Anxiety Therapists in Edmonton, AB

Most of the clients I work with have come to realize that there is something in their life that is inhibiting their growth and happiness, and they may need some support as they prepare to make changes that will allow to find their joy. It isn't easy deciding to start therapy, but being here is an important first step. My goal is to identify how my training and knowledge can best support you in using your inherent strengths to achieve your goals of living a happier, more authentic life. I can support you in overcoming symptoms related to anxiety , depression, trauma, grief, and dysregulation.

Life is not always easy and it can affect our psychological health and wellbeing.

My goal is to help my clients grow from their struggles, heal from their traumas and pain, and learn new coping strategies to move forward.

Now providing both in person and online sessions. ---- Welcome, I work collaboratively with clients on a broad range of topics - ranging from anxiety and depression, to addictions and grief counselling as well as relationship counselling, workplace and career anxiety , and general life improvement and overall wellness management.

I work with individuals struggle with anxiety and depression, as well as couples, to create meaningful change and joyful connection. I believe that all people have the capacity to heal, grow, and change in profound and exciting ways. You may feel stuck, lost, alone or unsure how to move forward in life or your relationship. What ever you are dealing with there is hope. With the rights support change is possible!

I am open to anyone who wants a supportive, collaborative relationship.

Therapy is an opportunity to find ways to live a more fulfilling and satisfying life. It helps in overcoming difficult symptoms or stresses, cope effectively with problems or bring positives into your life when things are going well. I work with people struggling in their family relationships, or those in high distress from loss, grief & trauma, or people trying to cope with eating disorders, anxiety , depression, or emotional pain. In my work with individuals I have learned that working from a broad base of theories and techniques is best integrated in the therapeutic work.

I'm a dedicated professional, committed to personal growth and helping others. I began my journey in 2012, gaining valuable experience in various settings, including community health organizations, hospices, and primary schools. My empathetic approach is impactful for individuals dealing with stress, depression, anxiety , parenting, relationships, anger, and grief. I draw from techniques like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy (SFT), Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), and Mindfulness, empowering individuals to heal and rewrite their life stories.

I recognize that therapy is not always exciting or enjoyable. In fact, it is often uncomfortable, exhausting and scary. You will not always like it. I also think that it is only through facing the impact of the difficult ‘life stuff’ that you can build a fulfilling and sustainable way of being. I trust that all humans hold intrinsic knowledge of what they need and unforeseen events often disconnect us from that knowledge. I view my role as restoring that connection in an honest and collaborative way. I am drawn to finding crucial links uncovering why we do what we do and creating intentional alternatives together with the client.
