I Still Have More Therapy Questions

Common Therapy Questions Answered

We start with situations that keep replaying after the day ends. We slow them down and look at what you believed you were responsible for in that moment. Then we sort out what truly belonged to you and what did not.

Some sessions are reflective, others practical. The goal is steadiness and clear judgment, not endless processing. If tools between sessions help, we use them. If not, we don’t.

Registered Psychotherapists are bound by strict confidentiality laws and regulations as outlined by the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario. All of your personal health information is kept strictly confidential in a secure platform through “Jane”. There are, however, some exceptions that apply when it comes to harm, suicidal ideation and the care of minors. Your intake and consent form will cover these details.

Initial 20-min consultations are free. A regular 55-minute session is $160. You can book here

I work with individuals who are struggling with burnout, compassion fatigue, grief and other identity struggles. I have learned so much from my time in various health care settings – in the complex work of supporting people through crisis. It’s often those moments of struggle when our eyes are open to the reality that we need professional help. And this is where the change is ready to take place and therapy questions answered.

When something painful is brought into the light with care, it can start to become new. Therapy is about noticing what has been buried, naming what is true, and learning to move forward from that place. Much of our suffering comes from silence and lack of support. In our work together, you are invited to speak what has been unnamed and find clarity. Your values, your pain, your hopes and your limits.

Each of these offers support, but they serve different purposes.

Therapy is a regulated health profession. It’s focused on emotional, psychological, or relational struggles that may be affecting your ability to function or feel like yourself. Therapy often looks at your history such as grief, trauma, identity, burnout, and helps you heal at the roots.

Coaching is more focused on the present and future. It’s practical, action-oriented, and doesn’t involve diagnosing or treating mental health conditions. Coaching is great for people who feel relatively steady but want clarity, direction, or support while navigating change, work, or purpose.

I provide online psychotherapy for people dealing with caregiving burnout, grief, identity shifts, spiritual questions, and significant life changes. Many clients bring both everyday challenges and deeper reflections about meaning and purpose. Using methods like Narrative Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and Trauma-Focused CBT (TF-CBT), I work with you in a practical, personalized way that respects where you are right now and what you want to achieve.

Yes, I am a Registered Psychotherapist (RP) licensed with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario. I am also certified by the Canadian Association of Spiritual Care. These credentials ensure that I meet professional standards for providing ethical, confidential, and effective online therapy in Ontario specifically, and across Canada.

I recently relocated from Ontario (my hometown is Kitchener-Waterloo, Ontario) to Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan! The prairies are beautiful and peaceful. I currently provide therapy entirely online so I can serve both places. If you live anywhere else, you will be considered a coaching client.

Depending on your needs and goals, you may need therapy weekly or monthly. We will discuss this in the 20-minute consultation so no surprises are moving forward. Generally, the first 6 weeks are establishing your baseline, and weeks 7-12 are where you begin to notice real change.

Starting therapy is flexible and at your pace. Here’s the process: .

2. Schedule Your First Full Session.
Once you decide to move forward, I’ll send a confirmation email with intake forms to complete securely through the Jane app before our session.

3. Meet Online
All sessions take place via secure video. Our first session is a gently guided conversation, no pressure, no rush.

4. Arrange for Payment
Payment is collected after each session through the telehealth portal making it simple and convenient.

I don’t bill directly to insurance, but many clients are able to submit receipts to their provider for reimbursement. Please check your specific insurance plan to see if psychotherapy or professional counselling is covered.

What The Consult is For

Your free 20 minute consult is to clarify three things:

1. What kind of depletion this is
2. Whether therapy would actually help
3. Whether I am the right fit for your situation

There is no expectation to continue, If another type of support fits better, I will say so.

You can take time to think afterward. No decision needed on the call.
