I believe that we all possess resilience to overcome life's challenges. Therapy is one way in which we can raise our awareness of our untapped strengths. I have studied psychology and have worked in healthcare for over 25 years. First, as an Occupational Therapist and then as an Executive in healthcare organizations. I completed my Master's degree in Rehabilitation Medicine and investigated processes that assist individuals to overcome pain and return back to function. Later, in my academic career, I earned a PhD in the field of organizational behaviour and examined how people, teams, and work environments support one another.
I have taken many personal and career pivots. My desire to practice psychotherapy stems from my wish for people to be intentional in achieving their potential. My areas of focus include: life stress, confidence, depression, anxiety, grief, trauma, infertility, injury, chronic pain, relationship stress, work stress, burn out, identity and self-development.
I utilize numerous treatment approaches to help you achieve your goals, including: Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavoural Therapy (DBT); Solution Focused Therapy, Trauma Processing Therapy, Insight Oriented Therapy, Positive Psychology, Narrative Therapy, and Rogerian Person Centred Therapy.
