Psychotherapy is the the term used to describe therapy that is based upon psychological principles and research and delivered, primarily, through verbal interaction. Simply put, psychotherapy is 'talk therapy". It is the interaction between you and a highly trained, caring, compassionate therapist who is willing to walk with you through whatever challenges you might be facing. Psychotherapy can happen either in an individual basis, with couples, with families or in larger groups.

In all of the work that I do with clients, there are some primary goals: Promote understanding and eliminate ambiguity. It is only through understanding that we can create comprehensive and meaningful change. I also focus quite heavily on exploring tools and treatment methods with my clients so that they can find their desired change. I incorporate elements of cognitive and behavioural interventions along with a myriad of psychological principles into my psychotherapeutic work.

Psychotherapy is a specialized form of therapy focused on deep, long-term change by exploring the root causes of emotional and psychological issues.

As a dedicated psychotherapist, I offer a transformative approach to explore and address the root causes of your challenges. Please schedule a free consultation with me to see if we are a good fit.
