In person therapy in Vaughan | Online therapy across Ontario.

Constantly living in survival mode is taking a toll on you… Growing up feeling unseen, unworthy of love, or invalidated can leave deep emotional scars that impact your sense of self and relationships as an adult. 

You might carry the weight of believing you don’t deserve affection or struggle with feeling invisible in moments that matter most. These feelings can lead to challenges in trusting others, setting boundaries, and fully embracing your own worth. 

I’m here to help you unravel these early experiences, offering a safe space to explore and heal these wounds.
Together, we can work towards rebuilding your self-esteem, finding validation within yourself, and cultivating a more compassionate and fulfilling life.

FAQ

Trauma is the long-lasting response to a distressing event. Childhood trauma can come from various experiences like abuse, bullying, neglect, feelings of helplessness, etc. Signs of unresolved trauma include emotional distress, self-criticism, avoidance, physical symptoms without clear causes, trust issues, and relationship difficulties. If these symptoms are affecting your daily life, it’s important to seek a professional evaluation from a family doctor or a psychiatrist. We can explore your experiences and symptoms together to understand your unique situation and provide the support with or without a formal diagnosis.

The fee for a 50-minute therapy session is $150.

In therapy, I utilize a range of techniques including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), somatic therapy, and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). Each of these approaches offers unique benefits for emotional regulation. I can also combine techniques from multiple types of therapy to create a personalized treatment plan that best meets your needs.
The duration of therapy varies based on individual needs and goals. Some clients may benefit from short-term therapy to address specific issues, while others may engage in longer-term therapy to work on more complex challenges.
