My psychotherapy practice combines principles from cognitive-behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, mindfulness, and existential therapies to facilitate deep and lasting change. Clients gain skills to reframe negative thoughts, accept their experiences, remain mindful, and explore life's profound questions. This holistic approach fosters emotional resilience, mental clarity, and a stronger sense of purpose, empowering clients to overcome obstacles and achieve meaningful personal growth.

Close your eyes and imagine yourself sitting in a movie theatre (on second thought keep them open -- it'll make it much easier to keep reading). Now imagine the movie that's playing on the screen is your life. Psychotherapy is like a private screening of your life's movie with a trained expert. It's a place where you'll get to collaboratively review, discuss, and revise aspects of your movie, all from the unique perspective of someone in the audience. You choose which clips to play and we'll cue 'em up together. The experience should be fun, fascinating, and meaningful to you -- everything you'd expect from the cost of admission! https://www.intunecounselling.com/blog/the-audience-effect

Psychotherapy is the use of psychological methods to help a person change behavior and overcome problems in a positive manner. Its aim is to help people understand the thoughts behind feeling anxious or depressed and addressing these thinking patterns. Psychotherapy will help you change behaviors and habits that are limiting you, to experiencing your fullest potential.

As a Registered Psychotherapist part of what I offer is psychotherapy which is a further in-depth exploration of issues that are bothering you. Together, we will explore the origins and roots of these issues to better understand how your past has impacted you and how it is perhaps continuing to impact you today. From there, we will collaboratively work on a plan to determine how to use that information in order to allow you to work through your current challenges.

As opposed to many of the behaviourally-based (simple fix) treatments available today, psychotherapy involves going deeper. This might include looking at coping skills or patterns you developed as a child which, though they served you well then, may be getting in the way of your life now. Psychotherapy is less about learning tools, and more about developing insights about oneself and one's loved ones. While many therapies today focus on changing behaviour in the here and now, psychotherapy often involves looking at what may underlie emotional or relational patterns, such as having difficulty saying no, or struggling to trust others. It involves being more honest and authentic with oneself.

The gift of pain, is that it is designed to move us out of negative patterns, toxic relationships and draining situations. I believe that people have the wisdom and the answers inside of them, but need support to identify and remove whatever is in the way of accessing and acting upon that wisdom. I assist in this with a combination of approaches that include looking at beliefs, patterns and narratives that you are operating from, and exploring ways to shift those patterns and beliefs. Sometimes we may need to engage in ways to access information that is non-verbal, using art therapy, journal prompts, and dreamwork to help you align with the life that you feel good about and want to be in.

In life, we go through experiences that are very hard to talk about. We may not fully understand what happened to us or how to deal with it, or even express it. Therapy is a place to sort it out. It’s a space to increase understanding and grow skills and strength. It’s also an opportunity to make a connection to another human being and, through it, begin healing from the wounds that life has given us. I would like to be here for you on this inner journey and support you as you recover. I have dedicated my life to my own journey and helping others as well over the past 16 years. I encourage you to reach out and unburden yourself by sharing your story with someone who understands.

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 incorporate elements of cognitive and behavioural interventions along with a myriad of psychological principles into my psychotherapeutic work.

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!

Together we will meet and identify the problem(s); I will propose a treatment plan and together we will discuss the plan as well as determine whether the match between therapist and client is a solid one in order to move forward.

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 approaches I use when it comes to individual psychotherapy are those of cognitive behavioural therapy and narrative therapy. These approaches, allow for a better understanding of the influence that our emotions, thoughts and behaviours have on our day-to-day life. As for couples therapy, I use the Gottman Method and systemic therapy. The focus is on the relationship of the couple and how family can influence the dynamics of the relationship.

Psychotherapy is ideally a safe place for clients to begin unpacking their issues to begin looking forward towards their best hopes. While it can certainly be challenging and intimidating, my goal is to help clients embrace the discomfort in exploring these tough issues to ideally imagine a better future to ultimately pursue. While my practice can center around resolution of goals, I also believe some people just need a trained clinician to talk to in a less goal-oriented formal matter.

Psychotherapy is primarily a talk-based therapy and is intended to help you improve and maintain positive mental health and well-being. I work with individuals, couples and families in individual and group settings. Psychotherapy occurs when the Registered Psychotherapist (RP) and client enter into a psychotherapeutic relationship where both work together to bring about positive change in the client’s thinking, feeling, behaviour and social functioning. Individuals usually seek psychotherapy when they have thoughts, feelings, moods and behaviours that are adversely affecting their day-to-day lives, relationships and the ability to enjoy life.

You're complex. You have many parts and they don't always get along. Everything that you are takes time, space, and skill to explore and grow. Psychotherapy is about you and your growth. Together we can tease apart what makes you you. From there, we can start to draw links from who you were, what happened to you, to who you are and want to be. Let's dive in there and figure these things out to build the better you.

As a psychotherapist I have long experienced that it is precisely through the process of verbalizing thoughts that my clients are able to gain a clear sense of their reality--words clarify the vagueness of ideas. And once a reality is expressed, then a client can move toward acceptance of that reality and toward understanding of how to shape that reality in a way that best meets their needs and aspirations.

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.
