Being able to feel safe, comfortable, and connected to your therapist is crucial for the therapeutic process.

Welcome!
I am happy you made it here. I would love the opportunity to assist you in reaching your therapy goals. Being able to connect human to human, leading with compassion, and kindness is the best place to start. I help clients heal and find safety from within again. I offer a safe virtual and in person space to connect, promote strengths, and assist in whatever your goals for therapy may be. Being able to feel safe, comfortable, and connected to your therapist is crucial. I welcome client feedback to help ensure I am meeting you where you need. You are the expert and keeper of your progress and change, I am there to guide you through.

My life experiences and passions are evident in my practice of psychotherapy.I have been working with people for over 15 years in therapeutic settings,  child welfare, and community non-profits for peoples with intellectual disabilities. I continue to expand my knowledge by continuing my education and trainings to ensure I am helping you by using current evidenced based practices. I founded Healing Waves Psychotherapy in June 2022 in Cornwall Ontario and continue to grow and expand services. Im compassionate about people’s navigation through life’s surprises and hardships and want to ensure you do not feel alone in your journey to wellness.

The therapy techniques I use are tailored to your needs, and include the use of cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), narrative therapy, Gottman, PACT, DBT informed and trauma informed therapy. I am flexible in my approach to ensure I am meeting you where you are at and where you ready to explore and change. I encourage ongoing feedback from you to help maintain the therapeutic relationship. No problem is ever too big or too small for me to help you carry.

I also offer a free 15 minute phone consult to ensure we are a good fit before getting started. You can ask any questions you may have and I provide information on what you can expect from the first session and getting started.

Remember reaching out for help is the hardest step! It is okay to feel overwhelmed by this process, but do not let that stop you from taking the first step!
