Find a Therapist in Magnetawan, Ontario.

As a Registered Psychotherapist I guide clients through a discovery process providing a thorough connection between the psychological underpinnings of emotion and behaviour. Raising awareness of these underlying trends becomes the bedrock of recovery, enabling them to work through the often devastating impact that these repeated negative patterns are having in their lives.

I’ve been helping people lead more intentional lives for over 20 years. Psychotherapy supports you in reaching self-awareness. No matter what the circumstance, you have the ability to be resilient. I can help you manage your journey. I’m trained in cognitive behavioral therapy, developmental models,and anxiety and depression management. I will support you in creating a set of tools to help you discover your objective. Most importantly, you're a distinctive person, with distinctive needs. My goal is to work with you as a unique individual, and focus on YOUR goals.

Are you struggling with feeling "not quite yourself" lately? Has this begun to make it difficult to function in your day-to-day life? Perhaps the pandemic's got you down or you are challenged by past trauma or regret. Inner Alchemy Psychotherapy can help you reframe your perspective and life story, opening you up to new and different possibilities for what you had previously imagined for yourself. If you have always lived your life on the fringe and have always felt doubtful that you'd find a therapist who would "get" you, Inner Alchemy Psychotherapy is for you. My ideal clients are those who have alternative approaches to relationship, spirituality, and lifestyle.

Many people have ideas about how therapy should look or feel based on what they have seen in movies or tv, and some of those ideas can be scary or intimidating. Therapy should be a safe space where you feel comfortable sharing and exploring your thoughts, feelings, and experiences with someone who offers you empathy, authenticity, and acceptance. I believe that clients are the experts in their lives and will work collaboratively with you to explore the stories you hold about yourself and the world around you to find meaning, facilitate change, and highlight your strengths and successes. Book a free consultation to learn more about my approach and explore if we are a good fit.

In all of the work that I do with clients, there are some primary goals: Promote understanding and eliminate ambiguity. It is only through understanding that we can create comprehensive and meaningful change. I also focus quite heavily on exploring tools and treatment methods with my clients so that they can find their desired change. I incorporate elements of cognitive and behavioural interventions along with a myriad of psychological principles into my psychotherapeutic work.

Psychotherapy is a longer journey that examines the present and the past to identify the repeated patterns of unhelpful approaches to your life's challenges. The goal is to better provide you with insights and skills for the future. It's a process that fosters self-discovery, helping you uncover your strengths, resilience, and psychological awareness. One of the key challenges is to maintain a balance between exploring the past and staying present, ensuring we don't overlook something important in your current life for your future.
