You’re not alone.
Why am I so anxious? So angry? So sad all the time? How will I cope if I can’t conceive? Is it normal to feel this way during pregnancy? How do I move on after a miscarriage? Am I a bad mom? When will I feel like myself again?
If these are questions you’ve been asking yourself lately, please know that it’s OK.
It’s estimated that nearly a quarter of all women, mothers, or primary caregivers in Canada will experience struggles with their mental health in the perinatal period of life. Infertility and family planning, pregnancy loss, infant loss, prenatal or postpartum mood disorders, relationship issues, stress, grief, past trauma, and birth trauma can all pose a threat to our overall sense of wellbeing as we bravely confront this chapter of life.
If you are struggling, let’s talk.

About Me
Hi, my name is Carli, and I’m really happy you’re here.
My approach to therapy is collaborative and inclusive, and is deeply rooted in the practice of self-compassion and creative expression. At the core of my work is the belief that we are not defined by our darkest moments, but rather the ways we choose to overcome them. Through my own experiences, I know two things to be true. First, I know that this work is hard work, and that deep healing is messy, and beautiful, and scary, and liberating all at the same time. Secondly, though the path to wellness is never linear (and growth can sometimes be kind of uncomfortable) it’s always, always worth it in the end.

Virtual Psychotherapy
The COVID-19 pandemic transformed the psychotherapeutic space — for the better. Physical distancing challenged us to adapt to a new-normal, and one of the most amazing things to come of this was the discovery of virtual service delivery. We learned that it is possible to be emotionally present for others, without being physically present with others; a minor shift that created a massive increase in access potential for folks seeking support.
Though the transition to virtual therapy was initiated based on necessity, the decision to continue in this way was lead by a positive response.
With the added benefits of comfort and convenience, virtual therapy has opened doors to supports we might otherwise have never explored due to limitations of time, transportation, careers, and childcare.
