My approach involves drawing on various modalities (e.g., dialogic, narrative, solution-focused, emotion-focused) that fit the unique needs of clients. I hope to create an environment for clients where they feel a sense of safety to express their reflections, thoughts, and concerns. I take on a non-judgmental, non-expert stance and firmly believe that clients have everything that they need already within them- my role is to simply remind you of who you are or to help you discover who you would like to be through supportive, therapeutic conversations. If you are interested in learning more about my approach and to see if we would be a good fit, please contact me for a free consultation.

As opposed to many of the behaviourally-based (simple fix) treatments available today, psychotherapy involves going deeper. This might include looking at coping skills or patterns you developed as a child which, though they served you well then, may be getting in the way of your life now. Psychotherapy is less about learning tools, and more about developing insights about oneself and one's loved ones. While many therapies today focus on changing behaviour in the here and now, psychotherapy often involves looking at what may underlie emotional or relational patterns, such as having difficulty saying no, or struggling to trust others. It involves being more honest and authentic with oneself.

Whether you feel alone, lost, stressed, scared, overwhelmed, anxious, down, or are facing a difficult time, talk therapy can help. Psychotherapy includes a number of different types of practices, like behavioural focused sessions using CBT, ACT, MBCT or DBT, humanistic or client centred approaches. The specific type of therapy that works for you is something we discuss together, ensuring that you're gaining the most you can from your time in therapy.

My approach does not focus on discussing what may be wrong with you, but rather explore your experiences, your strengths, and collectively search for a balance in your life through psychotherapeutic interventions and psychoeducation.

My goal is for my nonjudgmental and inclusive approach to collaborate with you to best meet your needs and life goals through strength-based narrative, solution-focused, emotion-focused, and cognitive-behavioural modalities.

Psychotherapy has been with humankind since our origins. However, about a century ago, psychologists tried to systematize and formalize psychotherapeutic interventions and, depending on their worldview and perspectives on human nature, they created various approaches that currently exceed 400, which can be confusing and misleading. A successful psychotherapy, regardless of the lenses and title, should acknowledge that every person has a unique mind and, as a result, a unique mental world. The therapist’s job is to help the client explore this world in a supportive environment. Schedule a free 15-minute consultation to see if we are a good fit.

There are many things which cause us distress and prevent us from achieving our preferred quality of life. These can include a variety of feelings, thoughts, beliefs, reactions, confusion, past or present situations, etc. You can more easily think about, and choose, your preferred ways of living, by getting clear about what's going on, how you're being affected, and your usual responses. I delight to help in this kind of process: it can be a way of making things which are invisible, visible; things which are unspoken, clear; even things which were un-thought of, possible.

I primarily use Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT) to support individuals, couples and families to get the supportive relationships they need to be safe, secure and grow in life. EFT is designed to provide opportunities to express vulnerable emotions to loved ones so that one can be clearly understood and valued by the most important people in your life. Even in individual therapy, there are powerful techniques used to safely access unacknowledged (often painful) emotions in connection to oneself and others. EFT is based on our knowledge of the importance of close bonds with others and has over 20 years of research that verifies its success. Call me for a confidential consult.

Psychotherapy is a broader term to describe a number of treatment methods which can be used to help individuals with their mental health. Some of the treatments I utilize are Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Mindfulness-Based (MCBT), Psychodynamic Therapy, Culturally sensitive, Solution Focused Brief (SFBT), Narrative, Strength based, and Trauma Focused. The most common ailments that clients see me for are depression, anxiety, ADHD, trauma, abuse and self-esteem issues. Through my academic training and personal experience, I bring my clients a personal understanding of many of these issues.

As a psychotherapist, my goal is to provide clients with a safe and supportive environment to explore their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Through psychotherapy, clients can gain greater insight into their own personal challenges and develop effective coping mechanisms to address them. One of the key benefits of psychotherapy is that it can help clients to identify and address the underlying causes of their emotional and mental distress. By exploring their past experiences and current challenges, clients can gain a greater understanding of their own unique needs and develop strategies for managing their symptoms.

In addition to finding relief from symptoms such as anxiety and depression, I believe it is also necessary to look at the source of those symptoms. Not doing so would be akin to treating a physical ailment without looking for the cause. It is from this deeper work that lasting change and growth can come. As a depth-oriented psychotherapist, I work with people to gain insight, find meaning in their lives, and find more effective ways of being and relating to others. It is through this process that change, growth, and wholeness result. We all want happier, more fulfilling lives. I will help you work toward your goals.
