My practices evolved over time, but always followed through the line of trauma. I work with kids as young as four up until whatever age they want to continue therapy. I am fortunate enough to have a very formative experience in EMDR, IFS, IFIO, and Clinical Hypnosis to address the needs of my clients. As a psychologist, I believe that to have good mental health, the individual must be treated as the whole person. So, I integrate the mind and body into my practice to help my clients to overcome depression, anxiety, grief, stress, mood disorders, and PTSD. I also proudly offer NeurOptimal Neurofeedback for brain training.

Over the past ten years I have worked in various psychological environments including secure mental health facilities, hospitals, schools, and private practice settings. My personal experiences with debilitating anxiety, depression, and ADHD over the years ultimately led to my decision to become a clinical psychologist. Experiencing these conditions first hand and personally utilizing their various treatment methods, adds an additional layer of expertise and understanding that surpasses what can be learned from a textbook or classroom setting.

Many people struggle with confidence and are unable to fulfill their goals for relationships, work, and personal fulfillment. Understanding how your core values and beliefs impact aspects of your life such as work, relationships, and overall fulfillment can give you the power to overcome these struggles. Through learning to accept and love yourself fully you can move past shame that is likely impacting how you feel and behave. Through awareness of your power to change the meaning you give to events within your childhood, you can become free from limiting beliefs.

I offer individual virtual or in-person counselling for those aged 16+.

We are confronted with change every day of our lives. Some occur due to circumstance, while other changes occur because of maturation. We may appreciate some of the ways we have changed and not others. Fortunately, humans can reflect upon their lives and circumstances to make intentional change thereby improving their life satisfaction. Every person, family, or couple comes with their own story. In therapy, we come to understand the underlying meaning of the story for each person and work together to create the necessary goals for change.

There is help, I provide bilingual therapy for postpartum moms and moms who want to break the trauma cycle in ON and AB (English and French).
