I see the therapy room as a place where people discover that "home" is an internal state. Trust is difficult, and it can feel like an immeasurable risk to explore the most vulnerable of spaces: your innermost thoughts and feelings. I seek to understand my clients' experiences and see the world as you do. Not all clients are alike, and I aim to tailor my approach to the needs and worldviews of each client. I describe my approach to therapy as integrative with a collaborative stance and an emphasis (where appropriate) on interpersonal and existential issues.
I have worked extensively with clients with mood and anxiety disorders, interpersonal issues, issues related to personality style, and those experiencing difficulty with life transitions. I have a growing specialization in health psychology, with a focus on chronic illness, psychosocial oncology and adjustment and rehabilitation following neurological/physical injury.
I received my doctorate in Clinical Psychology from the University of Manitoba and have trained and practiced across Western Canada. I am a member of the Canadian Psychological Association, the Psychologists' Associations of BC and Alberta, and I am registered as a Clinical Psychologist with both the College of Psychologists of BC and of Alberta.
