I am a Registered Psychologist who is passionate about providing children and youth with early interventions to prepare them for the challenges they may face in their day-to-day lives. I believe that early intervention is important in order for children and teens to thrive in their adult lives. Common challenges that children and teens face may include depression, anxiety, family conflict, behavioural concerns, stress management, grief management, divorce adjustment, and more. Although I specialize in children and teens, I also offer adult sessions in certain situations.

I enjoy helping couples who are struggling to find closeness in their relationship; typical goals are usually to improve communication and overall connection. I equally enjoy supporting individuals young and old who struggle to manage anxiety, depression, obsessions compulsions, traumas (i.e., military, car accidents), grief and loss, addictions (I.e., sexual). Goals often become finding ways to process past hurts and learn how to manage their emotions in healthier ways. With trauma in particular, I find people need support to get past stuck points that make it hard to differentiate the here and now from the trauma itself.

You don't feel like yourself. There’s a sadness that wasn’t there before. You feel worried, stressed, or overwhelmed. You struggle to fall or stay asleep, and you wake up exhausted, struggle to make it through the day. You're withdrawing from friends and family, turning down activities you used to enjoy. You just aren’t YOU anymore. But there is hope... As a counselling psychologist since 2007, I have successfully treated adults, children, and teens experiencing anxiety, depression, suicidal thoughts, self-harm and single-event or complex trauma, including adverse childhood experiences and motor-vehicle accidents.

Hi, I'm Keely. I complete assessments for students who are between the ages of 5 and 22. Most people think comprehensive assessments produce lengthy reports filled with complex language and few practical recommendations. I aim to write family-friendly reports with everyday strategies to support students across multiple environments. The families I work with appreciate my communication throughout the assessment process and my strength-based approach.

I have a passion working with individuals, couples and families with children of all ages and stages. Every person has a need to feel heard, seen, and capable. Therapy can be a benefit when you feel previous coping methods may have become exhausted or no longer work the way they did. This is when a fresh lens can lead to a new perspective and inspired action. Mental health matters, and I invite you to make it a priority in your life and the lives of your loved ones.

As a psychologist I often hear "no one can help because no one understands!". Sometimes people feel overwhelmed and alone in the pain, fear and uncertainty. When chaos and crises are your daily reality, how do you manage? When you keep thinking about the horrible things that did or could happen, how do you stop? When you don't want to get up in the morning, how do you face the day? Honestly, I don't have all the answers but I have personally seen people find joy despite ongoing sorrow and I have seen tears and smiles coexist. I believe that with the right support, all people can explore how to find a sense of calm within the storm.
