"A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step" - Lao Tzu Are you ready to take the first step? Working from a client-centered approach, I strive to empower my clients by helping them build a tool box they can use to work through their current and subsequent issues . This process does not follow a specific template as each client is unique and the expert of their own lives. It is through collaborative exploration that the client identifies what they need and how to get there.

I help individuals who struggle with difficult emotions such as anxiety, depression, anger, guilt, jealousy and shame. I teach critical skills to deal with difficult or intrusive thoughts as well as life stressors, including relationship difficulties, work stress, life transitions, grief and loss, and chronic illnesses. You can learn to let go of past hurts and focus on the here and now. You can learn to change your emotional reaction and respond in a healthy way. Together, we address barriers to your well-being so that you can feel secure and experience a balanced, meaningful life.

Born and raised in Alberta, I’ve learned that nothing is ever as it seems. We can experience spring, summer, fall, and winter all in one day! Alberta has definitely taught me to be flexible and to look for the individual strengths in people. I’ve dedicated my life to learning about developmental disabilities. I use a SCERTS model mixed with CBT and play based interventions. I like to be flexible, using a client centered approach, because I’ve found that even though two people can go through the “same” situation the way they process it is unique to them. I work towards establishing emotional regulation tools that work for the family

Life can be very challenging and at times overwhelming. Sometimes, it may be difficult to see past and work through certain challenges. I believe that we all have the capacity and resources within ourselves to overcome these challenges and continue to grow through them. To me, the process of therapy is all about engaging with you in a collaborative process to work through any barriers you may be facing. Every person’s life is complex and unique. It is therefore paramount that therapy is based on trust and that you feel safe and empowered.

Amie has had the privilege of working in the field of social work for the last 10 years and truly understands the difficulties that come with navigating life. With overwhelming news access, polarizing politics, and the ever-rising cost of living, people are feeling lonelier and struggling to find their way in this ever-changing world. Amie believes that therapy is a delicate balance of learning to understand who we are- past, present, and future and holding space for the immense pressure that humans feel to have things “figured out”.

I particularly enjoy working with individuals or couples who have experienced a shift in identity. This can happen for many reasons and circumstances including health concerns, relationship or professional transitions, financial stress, and grief and loss. I am ready to support the process of understanding, managing, and overcoming the emotional and psychological difficulties associated with these situations. The goal is often to redefine, then find confidence and satisfaction with one's new, and multidimensional identity.

I specialize in working with women who have suffered childhood trauma and are currently struggling in toxic relationships. As a professional, I support those who are struggling with the ongoing issue of being trapped in abusive relationships. These experiences can leave individuals feeling worthless and questioning their own sanity. Adequate sleep, meaningful intimacy with one's partner, and quality family time are pivotal in mitigating the effects of childhood trauma. I am here to help you achieve these goals, and to remind you that being part of a community that values and cherishes you is a basic human need.
