In my practice I work with members of the community and first responders who have experienced traumatic events. This involves work with active-duty members of the Canadian Forces, members of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, firefighters, medical personnel and others who are directly or vicariously impacted by traumatic events. I also routinely work with members of the community who have endured traumatic events of different kinds. I invite you to watch my TedX talk from 2011 in which I discuss Trauma, Change and Resilience for an introduction to how I think about trauma and its impact.

My practices evolved over time, but always followed through the line of trauma. I work with kids as young as four up until whatever age they want to continue therapy. I am fortunate enough to have a very formative experience in EMDR, IFS, IFIO, and Clinical Hypnosis to address the needs of my clients. As a psychologist, I believe that to have good mental health, the individual must be treated as the whole person. So, I integrate the mind and body into my practice to help my clients to overcome depression, anxiety, grief, stress, mood disorders, and PTSD. I also proudly offer NeurOptimal Neurofeedback for brain training.

We all need support and we should never feel like we are alone through our life journey. I encourage people to use what they might believe as negativity and transform it into positivity. It is when we feel most down and vulnerable that opportunities can present themselves. Through 23 years of business consulting and working through a broad range of challenges I leverage these experiences and provide the guidance needed to build new paths forward. I use a personalized, customized therapeutic approach, because we are all unique and need very specific formulas for navigating through life.

Do you feel like life is demanding more than what you can handle? Do you feel like you’re going through the motions without feeling like an active participant in your own life? Do you struggle with lack of motivation in one or more areas in your life? Trying to prioritize your health while also caring for others can leave you feeling disconnected, anxious and depressed.

You’re exhausted, trying to balance multiple responsibilities – work, relationship, family, social life, self-care, health– and running from a deep sense of "not enough" or unworthiness. You have a mind that rarely quiets, always planning, worrying, with insecure thoughts, or fear of letting others down. On the outside, you’re managing fine, but behind the mask that you put on for others, you’re struggling. Relaxing and feeling at peace seems wildly out of reach. Alternatively, you may be feeling disconnected or fighting more in your relationship. The busyness of life has taken over and it's been hard to make each other a priority.

Getting to the point where you feel like you need therapy can feel awful. You have probably tried many ways of getting better and they haven't worked for you or not well enough. Are you tired of feeling overwhelmed, confused, powerless and disconnected from yourself and others? You don't need to feel like you aren't good enough. You don't need to feel stuck in anger, sadness, fear or disgust. You don't need to feel like your past is heavy and weighing you down in the present. You can process your past so you can live in the present moment. You can feel good about yourself and connect to others. You deserve joy now and in the future.

I think everyone should have a therapist. I realize how self-serving that sounds, but if we see a medical doctor on a regular basis (yes, you should do that too!) for our physical health, why wouldn’t we have someone in our pocket for mental health as well? If there is a stigma around mental health, there is stigma of having a therapist as well. I regularly meet with people that have never accessed a mental health professional and after one session you can see the anxiety leave them as I help take away those social pressures and instead focus on you, that’s what I want, to be team YOU!
