Seeking help can be intimidating, and requires vulnerability and courage. Congratulations on taking the first steps towards healing and growth! I am a Registered Psychologist through the College of Psychologists of BC and I provide online and "walk and talk" individual counselling for adults. I specialize in trauma, anxiety, postpartum challenges, depression, relationship challenges, and low self-esteem. I consider a strong, collaborative relationship to be the most important catalyst of positive change and therapeutic success. I aim to help you cultivate your strengths, confront your fears, and move towards the life you want.
My approach uses evidence-based practices while tailoring therapy to meet your specific needs, values, and personality. My demeaner is non-judgmental and empathetic, allowing you to safely explore your concerns, identify barriers to reaching your goals, gain new insights, and build coping skills. I offer in-person gradual exposure services if appropriate.
I have a special interest, experience, and formal training in working with first responders (e.g., police officers, firefighters, paramedics, emergency dispatchers, correctional workers) with unresolved trauma. Please contact me for a free 15-minute phone consultation. I look forward to connecting with you!
