Our therapists often hear from clients who say, "I'm aware of what I need to do, but I struggle to take action." This sentiment may resonate with you. It's normal to feel unsure and anxious during times of crisis, family conflict, relationship issues, or any significant life changes. However, if these emotions hinder your progress, ignoring them won't make them go away. It's crucial to acknowledge your fears, pinpoint their origins, and take proactive steps to overcome them for your well-being.

Effective therapy occurs when a safe therapeutic relationship is present, allowing you to feel comfortable in processing difficult emotions/memories.
Are you feeling anxious, having excessive worries, fearing judgement, or even feeling uncomfortable in your body? You’ve been trying to cope alone with how you’re feeling, but things just don’t seem to be getting any easier. It feels like your mood is quick to change and as though you don’t have control over your emotions or thoughts. Feeling stuck in these issues and in your own head might be leading you to feel hopeless about yourself and the future. I specialize in helping individuals better understand, manage and address social anxiety, stress, sadness, anxiety, feeling disconnected, relationship difficulties and more.

Couples often find themselves facing a myriad of challenges as they navigate the intricate terrain of a relationship. Communication breakdowns stand as one of the most common hurdles, where misunderstandings and misinterpretations can erode trust and intimacy. Trust issues, stemming from past experiences or breaches of confidence, can cast long shadows over a partnership, making it challenging to fully open up to one another. Financial stresses, from managing joint finances to differing spending habits, can introduce strain into a relationship.

I often work on relationship issues, trauma, difficulty connecting with others, impulsivity, conflict, communication, loneliness, depression, anxiety, self-esteem, immigration and acculturation, and multicultural stress.
When I think about therapy, I imagine my client’s search for well-being and healing as if they were lost and trying to find their way home. You might know where home is, but find yourself stuck in darkness, not being able to find your way. As your therapist, I see myself holding the flashlight. You are the one who knows your way to healing, and I have the tools to help get you there easier. This is what I believe therapy looks like; us walking together on your journey. As we travel together to help you find “home”—your place of healing, peace, and comfort—while I share my knowledge and tools to help you find that “home”.

Relationship Issues Counsellors
While need for human connection appears to be innate, the ability to form healthy, loving relationships is learned. Some evidence suggests that the ability to form a stable relationship starts to form in infancy, in a child's earliest experiences with a caregiver who reliably meets the infant's needs for food, care, warmth, protection, stimulation, and social contact. Such relationships are not destiny, but they are theorized to establish deeply ingrained patterns of relating to others. The end of a relationship, however, is often a source of great psychological anguish.
