Step Out of the Shadows of Anxiety, OCD, and Self-Doubt.

Inviting you on a heart-led, holistic path to healing…

…and coming home to yourself.

Hello and Welcome!

Navigating anxiety, OCD, or self-doubt can feel relentless, keeping you stuck in cycles of perfecting, proving, and pleasing.

These protective patterns once kept you safe.

But they can also steal your peace, your power, and your sense of self.

Yet these patterns aren’t your fault—they’re the ways you’ve tried to stay safe in a world that feels overwhelming, and somewhere beneath it all, you sense a quiet longing - to feel calm, grounded, and true to yourself.

Hello, I’m Michele, a Nurse who became a therapist after walking through my own healing journey.

I learned that true healing isn’t just about positive thinking or mindset shifts.

You don’t need to push harder. You need a way back to yourself.

This is where meaningful and lasting transformation begins.

Together, we’ll work not just with the mind, but with the body, emotions, and the nervous system, where anxiety lives and healing happens.

I offer a compassionate, integrative approach that blends traditional and holistic therapies, gently guiding the process from the inside out.

It’s time to let go of the endless pressure to prove yourself and step instead into the lightness and strength of who you really are:

The one who breathes easily, listens to her own voice, trusts herself - and her body’s wisdom, knows her worth, and finally counts herself too!

This is a journey of coming home to your power - to yourself.

Transformative and Heart-Led Healing with a Nurse Psychotherapist

Underneath the weight of perfectionism, people-pleasing, and compulsion lies the part of you that’s always been there—whole, wise, and worthy. The you that once felt clear and confident, before the world taught you it wasn’t safe to be fully yourself.

Now we must quiet the noise of the nervous system alarm so you can quiet the chatter of your mind, learn to listen to the steady voice of your body and emotions, and learn to trust yourself again - in essence, returning to your power, to you before protective, survival patterns took hold.

It’s not a quick fix—rather a gentle, courageous journey back to your truth.

As a Nurse Psychotherapist and Certified Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) Practitioner, I offer online video counselling to support you wherever you are in Ontario, including Trenton, Quinte West, the Bay of Quinte, Brighton, Cobourg, Belleville, Kingston, Ottawa, Toronto, and beyond.

How I Support Your Journey

 

Embodied Approaches for Lasting Change

With a compassionate, somatic, and trauma-informed approach, I use Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) and other supportive modalities, to calm the nervous system alarm and release stored emotions as we gently unwind the root causes of your anxiety, OCD and self-doubt.

Healing at the Root, Not Just the Surface

Our work goes beyond symptom management. We focus beneath the surface to gently clear protective patterns that are just not you – you are not your anxiety, OCD, or self-doubt. You deserve to uncover the real you again – and learn to listen to, and trust, it.

Emotional Safety Comes First

This is a space where all parts of you are welcome.
There’s no pressure to be “fixed” or rush the process.
We’ll begin right where you are.

A Safe, Compassionate Presence

I’m not just a therapist—I’m someone who’s walked this road too.
I will meet you with genuine empathy, non-judgement, and care.
