How do I know if therapy is right for me?

If you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or like something just isn't quite right, that's enough of a reason to reach out. You don't need to be in crisis to benefit from therapy. Many people come simply because they want to understand themselves better or make a meaningful change.

What is EMDR and how does it help?

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a research-backed therapy that helps the brain process stuck memories and traumatic experiences. It is especially effective for trauma, anxiety, and patterns that talk therapy alone hasn't been able to shift. Sessions involve guided eye movements or other forms of bilateral stimulation while you briefly focus on a difficult memory, helping your brain process it in a new way.

Do you offer virtual sessions across Ontario?

Yes. I offer secure virtual therapy to clients across Ontario. Virtual sessions are available weekdays, evenings, and Sundays.

Is therapy covered by insurance?

Most extended health benefit plans cover services from a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying). I provide receipts you can submit directly to your provider for reimbursement. I recommend confirming your specific coverage before we begin.

How long does therapy take?

This varies for everyone. Some people find relief and clarity in a short-term course of sessions, while others prefer longer-term ongoing support. We will check in regularly about how things are going and adjust our approach together.

What happens in the free consultation?

The free 15-minute consultation is a no-pressure conversation to talk about what you're navigating and see if we feel like a good fit. There is no obligation to book, and you don't need to have everything figured out before we talk.

Hi, I'm Andie, and I'm so glad you're here.

I've always been drawn to the complexity of people: the stories we carry, the ways we learn to cope, and the quiet strength it takes to begin doing things differently. That curiosity is what led me into this work, and what keeps me grounded in it.

I don't see therapy as fixing something broken. It's a space to understand yourself more deeply, especially the parts that have felt overwhelming or hard to hold alone. Therapy isn't something I do to you, it's something we build together.

You are the expert in your own experience. My role is to walk alongside you with curiosity, warmth, and care, helping you notice patterns, make sense of what's been happening, and gently open space for change at a pace that feels right for you.

As a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), I practice under clinical supervision. Sessions are eligible for reimbursement under most extended health benefit plans in Ontario.

My Approach to Therapy

Therapy isn't about fixing you. It's about understanding your experiences and learning to meet yourself with curiosity and compassion. My approach is warm, collaborative, and deeply client-centred: You are the expert of your own experience, and my role is to walk alongside you as you find your way forward.

I draw from a range of evidence-based approaches, always tailored to you:

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing

EMDR is a research-based approach that helps the brain process traumatic memories and experiences.

Internal Family Systems

IFS explores the different "parts" of you to build understanding, self-trust, and self-compassion from the inside out.

Attachment-Based Therapy

Attachment therapy explores how early relationships shaped the way you connect, trust, and feel safe, and helps you build secure relationships.

Somatic Therapy

Somatic therapy works with the body as well as the mind, since anxiety, trauma, and stress live in your body and nervous system too.

Dialectical Behaviour Therapy

DBT builds practical skills for managing overwhelming emotions, improving relationships, and finding balance between acceptance and change.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy

ACT combines mindfulness with values-based action, so you can move toward what actually matters to you.

Common Questions

In our consultation, we'll talk about what's bringing you to therapy, your goals, and whether my approach feels like a good fit.

Sessions are held virtually via Jane, so you can attend from wherever feels most safe and comfortable.

Most clients start weekly or bi-weekly. We'll figure out a rhythm together based on what you're working on and what feels sustainable for you.

Sessions with a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) are covered by many extended health benefit plans in Ontario, though coverage varies by provider. I'd recommend checking with your insurer for specifics. You'll receive a receipt after each session for reimbursement.

That's exactly what the free consultation is for. You can ask me anything, get a feel for how I work, and decide from there.
