Psychotherapy focused on improving the mental health of women.
Appointments are available in person in Toronto, Ontario, or virtually in Toronto and anywhere in Ontario, Canada.
Welcome to your new chapter,
let’s write it together.
My Approach
I use a goal-oriented and strength-based approach in therapy to help women evolve through the glorious, and not so glorious stages of life. Leaning on my academic and business backgrounds, I use evidence-based techniques founded upon neuroscience and psychological research.
Your sessions can be in-person, in a calm mid-town Toronto setting, or through a secure virtual web platform for any clients in Toronto or Ontario. I believe, and research shows, that the relationship between the therapist and client is the key to meaningful and effective therapy. Your free 15-minute consultation session is to check out whether you and I are a good fit, with no obligation to continue.
Whether you are beginning a relationship, going through a divorce, preparing for children, experiencing an empty nest, or having fertility issues, you will feel supported throughout. We will work in partnership as you develop resilience to face anticipated and unexpected life challenges.
I look forward to meeting you and helping you write the next new chapter of your life!
