“Experience my "out of the box" approach by choosing from a menu of traditional therapies and alternate modalities so you can be yourself!”

About Me

If you are seeking a unique path, my 'out of the box' approach offers a welcoming space. We can explore a tailored menu of traditional therapies and alternate modalities. This flexible choice allows us to find the best fit for your personal journey, helping you truly be yourself. Here, you can discover how to genuinely express who you are.

Approach

Picking what feels right, we'll shape sessions that move at your pace, blending practical skills, reflective work and gentle experiments to help you feel grounded and more authentic. In Oshawa and via secure online video in English, appointments stay structured but flexible — short check-ins, deeper exploration, and time to notice small shifts. Between sessions you'll get simple practices to carry change into daily life, and measures to keep you safe when things feel raw. This approach often fits adults, couples and older adults navigating loss, trauma or relationship strain.
