I specialize in helping individuals zoom out to see the true source of their stuckness and inability to attain goals. This 'not so obvious' barrier can manifest in many areas of your life; relationships, career goals, or attaining a healthy relationship with food. Life is certainly not all about being happy all of the time, but you should be waking up feeling an incredible sense of gratitude and contentment for the type of life you live now, but also feeling excited about what is yet to come. In simple terms, I coach individuals to go from good to great and have a special love for working with business owners and entrepreneurs.

If you come to see me, you will probably laugh sometimes. That might surprise some people who think of therapy as something serious. I think of therapy as something that's very human. Sure, we will probably talk about upsetting things - that's why you're going, after all, because something is distressing and not working. But sometimes finding the humour in our situations is part of what needs to happen. Laughter, tears, "Ah ha!" moments - they're all there and important.

You're passionate about personal growth, willing to "do the work" and maybe you've even been to therapy before… but you need support. Maybe you're looking for support with saying what you mean, trying to decrease the inner critic and perfectionism, and not people-pleasing anymore. Or, maybe you need support leaving a toxic job or relationship, or setting boundaries with the people in your life or struggle with focusing and completing a task. I am here to help.

Is online therapy as effective as in-person?
Numerous studies suggest that online therapy can be as effective as in-person therapy. However, further research is needed to determine if online therapy provides the same benefits across all client populations. Individuals with severe mental illnesses, such as schizophrenia or bipolar disorder, or those who may benefit from in-person check-ins, like those with eating disorders, may not experience the same level of benefit from online therapy. Nonetheless, the success of online therapy, much like in-person therapy, often hinges on the quality of the therapeutic relationship between the therapist and the client rather than the specific modality of therapy used.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of therapy conducted online?
One of the main advantages of online therapy is its convenience for both clients and therapists. It also allows clients who require specialised therapy to access a wider range of professionals than they could with only in-person sessions. Additionally, online therapy may be a more affordable option in some cases and often offers the same insurance benefits as in-person therapy. However, online therapy may not be suitable for everyone, especially those who value face-to-face interaction with a therapist. Therapists may find it more challenging to assess clients accurately in an online setting due to reduced nonverbal cues on camera. There is also the increased risk that disruptions caused by external factors, such as technology malfunctions, can hinder the therapy session. For these reasons, many therapists offer a "hybrid" therapeutic approach, alternating between seeing clients in-person and online.
Is online therapy suitable for children and adolescents?
Just like with adults, the accessibility and convenience of online therapy can greatly benefit children and adolescents. In fact, children and adolescents may be more accustomed to navigating online platforms than older adults, making online sessions feel more natural for them. Teens might also be interested in using additional online tools, such as therapist-recommended apps, as an adjunct to online therapy sessions. Apps for developing CBT skills, practicing mindfulness exercises, or tracking thoughts and moods can be helpful for teens receiving therapy. However, it's important to note that not all therapeutic modalities are well-suited to online therapy, especially those used with younger children. For example, play therapy, which helps younger children express their emotions, often requires in-person sessions to be fully effective.
Can I receive prescriptions and medication management with online therapy?
The ability for psychiatrists to prescribe medications through online therapy varies based on the medication and the states where the medical professional and client are located. While many prescribing regulations were relaxed during the COVID-19 pandemic, some states still enforce rules, especially concerning controlled substances, which may mandate an in-person visit before prescribing. Generally, however, medical professionals can prescribe non-controlled substances through online therapy sessions just as they do during in-person sessions.
