If you’ve had a less than positive experience with therapy in the past I’d love to hear from you. I draw from the most relevant elements of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Motivational Interviewing, and Cognitive Processing Therapy to craft a truly unique therapeutic approach that is structured, effective, and at the same time ultra-personalized to every client. One size fits all doesn’t live here. If it’s not working for you then it’s not working for me. I am also certified in Clinical Hypnotherapy by the Alberta Clinical Hypnosis Society (ACHS).
I work with adults and teens experiencing grief, trauma, anxiety, panic attacks, loss, self-harm, suicide ideation, life/work related-stress, relationship difficulties, emotional regulation, and borderline personality disorder (BDP).
Counselling doesn't have to look the same for everyone. Therapy isn't cookie-cutter, or at least it shouldn't be. It's a transformative process no matter where you find yourself on the healing journey. I will always do my best to meet you where you’re at and however you want to show up.
