Are you needing a bit more light in your life? I believe all people possess that inner spark to create meaningful and positive change in their lives. My goal is to help you access those inner resources and provide the support, tools, and guidance to maximize your growth. As a doctoral-trained clinical psychologist, I bring a breadth of skills and perspectives to help you see your challenges differently and support the process of self-discovery. Of particular interest, I actively support young professionals and health providers to thrive in increasingly challenging work contexts so they can continue to be of service to others.
I take an integrative, client-centered approach, drawing from empirically supported treatments (e.g., cognitive-behavioural, interpersonal, acceptance and commitment, mindfulness) to assist clients in recovering from mental health challenges. I specialize in mood and anxiety disorders, interpersonal difficulties, assertiveness, grief/ loss, self-esteem, health issues, and stress management.
I welcome diversity in all its forms, and will work with you to tailor therapy to accommodate your specific style and needs. I value collaboration and welcome your feedback throughout the therapeutic process to ensure that we achieve a strong working relationship.
