About Me

Welcome to Crossing Rivers Psychotherapy!

Welcome to Crossing Rivers Psychotherapy, dedicated to supporting you through all of life’s stages and seasons, whether you’re on an unexpected journey of upheaval and change, have come out the other side of it, or simply need to re-orient and reflect.  I provide virtual psychotherapy to residents of Ontario, which means you get to connect with me from the comfort of your own surroundings, regardless of where you live in this big province of ours. 

I’m a Registered Social Worker, with over ten years of advocacy and mental health work within education, child welfare, probation and detention,  and healthcare. My MA (in Interdisciplinary Humanities) explored trauma narratives, while my undergraduate and graduate Social Work degrees focused on community-based mental health. I work primarily from trauma, embodied and attachment-focused frameworks, and am trained in a variety of evidence-based therapeutic interventions including  Mindfulness-based Stress Reduction, EMDR, CBT and DBT. I meet regularly with peers to consult on cases, and set annual learning and professional development goals. My most recent trainings have been related to marriage and relationships (Gottman Levels 1 &2) and grief. 

Please explore the other sections of this website, where I describe my approach and what being in a session with me might entail. A safe and trusting connection with your therapist is perhaps one of the best predictors of how effective and meaningful you may find therapy, which is after all, a deeply personal and sensitive experience. I really encourage you to take the time to consider what you’re looking for in a therapist –  if you’d like to know more or wish to book a session, I’d be delighted to hear from you. Please connect with me via the information on my Contact page.
