I am a Registered Psychologist with a Master of Education in Counselling Psychology. I strive to meet my clients where they are at, and to help them achieve the changes they want.
I believe that when clients feel safe, they have an opportunity to look inward, to free themselves from feeling stuck in the past, and to find new ways to move forward. This may require hard work, but growth and change are possible if clients can increase their awareness and understanding of unhelpful thinking patterns, and learn new skills and behaviours that improve their well-being. In helping clients clarify their personal meaning, I emphasize responsibility and personal choice. This empowers them to choose new paths that are right for them.
Using a collaborative approach, I integrate a variety of Cognitive, Solution-Focused, and Existential techniques to help clients explore and change their current situations. I am also certified in EMDR and Gottman Method (couples therapy). My areas of specialty include anxiety, depression, stress, communication, trauma, and relationship issues.
My life experiences have deepened my compassion for the wide spectrum of challenges that accompany our collective human experience. I am passionate about treating clients holistically, and tailoring treatment to their unique needs. I invite couples and individuals ages 18 and up to work with me to discover their own path to wellness and healing.
