My name is Amy. I am a Registered Psychotherapist supporting adults (21+) across Ontario, Canada.

People come to therapy for many reasons. Sometimes we’re struggling with something that feels difficult to navigate. Sometimes we’re simply looking for space to pause and pay attention—to become curious about ourselves, our experiences, our relationships, and the lives we’re creating. Therapy can offer a place to explore what has shaped us, understand ourselves more fully, and consider what might be possible from here.

This can be especially meaningful during times of change, uncertainty, or transition—including burnout, grief, trauma, shifts in identity, relationships, work, caregiving, or the responsibilities we carry in our personal and professional lives. But therapy doesn’t have to begin with a crisis. Sometimes, the desire to understand ourselves more deeply is reason enough to begin.

My work is also informed by more than three decades of experience leading teams, organizations, and community-based initiatives. That background continues to shape how I understand people within the context of their environments, relationships, responsibilities, and lived realities.

I also work with neurodiverse adults, including those who are Autistic or living with ADHD, as well as individuals navigating disability, chronic illness, women’s health concerns, menopause, and midlife transitions. Whether formally diagnosed, self-identified, late-diagnosed, or still making sense of their experiences, clients are welcomed with curiosity, respect, and an understanding that wellbeing is shaped by both internal experience and the environments in which we live and work.

In 2008, I founded Recreational Respite, a national organization supporting neurodiverse individuals, people with disabilities, and those experiencing mental health challenges. Having led the company’s dynamic growth it has also informed my understanding of access, inclusion, and the systems that support meaningful participation and wellbeing.

My approach is collaborative, strengths-based, and neuro-affirming. Together, we explore what feels heavy, stuck, or out of alignment, and work toward greater clarity, steadiness, and sustainability in how you move through life.

I draw on evidence-based, trauma-informed approaches including EMDR, CPT, IFS, CBT, ACT, EFT, Pain Reprocessing Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Narrative Therapy, mindfulness-based approaches, expressive arts practices and Bibliotherapy, alongside specialized training in women’s health and midlife transitions.

I hold a BA (Hons.) in Disability Studies from Toronto Metropolitan University and an MA (Hons. and Distinction) in Counselling Psychology from Yorkville University. I am a Registered Psychotherapist in independent practice and good standing with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario (CRPO) and a member of the Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Association (CCPA).
