Individual and family therapy for adolescents, adults and their families as well as psychotherapy and consultation for parents.

 

I am a Registered Social Worker with a private psychotherapy practice. I have locations in both Midtown and West Toronto. For the past 15 years I have worked in children's mental health settings and schools. I specialize in working with youth, young adults and their parents.  I offer individual and family therapy with specializations in family conflict, relationship and interpersonal difficulties, anxiety, social anxiety, depression, feelings of isolation, and the effects of trauma. I also work with adults who have experienced neglect, emotional, physical or sexual abuse during their childhood.

I strive to create a safe space for individuals from diverse backgrounds and recognize that racism, heterosexism, sexism and discrimination based on gender expression greatly impacts mental health and well-being. 

Seeking counselling can be difficult for both parents and their children. Family members may feel shame or even hopelessness about addressing their problems. It is important for you to feel comfortable and understood by the therapist you choose to work with. 

Please browse through my website for more information on my therapeutic approach and my areas of specialization. Please do not hesitate to contact me should you have any questions. I do offer a free 15 minute telephone consultation.
