Therapists in Port Hope, ON

Hey there - As a therapy survivor myself, I know that it is often hard to reach out. I want to encourage you that I can relate, and also know that the first step to change comes with taking a courageous leap to work on your own goals! I am incredibly passionate about my role as a Registered Psychotherapist (with the CRPO). Life has had its share of ups and downs for me, which I believe have helped me understand my clients in a deeper level. I find a lot of joy out of those 'ah-ha' moments, when a client breaks free from what is holding them back, or finds healing on their journey. It's truly an honour to walk with every client!

Accepting new clients. Each person’s journey is unique and deserves space to be heard and understood. I provide a compassionate and safe therapeutic relationship where my clients can learn about themselves and develop ways to cope and thrive. Whether you are an individual, part of a committed intimate relationship or a family looking to explore new ways of connecting and growing I am honored to share space with you and be a part of your journey.

All of us at times feel overwhelmed, struggle with anxiety or feel sad and unmotivated. Sometimes we feel stuck, whether in a relationship, a work situation or with unhealthy habits we are struggling to break. From a compassionate and empathetic place, I aim to normalize your experiences. I will help you to develop skills and strategies to not just cope but to THRIVE. You will learn about setting healthy expectations, boundaries, and developing a holistic approach to managing life stressors. Our goal is to build a meaningful and authentic life that is in line with your personal values.

Do you feel disconnected with yourself or in your relationships? Maybe past experiences have contributed to this. Or you recognize the challenge in our tech-savvy world, to unplug and tune in to yourself and to each other. Our early and ongoing experiences with family, friends, significant other(s), etc impact how we connect and attach; they impact mental health and well-being. We are more likely to thrive when we feel safely and securely connected to another person(s). When our relationships are instead overwhelmed with tension, pain, lack of understanding, etc we often struggle to feel and manage well.

"The very purpose of our life is to seek happiness" Dalai Lama. I specialize relational psychotherapy, helping couples and individuals in finding their natural mental balance. I believe there is hope for everyone and that our mental health and well being comes down to balance and being centred. I assist couples to get back on track and also individuals to find their root cause which in turn provides insight and also self-awareness.

I offer a casual, inclusive space for teens and adults who are finding it difficult to navigate through the challenges of life. In a safe and judgement-free environment, we can work together to identify obstacles that are preventing you from moving forward. We can uncover the patterns that fuel your unwanted behaviour, and begin to build a foundation for resilience and growth. As a psychotherapist, it is my role to empower my clients to see their potential for growth and to construct a reasonable and attainable path through working together to set goals.

As humans we want to know we have a purpose, strengths, love and relationships. When these ideas are shaken up it can be challenging to move forward. Working with me as your Therapist can renew your sense of meeting your own needs. Feeling safe, and supported is a fundamental need and if you aren’t feeling that I can help bring that in to your life. You don’t need to know what help you need to visit me; we can find and explore that together.

I'm here to listen with compassion, and to support you to find the way forward that feels the best for you in your unique situation. Daytime and evening appts available.

There are moments in life when we face adversities that leave us feeling overwhelmed, sad, anxious, hopeless, isolated, and/or stressed. Perhaps there is a problem that seems impossible to solve. Perhaps it seems like no one could possibly understand your experiences. Perhaps you aren’t even sure where to begin. I can support you to identify where you may be feeling stuck in your life and empower you to find ways to create balance within yourself and in your relationships with others and your environment.

It can be a daunting task to seek out therapy options and support. Finding the "perfect personal fit" is essential to aid in the process of having a positive experience with therapy. It allows for trust, vulnerability and honesty to flow naturally which fosters a good therapeutic relationship between a therapist and client. I have over 10 years experience providing therapy support in a myriad of clinical settings for all ages and take pride in building and nurturing the therapeutic relationship as part of the therapy process.

Life is full of challenges that don’t have to be navigated alone and I would be honoured to be a part of your journey towards growth, healing, and self-discovery. I’d like to thank you for your vulnerability and willingness to show up for yourself and ask for help - as I recognize it isn’t easy. Therapy is a powerful tool that can help heal old wounds, improve personal well-being, & create meaningful change in our lives. Your past may influence your present, however, it does not need to determine your future.

It takes an incredible amount of strength to reach out for help. Deciding to embark on the process of change can feel overwhelming and it can be difficult to know where to start. Your process has brought you here to this site and that is already a significant step. Whether you are struggling with a single experience or a lifetime of experiences, therapy can be beneficial. The therapeutic process can be helpful to make sense of your thoughts, identify barriers to change and explore new ways of coping. Therapy can be empowering.
