Slow down. Regulate. Reconnect.

Psychotherapy based in Bracebridge, ON — helping you reconnect with yourself in a way that feels real.

Therapy is a powerful tool which can help you develop a stronger sense of self and facilitate positive lasting change.

Hi! I’m Alex. People often come to me because they are ready to do deeper work. I tend to work from the bottom up, getting into the deeper layers of your experience: your nervous system, your patterns, and the roots of how you relate to yourself. A lot of my work naturally centres around trauma, anxiety & mood issues —especially when those things are tied to identity, relationships, and the way you experience yourself day to day.

I have a particular interest in maternal wellness and the complexities of motherhood, supporting women through the changes in identity, relationships, and sense of self that can come with this phase of life.

Together, we’ll look at how you relate to yourself, the patterns that keep showing up, and where they come from. From there, we start creating change that actually sticks.
