We often heal best in relationship, and so my primary goal is to create a space where we can work together using what we have both learned along our journey. I began my trauma care journey 35 years ago after surving the San Francisco earthquake, working with emergency response teams and teaching disaster psychology. In 1998, I completed my graduate degree in counselling psychology with an emphasis in health and began advocating for teens with ADHD. In 2018 I licensed in Alberta as a provisional psychologist and have been in private practice ever since.

What is the job of a psychotherapist? I believe it to be rooted in empowerment; in helping you to find within yourself and your environment the strength, knowledge, insight, hope, direction, courage, and confidence that were always there waiting to be found and tapped into, but which for whatever reason(s) evaded notice or access for a sustained period. I believe therapy is about removing barriers: things that get in the way of our being able to access the truest, deepest, purest versions of ourselves – in essence, our ultimate potentials.

Do you struggle to manage your child's big emotions or challenging behaviours? Or has your child been diagnosed with ADHD, ODD, Anxiety, or some other emotional or behavioural difficulty? You may hope that it's just a phase, or that the behaviours will get better as your child matures, but the reality is that, unaddressed, emotional and behaviour challenges in young children typically continue through childhood, adolescence, and beyond, with much greater consequences and resistance to interventions. Now is the time to address your child's behavioural challenges head-on.

Sometimes life throws us experiences that make us question who we are, challenge our sense of connection with others, or traumatize us. Whether these experiences result in stress, depression, anxiety, grief, or substance use, these life situations can be difficult to manage on our own. Imagine a non-judgemental, compassionate, and empathetic space to find your pathway to improved wellness. I work with adults, teens, couples, and families, striving to understand how these experiences have impacted them. I appreciate the privilege of being able to work collaboratively with my clients, finding strengths and working towards goals.

If you’ve had a less than positive experience with therapy in the past I’d love to hear from you. Counselling doesn't have to look the same for everyone. If it’s not working for you then it’s not working for me. I am also certified in Clinical Hypnotherapy by the Alberta Clinical Hypnosis Society (ACHS).

It's not always easy to navigate life's challenges alone. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed by difficult emotions, wanting to make a change and don’t know where to start, or struggling to cope with unexpected events, reaching out for help can be a powerful act of self-care and courage. That's where I come in. I work through a holistic lens combined with scientific, evidence-based interventions, to help you reach your unique goals. I believe that each person possesses their own strengths and gifts, but sometimes we are blinded by past experiences or current challenges.

Do you struggle with emotions that seem to come out of nowhere, affecting your relationships, day-to-day-life and career? Tired of pretending to be okay when you’re not? Do you wonder if life should feel somehow better? Easier? Happier? Now more than ever, people are feeling overwhelmed and uncertain about how they are supposed to manage the impacts of anxiety, depression, and trauma on their lives, goals, and relationships. Ignoring those negative thoughts and feelings, and not working through them effectively, can lead to more severe long-term issues for your mind and body. We believe it shouldn’t be so hard to live a better life.

Accepting clients for daytime appointments, waitlist for evenings. I am a Registered Psychologist and have worked in the counselling field since 2009. I work with individual adults and specialize in treating trauma, depression and anxiety (including prenatal/postnatal experiences). All of my experience has led me to understand that no matter what issues people are facing, in order to truly heal, individuals need a respectful, understanding, and non-judgmental listener that is grounded and balanced in their own right. This is what I offer clients in addition to my extensive education and training.

Welcome—I’m glad you’re here. Therapy takes courage. I understand that sharing your personal life with a stranger can be daunting. But therapy isn’t about spilling everything; it’s about discovering what’s working in your life, what’s not, and how to improve it. As a Registered Psychologist with over a decade of experience, I believe in the strength and resilience of those I support. I work with teens, adults, and couples ready to explore their emotions, build self-awareness, and heal negative patterns that hinder their connections.

Most of us experience times of struggle and uncertainty in life and we do our best to navigate these difficult and complex situations. Often we are successful in overcoming these obstacles, but sometimes they leave us with feelings of unease and discomfort as we try to maintain a sense of stability. Feeling alone while we suffer through these stages of life can be overwhelming.
