I’m a passionate trauma-focused therapist, MH accredited social worker, and member of the LGBTIQA+ community.

Trauma can disrupt our sense of self, relationships, and how we connect with the world around us. My goal is to provide a safe, compassionate, and supportive space where you can heal, find your inner strength and resilience, and reconnect with yourself on a deeper level.

New Hope Psychology & Counselling
Psychologist, MPsych, PsyBA - Clin. Psych
Serves Area
My approach is integrative and trauma-informed, with EMDR as a core modality to help process difficult experiences, strengthen emotional resilience, and foster meaningful change.
As C.S. Lewis once wrote: “Getting over a painful experience is much like crossing monkey bars. You have to let go at some point in order to move forward.” Holding on to the past can keep individuals from healing and moving forward. I support clients in finding the courage to let go and move through their healing journey. I offer a safe, respectful space to explore their experiences, reconnect with values, and move toward meaningful change. My approach is compassionate, integrative, and trauma-informed, with openness to incorporating Christian faith or personal beliefs when meaningful to the individual.

For trauma focused work, EMDR is the preferred approach.
Becoming a parent, or hoping to become one, can be both exciting and overwhelming, and sometimes an experience of loss and disappointment. Even when there are happy moments, it’s normal to also feel uncertain, stretched, or like some things are out of your control. Many parents/parents-to-be, feel pressure to look like they have it all together, while privately struggling with sleep disruption, anxiety, low mood, grief and loss, relationship changes, or a sense of losing themselves.

EMDR Therapists
Who is EMDR for?
EMDR was initially developed as a treatment for individuals with Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), for whom memories of a deeply distressing experience can be inadvertently triggered by random everyday events. The procedure has since been applied in the treatment of many other conditions. For example, it is used by some therapists to treat anxiety disorders including panic and phobias, depression, dissociative disorders, eating disorders, obsessive-compulsive disorders, and some personality disorders. It is suitable for adolescents and adults.

Why do people need EMDR?
People need EMDR as a way to manage distressing memories that in some way hamper the ability to function in the present. The procedure is believed to target the way memories are stored in the brain. Evidence indicates that past disturbing experiences cause ongoing distress because they were not adequately processed, and when such memories are triggered in the present, they are accompanied by all the emotions, thoughts, and physical sensations as the initial experience.

What problems does EMDR treat?
First and foremost, EMDR is intended as a treatment for PTSD, to defuse distressing memories that intrude on and impair everyday functioning. It is also often used to help those who are subject to panic attacks, phobias, and other forms of anxiety. In addition, EMDR has been used to treat individuals with depression, eating disorders, and personality disorders.

What happens in EMDR therapy?
First the therapist takes an individual’s history, and then the therapist and client decide which distressing experience(s) will be the target(s) of the exercise, delivered via a side-to-side visual stimulus requiring lateral eye movements. The client will be asked to activate thoughts, feelings, and any body sensations related to the troubling experience. The eye movements are said to reduce the emotional charge of the memory, so that the experience can then be safely discussed with the therapist and digested, minimising its ability to trigger anxiety.
