Therapy Services in Hamilton, ON
Specializing in working with couples and individuals in managing communication patterns, attachment wounds, and navigating ADHD, anxiety & trauma.
Offering a warm, supportive space for individual and couples therapy to explore unhelpful cycles, reduce anxiety, strengthen communication, and build safer, more connected relationships. I support individuals and couples who want to navigate life’s challenges, improve emotional regulation, and deepen intimacy.
Couples Counselling
Couples counselling helps you communicate in ways that don’t lead to shutdown, escalation, or defensiveness. It supports rebuilding trust after betrayal or emotional distance, while also restoring emotional and physical intimacy.
Together, we work to identify and shift the negative interaction cycles that keep you feeling stuck. Therapy focuses on strengthening emotional safety, deepening understanding of each other’s needs, and creating new patterns of connection.
Couples therapy can also be especially helpful during life transitions such as parenting, chronic stress, ADHD, or blending families. Along the way, we rebuild friendship, appreciation, and a stronger sense of partnership.
With the right support, relationships can move from simply surviving to feeling secure, connected, and supportive again.
Individual Counselling
Individual counselling can help you better understand how trauma, anxiety, ADHD, and past experiences shape your thoughts, emotions, and relationships. Therapy supports you in improving communication and connection, feeling calmer and less overwhelmed by stress or anxiety, and identifying patterns that contribute to emotional reactivity, avoidance, or shutdown.
Individual counselling can also help you process traumatic experiences at a pace that feels safe, buildself-confidence and healthier boundaries, and develop practical tools for emotional regulation, sleep, focus, and daily life.
You don’t need to have everything figured out, therapy is a place to start exactly where you are.
Approaches & Modalities
My work integrates evidence-based approaches tailored to your goals. Below are some of the primary modalities I draw from in individual and couples therapy.

EMDR is an evidence-based therapy that helps your brain reprocess distressing memories so they feel less overwhelming in the present. It supports the nervous system in integrating experiences that may feel “stuck.”

Helpful for trauma, anxiety, attachment wounds, and experiences that continue to feel triggering or emotionally intense, even when you understand them logically.

Collaborative Approach
I see therapy as a partnership where we work together to understand your experiences, set meaningful goals, and move at a pace that feels safe and manageable. Your voice, insight, and feedback guide the process, while I bring clinical knowledge, structure, and support.
Sessions are offered both virtually and in person, allowing you to choose the option that best fits your needs and schedule. Virtual therapy provides flexible, accessible support from the comfort of your own space, while in-person sessions offer a more traditional, face-to-face experience. Both formats provide the same thoughtful, evidence-based care in a safe and supportive environment.
Change starts with understanding.
Together, we’ll make space for clarity, connection, and new ways forward.
In-person and virtual options
My space is conveniently located within the Hamilton Therapy Collective in Hamilton, Ontario.
