NIHB funding approved. Now accepting remote and in-person clients in Toronto at Islington and Bloor! Also offering in-home sessions and canine assisted counselling. I believe in building on the strengths my clients bring to me by improving their lives and removing barriers such as anxiety, depression and emotional conflict. I have family members who have experienced Schizophrenia, Tardive Dyskinesia, Depression and Anxiety. My clients have areas to improve upon and they are seeking better connections with friends, loved ones and family. I believe in personal growth and lifelong learning. Clinical supervision available as well.
I specialize in helping people with anxiety and mental health issues such as depression, bi-polar disorder and other psychiatric conditions. I have lived experience with family members with schizophrenia (my younger brother) and depression (my father) and I offer compassion and understanding. And offer personal experience with divorce and separation.
Please feel free to reach out to me if you would like to improve your life and to help yourself and those you love to connect better. I offer practical advice and offer free 15 minute phone consultations to see if we would be a good fit and to also let you ask any questions you may have. Sessions on a sliding scale are available.
