About Gemma
Gemma is not currently accepting new clients
As a mental health therapist, I understand how intimidating it can be to seek out a counsellor. Having navigated this journey myself, I know the importance of finding a therapist who offers a safe, judgment-free space and who utilizes practical tools for moving forward. That's why I prioritize creating a collaborative environment in our sessions, integrating psychoeducation to keep you informed.
I aim for our sessions to not only be productive and rewarding but also comforting and cozy. I have extensive experience working with individuals facing challenges such as ADHD, anxiety, depression, OCD, disordered eating, BPD,body image, self confidence, burnout, relationship issues, and breakups.
I believe that you are the expert on your own life and my role is to provide you with the tools and support to help you reach your goals. My therapeutic approach combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and a person-centered framework when working with clients while also recognizing the importance of an individualized treatment plan. This can be particularly useful for helping with emotional regulation, recognizing unhelpful thinking patterns, finding healthy coping mechanisms, all or nothing thinking, validating beliefs and emotions, and many more.
Outside of counselling, I love spending time with my senior rescue dog, Bianca, diving into a good book or studying as I am currently pursuing more education. I proudly identify as a feminist and an ally to the LGBTQ+ and BIPOC communities, and I’m committed to supporting all individuals on their journey to mental wellness.
