What cannot be spoken,
may return as a symptom

Psychodynamic psychotherapy is an established, evidence-based approach to psychological treatment. Rather than focusing solely on symptom reduction, it explores the unconscious emotional and relational patterns that shape how we think, feel, and relate to ourselves and others.

Through this process, children, adolescents, and adults can develop a deeper understanding of depression, anxiety, trauma, grief and loss, relationship difficulties, emotional burnout, and major life transitions, allowing meaningful and lasting psychological change to emerge.

There is no right place to begin. Simply speak about whatever comes to mind. What appears accidental often proves to be meaningful.

Registered with the College of Psychologists and Behaviour Analysts of Ontario (CPBAO), I provide individual psychodynamic psychotherapy to children, adolescents, and adults in Oakville, Georgetown, and virtually across Ontario.

The Work of Therapy

Discovering what speaks through

symptoms and repeated patterns

Understand Patterns

Recognize recurring ways of relating, coping, and responding that may no longer serve you

Find Meaning

Explore how past experiences continue to shape the present,

often outside awareness.

Create New Paths

Unconscious patterns become conscious, greater freedom and

new ways of relating can emerge.

People often seek psychotherapy when they find themselves:

• Repeating what they wish would change.

• Divided between desire and obligation.
• Living with symptoms that seem to return.
• Struggling to make sense of their suffering.
• Caught in painful relationships.
• Grieving a loss that remains present.
• Facing moments of uncertainty or transition.
• Feeling that something is missing without knowing what.
• Looking beyond symptom relief toward understanding.
