Mind-Body Therapy
Psychotherapy that integrates body awareness to support emotional healing
Mind-body therapy combines evidence-based psychotherapy with body-focused techniques to help regulate the nervous system and process emotional stress. This approach supports clients experiencing anxiety, trauma, burnout, and chronic emotional tension by addressing both mental and physical patterns.
Session Fee: $170.00

What is Mind-Body Therapy?
Sessions focus on increasing awareness of physical sensations, reducing chronic tension and helping clients process emotions that are difficult to access through talk therapy alone. By working with both mental and physical responses, mind-body therapy supports deep emotional insight and long-term change.
Mind-body therapy integrates trauma-informed psychotherapy with somatic and nervous system-based techniques. Modalities used may include EMDR, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Ego states, Deep Brain Reorienting (DBR), and somatic awareness practices to support emotional processing and regulation.
Mind-body therapy may help with:
Reducing stress and anxiety
Releasing emotional blockages
Improving emotional regulation
Releasing chronic tension in the body
Increasing mental clarity and focus
Strengthening the mind-body connection
Promoting deep relaxation and nervous system balance
Why work with me?
I offer a grounded, relational approach to therapy that balances structure with flexibility. Sessions are collaborative and paced to your nervous system, allowing space for both emotional insight and real-life application.
My style is supportive and direct, helping clients build awareness, develop practical regulation skills, and move through emotional patterns that feel stuck or overwhelmed.
This approach is well-suited for individuals who want more than talk therapy alone and are looking for a therapy process that includes both emotional understanding and felt experience in the body. Many clients come to this work after traditional therapy has helped intellectually but not fully resolved stress or trauma responses.
If you are seeking therapy that is thoughtful, integrative, and focused on long-term change rather than quick fixes, this work may be a good fit.
Sessions are available online and in-person in Newmarket.

ife can be challenging, and sometimes we all need a little extra support. As a psychotherapist, I offer a safe, non-judgmental space where you can explore what’s going on in your life, understand yourself more deeply, and start creating meaningful change.
Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, anxious, stuck, or navigating a big life transition, I’m here to help you work through it — at your pace. Together, we’ll look at the patterns, emotions, and thoughts that might be holding you back and build tools to help you feel more grounded, clear, and confident.
You don’t have to wait for a crisis to start therapy. Many of my clients come in simply wanting to feel better, grow personally, or improve their relationships.
-
Yes! I offer online therapy through a secure, confidential video platform. It’s a convenient option that lets you connect from the comfort of your own space — whether at home, at work, or on the go.
Online sessions are available to clients physically located in Ontario, where I am registered and licensed to practice.
If you live in another province or territory in Canada, I may be able to work with you if you’re located in an area where psychotherapy is not currently regulated. These include:
British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Newfoundland and Labrador, Yukon, Northwest Territories, and Nunavut.
If you're unsure whether you're eligible for therapy with me based on your location, feel free to reach out — I'm happy to help you check!

Most individual therapy sessions are 50 minutes long, giving us focused time to explore what’s going on and work on your goals at a steady, comfortable pace.
The initial session is a 90-minute intake, which gives us extra time to get to know each other, go over your history, and start building a plan that’s right for you.
That said, sometimes sessions naturally run a bit over — especially if something important is coming up or we’re in the middle of a meaningful breakthrough. I try to leave space for that when possible, so we’re not cutting something valuable short.
-
Yes — many extended health benefits plans in Canada cover sessions with a Registered Psychotherapist (RP), and I’m also covered under plans that include services provided by a Psychologist.
Coverage can vary depending on your specific plan, so it’s a good idea to check directly with your insurance provider. You can ask if your plan covers:
A Registered Psychotherapist in Ontario
Services billed under a supervising Psychologist
I’ll provide detailed receipts after each session that you can use to submit for reimbursement if your plan includes either.
If you're not sure what to ask, I’m happy to help guide you through checking your benefits.

The first session is a 90-minute intake, where we’ll take time to get to know each other, talk about what brought you to therapy, and explore what you'd like to get out of our work together.
I’ll ask some questions about your background, current concerns, and any past experiences with therapy or mental health — but there’s no pressure to share anything you’re not ready for. This session is really about setting the foundation and making sure you feel safe, heard, and supported.
We’ll also begin to identify your goals for therapy — whether that’s improving your mood, navigating a life change, understanding yourself more deeply, or something else entirely. These goals will help guide our work and give us a sense of direction.
By the end of the session, we’ll talk about next steps and shape a plan that feels right for you.
