Individual Therapy
“The best predictor of your current mental health is your current ‘relational health’, or connectedness.”
— Dr. Bruce D. Perry
Our relationships can be a source of joy, but they can also be a source of utter confusion, sadness, and pain. Given how we’re wired for connection, it’s no wonder relationships are so impactful to our mental wellbeing.
Whether with a romantic partner, friend, family member, or even ourselves, relationships are paramount to our sense of safety. When something goes awry in an important relationship, the brain processes it as a threat, and our behaviours and thinking change and align with that feeling of danger.
Do any of these sound familiar?
You find yourself falling into the same patterns over and over again
Your mind is exhausted working overtime trying to make a decision
You don’t know how to make sense of what’s happened
You’re tired of having the same arguments
You’re curious about how your past is influencing your behaviour right now
You want to heal but aren’t sure where to even begin
You fear repeating the mistakes of your parents
If any of those resonated with you, you’re in the right place. Individual sessions offer a space to explore you: to gain clarity, find alignment, rediscover who you are, explore your past, reflect on your decisions, push your boundaries, and question and challenge your sense of comfort.

What should I expect in the first session? The initial session is for us to get to know each other and for me to learn, in more depth, what you hope to gain from therapy.
How many sessions will I need? This depends on the issue bringing you to therapy. Following our first session, I will suggest an approximate length and frequency of sessions based on your goals.
Can you offer a discount? I offer sliding scale therapy to offer therapy to those with a limited income. I reserve a limited number of spots in my schedule to offer reduced fee sessions. When possible, I will work with you to find a way for therapy to be financially sustainable. Please contact me to discuss.
