Are you feeling overwhelmed? Do you feel like your mind is constantly running? Do you feel that this is impacting your mood and behaviour? If this sounds familiar and you would like some help, then you are doing the right thing reading this right now. Dealing with any of these concerns can be really tiring and seeking a therapist that is a good fit can be daunting. I help individuals understand and manage their concerns related to self-esteem, anxiety or depression. My approach to therapy is to help you with your concerns by offering a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental environment using evidence-based techniques.

Psychotherapy, particularly cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) is the most widely used evidence-based treatment for anxiety, while mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT) is a useful technique for depression. I use both of these and various other modalities to help you better understand and manage your concerns.

I believe that therapy is a collaborative process. While I may have knowledge about evidence-based treatments, I firmly believe that you are the expert in your life! I work with clients to help them navigate their unique challenges and help them determine suitable coping techniques to overcome their personal concerns.

I often like to use evidence based methods like CBT in addition to mindfulness. CBT helps us become more aware of our thoughts, which then help us understand our emotions, reactions and behaviours to certain situations.
