As a registered psychotherapist and founder of Existence Therapy Clinic, I have extensive experience working with clients on nervous system regulation to enhance emotional processing, self-esteem, body image, identity, sexuality, sex therapy, relationships, attachment, and trauma.
Through my work, I’ve recognized the vital importance of mind-body-social healing and identified a gap between mental health services and accessible support. I am dedicated to increasing accessibility to mental health resources and empowering individuals through both personal and community healing to promote lasting change.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Partner Support Therapy?
Partner support therapy focuses on helping individuals or couples navigate the emotional complexities of supporting a partner through difficult times. It provides tools to improve communication, manage emotional fatigue, and strengthen the relationship.
Do both partners need to attend sessions?
Not necessarily. While joint sessions can be helpful, individual therapy can also be valuable if you’re looking to better understand your role, set boundaries, and support your partner in a healthy way.
How long will therapy last?
The frequency of your appointments will be discussed and determined during your initial therapy sessions, based on your unique needs. Typically, after six to eight sessions, you and your therapist will review your progress. Treatment goals will be assessed periodically and adjusted as necessary. It’s important to remember that you have full control over the therapy process. You are always free to discontinue treatment at any time, regardless of your therapist’s perspective. However, we encourage you to have a conversation with your therapist before making the decision to end therapy. Keep in mind, each therapy experience is individual, and outcomes can vary from person to person.
What will happen in the first session?
The first session, or “consultation,” is all about getting to know you and understanding what you’re going through. We’ll take the time to talk about your personal challenges and your situation, so we can create a treatment plan that feels right for you. You’ll be asked some questions, and we’ll explore different aspects of your concerns together. Sometimes, this may include psychological assessments or reaching out to others, like your doctor or family (but only with your permission). Once we have a clear picture, your therapist will share some treatment options with you, and together, you’ll decide on a plan that feels comfortable and helpful for you.
Are Psychological Services Covered by OHIP?
Psychotherapy services are not covered by OHIP. However, many extended health insurance plans provide partial coverage for psychotherapy services. The coverage details, including reimbursement rates, may vary depending on your insurer and plan. We recommend contacting your insurance provider directly to confirm your coverage details and claim process. Payment for services is due at the end of each session. A detailed receipt will be provided, which you can submit to your insurance company for reimbursement or use for tax purposes.
How do I book an appointment?
To schedule a treatment at Existence Therapy Center, you can email us at [email protected] or conveniently book an appointment online by clicking “Book a Consultation.” Once your appointment is scheduled, one of our therapists will conduct a comprehensive intake interview to assess your need for psychological treatment. We don’t have long wait times to get in with a therapist.

How does conflict resolution therapy improve relationships?
