What can I expect in the first session?

Your first session is about getting to know you and what brought you here. We’ll talk about your goals, what’s been most challenging, and what you’d like to change. It’s also a chance for you to ask questions and see if therapy feels like a good fit.

Do you offer online therapy?

Yes. I offer both in-person sessions in Midtown Toronto and secure online sessions for anyone living in Ontario.

What issues do you work with?

I support women and couples navigating anxiety, stress, burnout, perfectionism, people-pleasing, women’s mental health challenges, and relationship struggles.

How much does therapy cost?

My standard fee is [insert fee here]. Many extended health benefits cover therapy with a registered psychotherapist. I encourage you to check with your insurance provider.

What if I’ve never done therapy before?

That’s completely okay. Many of my clients are new to therapy. My role is to create a safe, supportive space where we go at your pace — no pressure, no judgment.
