As a Registered Social Worker, with five years of direct practice experience and over 10 years the mental health field, my goal is to establish a trusting therapeutic relationship . I can support you if you are a teen, adult, couple or family that is struggling with excessive worry, anxiety, relationship issues, low mood, marital issues, school/social issues, feelings of "I'm not good enough", major mental illness, family issues, parenting, Trauma/PTSD, mens mental health and other forms of emotional or relaitonship distress. Know that your life's struggles can get better. Please reach out. A conversation is a great place to start!
I am experienced in offering individual, couples and family therapy to various age groups and people. My practice is based on integrative evidence-based models, including but not limited to Emotion Focused, Attachment, Cognitive-Behavioural (CBT), Solution-Focused, Psychodynamic, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) and Mindfulness-Based Therapy.
I understand how daunting it can be to reach out for help and tackle the cultural or faith-based stigmas surrounding therapy. I realize that seeking support can be a difficult step. I am here to help you feel comfortable with your goals in the context of a warm, trusting, professional and accessible service - regardless of complexity.
