Find a Therapist in Cardston, Alberta.

The psychotherapy that I provide helps my clients 're-engage' with life again; it challenges their negative self-defeating thinking; and learn new problem solving and communication skills. Because each client is unique and each client has different issues, I blend a number of psychotherapies, such as: Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Clinical Hypnosis, Solution Focused Therapy (SFT) Gestalt, Mindfullness, and Narrative Therapy. In addition, I use Gottman's Couples Therapy for relationship issues.

Want to build new ideas, clarify difficulties with emotions, motives, and interactions with others that lead to confusion? Rebuilding confidence and trust in yourself is crucial for change to be achieved. Our lives and our pathways are not written in stone. When we tell our stories in ways that can make us stronger, we can discover - we are not the problem - the problem is the problem. When we separate ourselves from the problem we can begin to revise our relationships with problems and gain new insight into different ways we can live our lives. I can help you rewrite what you tell about yourself and discover new ways to reclaim your past and re-envision your future.

My approach to counselling is threefold. Aspect # 1 ... my office needs to be a place of safety where clients are free to process their issues free of Judgment, Force, Expectations, or Filters being placed upon them. Aspect # 2 ... I never tell people what to do. Instead, I will “come alongside” as a fellow human being to listen, rephrase, suggest and challenge. Aspect # 3 ... Behaviors and Feelings stem from Core Beliefs. These Core beliefs (either healthy or unhealthy, need to be explored, processed and at times challenged. Counselling for Healthy beliefs is about boundary setting. Counselling for unhealthy beliefs is about challenging them.

My approach is to work collaboratively with clients using a holistic model of therapy which entails a blending of Eastern and Western modalities. For example, training in meditation, yoga, Tai Chi, proper exercise, a nutritious, science-based diet and maintaining proper sleep hygiene. Also, including talk therapy can then help to reveal core values and issues. Mindfulness training benefits clients in observing clearly thoughts and behaviours. Clients benefit greatly through the use of evidence based interventions by developing the skills needed to evaluate thought patterns and overcome destructive patterns.

James Hillman once said, "We've had a hundred years of psychotherapy and the world is getting worse." While there are many occasions where the validation and listening endemic to psychotherapy makes sense, there are times where we over assume that "feeling better" and "changing behavior" are the same. Grey Matters International, Inc. goes after the forgotten brain laws to behavior change that therapists miss when processing hours and hours of dialogues with people. Utilizing a cutting edge technology to facilitate the emotional process of change, we can make the therapy process way more effective, faster, and with less money spent.

Often we know what we need to do differently, it's not that we don't have the wisdom, it's that it can be hard to apply! Doing Psychotherapy with me is a gentle and compassionate process of uncovering and tending to the old wounds and patterns that can be steering our behaviour and leading us astray. This frees up the space to live in the present with mindfulness, and create the future that we dream of!
