I work with young people who struggle with anxiety, self-worth, self-confidence, self-expression, and coping skills. My sessions are not the traditional 50-minute in-office talk therapy. Sessions are up to 1.5 hours, using relational therapeutic experiences (art, play, experiential, and talk too), based on the interests of the young person. I work with young people in experiencing the tools that will help them to resolve their concerns, giving them the opportunity to practice in their life-space. Appointments are available for evenings and weekends. I prefer to come to you for young children as they are more comfortable at home.

Sometimes we can feel overwhelmed or stuck, making the idea of being happy and free seem like an unattainable task. Maybe you are experiencing feelings, thoughts, or sensations that you do not understand, ultimately causing you distress, and are striving to work through your concerns. You may have experienced adverse circumstances, such as trauma, injury, or loss, and are looking to empower your inner survivor. Together, we can make growth, transformation, and hope a possibility! I look forward to working with through your path of discovery, offering you a hand up and empowering your ever-growing resiliency.

I am an Indigenous Registered Psychologist who works from an Indigenous perspective. I provide Indigenous counselling and create a safe place for clients to heal in a way that they want to heal.

I believe in building relationships with not only ourselves but also our difficulties. I offer holistic, relationship-focused, genuine, empathic, and grounding therapy.

You are searching for answers, perhaps stuck, and may feel a bit lost about how to find your way forward. You can be sensitive, intense, and passionate and you're interested in living from a place of aliveness, well-being, and spark. You may have a history of trauma, suffering, and loss and yet you are also a survivor. I look forward to working with you, attending to both the suffering and the resilience, the loss and the grace; to listening to and affirming the melody within your words. I work with several provisional and registered psychologists at Foothills Integrative. How can we help?

Occasionally life presents individuals with diverse challenges which can result in adverse effects to one's overall well-being. In understanding clients challenges I take into account the emotional, mental, physical, social, cultural, and spiritual aspects of their being. Encompassing a holistic model of counselling I endeavour to validate and dignify clients experiences in a respectful compassionate manner. I join with individuals in exploring and confronting their challenges using a wide knowledge of counselling theory, skills, and techniques. I supportively encouraged clients to examine present beliefs, behaviours and perspectives, illuminating what changes in their thoughts, feelings and actions would be helpful.

Do you struggle with feelings of unworthiness? Do you feel the pressures of societal expectations getting to you? Are you showing up the way you want to show up in all areas of your life? Perhaps you feel alone, you can’t seem to catch a break, or life just feels harder than it needs to be. Life is hard, but you don’t have to suffer. Together we can discover what's causing distress in your life, dig deeper while also working on skills and solutions, and create values-based goals to alleviate suffering. I am especially passionate about working with men’s mental health, as I have noticed a gap in our industry.

Personal distress is manageable. The majority of life stressors that contribute to distressing feelings fall into three categories that include relationship difficulties, internal factors (troubling or uncomfortable thoughts) and difficult life events (past and present). Depression and anxiety often occur when these factors go unresolved. I use cognitive-behavioural and solution focused strategies to help my clients develop manageable goals for resolving distress. Each client has the capacity for change and the evidenced based strategies that I use in my practice are an effective way to help overcome barriers to success.
