ABOUT

I appreciate how difficult it can be to seek help and find the right therapist. Choosing your therapist is a very personal decision. It needs to feel right. Whether you're seeking help for difficulties in sexual matters, relationships, or for anxiety/mood disorders - it takes courage and determination to reach out to a stranger for support, guidance, and hopefully, change. My approach, first and foremost, is to provide you with a non-judgmental, compassionate, and supportive atmosphere. I will then help you deal with your hardships and encourage you along the bumpy path that is often necessary to achieve permanent change.
My areas of expertise include treating sexual and couple difficulties, anxiety, depression, interpersonal difficulties, as well as issues related to self-esteem and wellness. My actual approach to therapy is integrative, while grounded in evidence-based methods. While my primary approach to therapy is cognitive-behavioural, I draw upon different treatment approaches so as to provide a client-centered intervention that is guided by my client’s current symptoms and by evidence based practice.
My goal is to help you develop new skills to approach challenges in a healthier way, and to guide you in gaining a different perspective of yourself. My hope is that therapy can also guide you along a journey of personal growth and change, and ultimately empower you to have a sense of mastery and confidence in the way you approach life and its challenges.

TREATMENT APPROACH

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a type of psychotherapy that focuses on how one's thoughts, feelings and behaviors are connected and can be changed. It is based on the idea that how we think (cognition) and how we feel (emotion) can influence how we behave. CBT helps people identify and challenge distorted thinking and replace it with more balanced thinking, leading to improved mood and behavior. ‘Homework’, usually containing practical writing exercises, is often completed by the client between sessions to reinforce the therapy. Examples of tools that practitioners often use are journaling, challenging beliefs, and mindfulness.
