone!

My approach is individualized and client-centered. It is important to build a trusting therapeutic relationship. I believe this is done by providing a non-judgmental space to client to share their own story, so they feel respected and heard. Providing the client education, coping strategies, an opportunity to discard unworkable strategies, and realign with their values, they may feel more connected to their mind and body.

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.

Psychotherapy using ISTDP and CBT involves addressing core feelings and negative thought patterns that have often been pushed away by a host of automatic defensive methods either consciously or unconsciously to lower anxiety. Helping people identify, experience and express these emotions and confront negative automatic thoughts to learn more adaptive strategies can yield enormous benefits on mood and our level of social role functioning. In this model, therapist and client work as a team by having meaningful discussions and addressing anxiety and therapeutic relationship issues that may arise in session- to practice these key skills for everyday living.

I use a trauma-informed, narrative therapy approach to engaging in psychotherapy with people aged 14 years and older. This means that you can expect that your experience will feel collaborative, safe and be focused on the topics that you feel are important to you. You can expect that from the very first session you will leave feeling like you have gained something useful out of it.

Psychotherapy uses theories and models to serve as “roadmaps” for therapists. They help guide us through client problems, challenges and struggles, as well as determine the best treatment approach. There is no “one size fits all” approach or intervention. We are all unique. Through our own life experiences, psychotherapists gain knowledge and insight about their client’s struggles. They use different forms of psychotherapy to help individuals identify and bring their abilities and wisdom to their own awareness. This is an important part of the therapy “process”.

Life is a journey and we are presented with various challenges along the way. Sometimes we find a path forward and sometimes we get stuck and need guidance and support. Psychotherapy can be an opportunity for you to connect with a trained professional to explore the challenges you are experiencing and to discover new tools and perspectives. As a psychotherapist, I support you on your journey by creating a relationship with you that’s built on safety, openness, and trust. I also help you to discover the resilience that you hold and I support you in strengthening or re-defining the relationships within your life.

Psychotherapy has been found to be an effective form of aiding in your health & well-being. My goal is to help you to optimize your overall health as mental/emotional/spiritual wellness plays a key role in your physical well-being. I believe that the difficulties and challenges that you are struggling with are a normal and understandable reaction to damaging circumstances that you have been through. With my guidance and support I encourage you to explore these areas in your life that have been influenced and tap into your unique and innocent talents and strengths to work to overcome the harmful effects of those circumstances. I draw on a variety of approaches to meet your unique needs.

All therapy involves some degree of psychotherapy. We will treat mental health issues through verbal interactions and communications in the therapy process. We can identify cognitive distortions and work on restructuring them. Discussing issues and getting an objective viewpoint can be illuminating. By talking about your struggles I can help guide you into a better frame of mind and choose healthier actions.

Psychotherapy is the essence of my practice. Using the modalities of psychotherapy, I aim to help individuals, families and couples live a more content life, making changes to their lives that help them live more content and productive lives. Psychotherapy can help you understand yourself, your behaviour, and your relationships better, enabling you to live your life aware of your strengths, blindspots and goals and how to achieve them.

James Hillman once said, "We've had a hundred years of psychotherapy and the world is getting worse." While there are many occasions where the validation and listening endemic to psychotherapy makes sense, there are times where we over assume that "feeling better" and "changing behavior" are the same. Grey Matters International, Inc. goes after the forgotten brain laws to behavior change that therapists miss when processing hours and hours of dialogues with people. Utilizing a cutting edge technology to facilitate the emotional process of change, we can make the therapy process way more effective, faster, and with less money spent.

Psychotherapy is the process of discussing issues in a safe space with a trained and licensed professional who, using ethical and effective methods, can assist clients in understanding their thoughts, emotions and behaviours. As a Registered Psychotherapist, with a specialization in abuse and trauma, I am accustomed to hearing and expressing empathy regarding very difficult situations. If there are words you have never felt safe to speak outloud or stories you need to tell about your past and how it has influenced your present, I will listen without judgement. Working together we can determine how you may progress toward meaningful change.

Using a range of therapeutic techniques, I help clients develop healthier coping strategies, improve their relationships, and create a more balanced and fulfilling life.
