About Blossom Psychotherapy in Etobicoke

---

Clients who find my services effective are typically working on something important in their lives or careers, and they want someone who can track with them compassionately while challenging any unhelpful or limiting perspectives and ideas. Together, in individual therapy, we process trauma, grief, anxiety, depression, stress, anger, relationship struggles, workplace issues and career development. I see individuals and couples, and use a combination of approaches including attachment-based theories, cognitive-behavioural techniques, psychodrama, mindfulness and positive psychology.
Before becoming a psychotherapist, I worked at some of Canada’s largest companies, leading teams focused on employee training and leadership development. Helping people work better (and live better), while navigating the reality of modern workplaces is an enduring passion.
Growing the Blossom, Etobicoke Psychotherapy practice and partnering with other therapists in this work is a distinct pleasure in this phase of my life and career.
