For when you’ve done all the things, checked all the boxes, and still find yourself wondering, is this really what I want?

Welcome, Friend! I’m so happy You’re Here.

I’m Stephanie, a millennial therapist and new mom who helps women navigate the beautiful, messy, and chaotic seasons where it feels like a quarter-life crisis arrived right on cue.
Between balancing a career, managing a household, and navigating the massive identity shifts that come with breakups, career pivots, or motherhood, it's easy to lose yourself in the shuffle.
Maybe you've been questioning who you are outside of diaper changes. Maybe you're drained by the career or relationships that once fueled you. Or maybe you simply feel lost or stuck and know something needs to change.
I've been there. And that’s exactly why I do this work.

Think big sister energy, but with a therapy degree.
My goal is to create a space where you can talk openly without feeling judged. Think of it like talking to your most trustworthy friend—if your friend also happened to have a whole lot of clinical training and a therapy degree.
Because you’re more than what’s happening in your head, we’ll look at the whole you. Think of it as where the woo and the work collide: blending evidence-based therapy with nervous system work, mindfulness, somatic approaches, and practical tools you'll actually use in your real life.
And it all starts with a virtual coffee. We’ll chat about what’s going on, where you want to go, and figure out your next best step—together.
Therapy that meets you where you are. Literally.
I exclusively offer virtual sessions, so you can get the support you need from wherever you feel most comfortable. All you need is a stable internet connection, a device with a camera, and a private space to talk.
No commute. More flexibility. Your own space.
Get the support you need from wherever you feel most comfortable—without adding another place you need to be.


Explore who you are in this new season of life and what motherhood on your terms can look like.

Explore the second-guessing, expectations, and patterns keeping you stuck, and get clearer on what you actually want.

Understand how your brain works and explore strategies that better fit your needs, strengths, and everyday life.

Make sense of who you’re becoming and explore what you want this next version of your life to look like.

My current rates reflect my Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) status and may change periodically as my practice grows.
It depends on your extended health benefits plan. Many plans cover psychotherapy or services provided by a Registered Psychotherapist, but coverage varies by provider.
While I don't offer direct billing, I'll provide a receipt after each session that you can submit for reimbursement.
I recommend checking with your insurance provider before booking to confirm whether services provided by a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) are covered under your plan.
I provide virtual therapy for adults living in:
Ontario
British Columbia
Alberta
Manitoba
Saskatchewan
My practice is 100% virtual, allowing you to attend sessions from the comfort of your own home.
If we start working together and you decide virtual therapy isn't the right fit, I'm happy to help you find an in-person therapist in your area. No hard feelings.
Not at all! While much of my work and website speaks directly to millennial women, I welcome clients of all genders and identities. Many of my current and past clients have been men, and my practice is LGBTQIA+ affirming. If you connect with my approach and think we might be a good fit, you’re absolutely welcome here.
At this time, I work exclusively with adults (18+) in individual therapy.
I believe therapy should feel like a real conversation—not a clinical checklist.
My approach is warm, collaborative, and tailored to you. Some sessions might involve exploring your past, while others focus on practical tools, nervous system regulation, or working through what's happening in your life right now.
I'm also human. I show up authentically, speak candidly, and, when it's genuinely helpful, may thoughtfully share parts of my own experience to support your growth.
I take an integrative, evidence-based approach, drawing from a range of therapeutic modalities rather than relying on a single framework.
Every person is different. Some people benefit from practical strategies and structure, while others need space to process, reflect, and gain insight. Most need a combination of both, and together we'll find the approach that works best for you.
The therapeutic relationship is one of the strongest predictors of positive outcomes. That's why I offer a free introductory call—to answer your questions, learn more about what you're looking for, and help us both decide whether working together feels like the right fit. It should feel like a conversation, not a commitment.
