I'm a Registered Psychologist and have worked in a variety of settings providing clinical, community and school based therapeutic services for over 15 years. I work from a client-centered approach and believe that for change to occur there must be a genuine, non-judgemental relationship between the client and the therapist. I work collaboratively with my clients to help them gain greater awareness, insight and to ultimately create balance within their lives. I seek to empower my clients so they can build upon their own internal resources and develop better coping skills to help them deal with whatever life challenges they may face.

I use CBT, EMDR, Hypnotherapy, Insight, Mindfulness, Body- centered and Psychodynamic therapies.
Often times in life we can experience personal challenges. These challenges can include losses and trauma. They can leave us feeling anxious or depressed. Counselling can help one make sense of what they have been through. Times of struggle and loss can force us to look inward to re evaluate what has meaning for us and perhaps find out what is our purpose. I have experience working with CAF, First Responders and Vets, as well as people who have experienced childhood trauma. Whatever the challenge we can work together to help you heal and come into wholeness.

I have a Masters' degree in Counselling Psychology from the University of Alberta and I have completed extensive training in mindfulness and body-centered therapies.
I work with children, teens, adults and couples facing life transitions, coping problems or mental health concerns. Depression and anxiety is very common, but I also work with loss, health concerns and family problems.Therapy is about change, but it is not about changing who we are. The person we are meant to be has been here all along. Sometimes we need help to reconnect. I work with my clients to explore patterns of behavior and thought that can keep us in small and narrow places, and to reconnect to our wiser, balanced and more joyful self.

I use an eclectic, client-centered approach that includes mindfulness-based, cognitive-behavioral, motivational interviewing and solution-focused strategies.
Why aren't we as happy as we want to be? Sometimes life is full of stress and challenges, and we might lose our connection with the joyful part of ourselves. My goal is to help clients reconnect with their joy and live meaningful and satisfying lives. A strong client-therapist bond is essential to making therapy effective, therefore I focus on building and maintaining a positive therapeutic relationship that is non-judgmental, respectful, and compassionate. When working with clients I strive to create an atmosphere that promotes safety, self-compassion, insight, and helps to identify steps to take in order to move forward.

I also use Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy and Mindfulness and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy which can be used alone or in conjunction with EMDR.
Hello, I have been in the field for over 18 years and enjoy working collaboratively with others to see their true potential. One of my specialties is working with people who have experienced trauma such as: childhood, single incident (ie. motor vehicle accident), or first responder. Besides trauma, I work with people managing life stressors such as work-related, separation or divorce, or perhaps dealing with the experiences of anxiety and depression. By working together through these typically challenging situations, it allows an opportunity to communicate, discuss and consider open possibilities for change.

I integrate a wide variety of models including mindfulness, self-awareness (The Enneagram), adult development, and in general an understanding of capacity building: the ability to respond more effectively to the complexities and changes we face in life and work.
I work with already-stable individuals who are looking for more in their lives: more peace, more freedom, more happiness, more fulfillment, more effectiveness, deeper relationships, more meaning. I work with them in any of their life contexts: home, work, family, relationships, friends, spirituality. My clients want to be even better human beings and live more fully aligned with their deepest values. They know there's a "next level" and are looking to build their capacity to get there. They want a trusted partner to assist them on this journey.

I primarily work through eye-movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT), solution-focused therapy (SFT), narrative therapy, and mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR).
I understand that every person is unique and has different needs. I take time to understand a client’s natural strengths. Working alongside them, clients are able to develop new skills and resources to support them in a way that is complementary and fitting to their lifestyle. With specialized training in trauma, I work with clients who have experienced sexual, physical, emotional and/or financial abuse. Additionally, I work with clients who would like support with anxiety, depression, OCD, PTSD, and relationships.

Mindfulness-Based (MBCT) Counsellors
How does mindfulness-based cognitive therapy work?
Mindfulness-based cognitive therapy originated in the work of John Kabat-Zinn of the University of Massachusetts Medical School. He developed mindfulness-based stress reduction, which is a technique found in yoga and meditation. MBCT is a combination of this type of stress reduction and cognitive behavioral therapy; it essentially quiets emotional distress through mindfulness, utilizing proper breathing and meditation. These techniques aim to bring the individual into the present moment when in a state of distress.
When do I know if I need treatment with mindfulness-based cognitive therapy?
If an individual’s mind is filled with emotional distress and general negativity, the person may feel trapped. A mindfulness-based cognitive therapist can help a person change their thinking patterns as well as their behaviour through calm acceptance and compassion. This therapy can provide an individual with the coping skills needed for a healthier and more constructive life.
What should I expect from mindfulness-based cognitive therapy?
This therapy often takes place in group sessions. A therapist will work with the group as well as with each individual. Meditation and breathing exercises are core practices that aim to invite inquiry and discovery into a person’s troubled mental state. The objective is to identify and lessen negative thoughts and behaviours and move toward optimal health and productivity. The individual will see life in a more realistic way. This therapy is supportive, accepting, and warm.
Is mindfulness-based cognitive therapy effective?
Mindfulness-based cognitive therapy is evidence-based and effective. One study found that people with major depressive disorder have benefitted from this type of therapy; the person accepts their distressed thoughts and also moves into healthier patterns of thinking. This therapy also aims to move an individual away from automatic negative responses. This type of therapy can bring a person lifelong change, with higher levels of satisfaction, less stress, as well as positive emotional and behavioural habits.
