    While everyone is different and the answer depends on what needs you bring to therapy, we will not keep you in therapy for longer that you need.

    Therapy is a space for you to receive care that is focused on improving your mental health and wellbeing. You are free to share as much or as little as you are comfortable. I specialize in relationships, and use Emotionally Focused Therapy to help my clients. I help clients explore their inner world and go beneath the feelings of frustration, anger or emptiness. When we look beyond these reactive and protective feelings, we learn to navigate our lives and relationships in new and freeing ways.

  • Where is your office located?

    My comfortable therapeutic space is located in the heart of Port Credit with free parking available nearby. It is a short walk from the Port Credit train station.

  • Will our problems come back when we end therapy?

    The research is clear that progress continues well beyond the conclusion of sessions. It is thought that this is because Emotionally Focused Therapy addresses the root causes of relational problems rather than the surface-level symptoms. 

  • One of us isn’t ‘emotional’, is EFT appropriate for us?

    Yes! I will meet you where YOU are. Our behaviours are driven by our emotions, and sometimes our strategies for dealing with stressors in the relationship are to pull away, shut down, or not feel. These are all legitimate ways of coping, my role is to help you put words to these ways of coping that draw your partner close.
