My Approach to Therapy
Welcome! I'm Daniela, a Canadian Certified Counsellor working with individuals, couples, and adolescents. We are often left to navigate the complexities of life and relationships largely on our own. You don't have to be in crisis to benefit — if you have a worry, you have a reason to reach out.
My work is primarily informed by Narrative Therapy, alongside attachment-based approaches, Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). I also believe the body belongs in conversations about mental health, just as much as our relationships, culture, and the communities we live within.
Perinatal mental health is an area especially close to my heart, and I support people from the early stages of family planning through pregnancy, postpartum, and well beyond the first year of a child's life. As you move between providers — often many of them — care can begin to feel fragmented. Therapy can offer continuity through a space where the biological, emotional, and relational realities of this transition are already understood, and where there is time to make sense of how they intersect. Together, we can connect you with additional care when needed and make space for your own wellbeing as you navigate changing relationships, parenting decisions, and an expanded sense of self. Therapy can be one place where the question remains: how are you doing?
"Have patience with everything unresolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves…"
— Rainer Maria RilkeUna Nota de Daniela
¡Bienvenidos! Soy Daniela, Canadian Certified Counsellor, y trabajo con adultos, parejas y adolescentes. A menudo nos toca navegar las complejidades de la vida y de nuestras relaciones en gran medida por nuestra cuenta. No tienes que estar en crisis para beneficiarte — si hay algo que te preocupa, tienes una razón para buscar apoyo.
Mi trabajo se basa principalmente en la Terapia Narrativa, junto con perspectivas basadas en el apego, la Terapia Centrada en la Compasión (CFT) y la Terapia de Aceptación y Compromiso (ACT). También creo que el cuerpo forma parte de las conversaciones sobre la salud mental, al igual que nuestras relaciones, nuestra cultura y las comunidades de las que formamos parte.
La salud mental perinatal ocupa un lugar especial en mi trabajo, y acompaño a las personas desde las primeras etapas de la planificación familiar, durante el embarazo y el posparto, y mucho más allá del primer año de vida de su bebé. Al pasar por distintos profesionales, a menudo muchos, la atención puede empezar a sentirse fragmentada. La terapia puede ofrecer continuidad y un espacio donde las realidades biológicas, emocionales y relacionales de esta transición ya son comprendidas, y donde hay tiempo para explorar cómo se entrelazan. Juntos, podemos identificar otros apoyos profesionales cuando sean necesarios y hacer espacio para tu propio bienestar mientras navegas cambios en tus relaciones, decisiones sobre la crianza y un sentido más amplio de ti misma. La terapia puede ser uno de esos lugares donde la pregunta sigue siendo: ¿cómo estás tú?
"Caminante, no hay camino, se hace camino al andar."
