Let's Connect (587) 600-3018

I am a Registered Psychologist with several years of experience working with individuals and couples struggling with stress, depression, anger, anxiety, grief and loss, family and relationship issues, job tension, abuse, and problems with attachment. My approach is varied employing multiple approaches to therapy that are individually tailored to suit the unique needs and goals of each person or couple. I take a trauma informed approach and use a culturally sensitive perspective. I am comfortable and enjoy working with people from all walks of life and provide a safe, judgement free environment. BIPOC and LGBTQ clients are welcome.
My training includes eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR). I often use this approach to work with people who have encountered trauma and attachment injuries throughout their lives. I am also experienced in using the Gottman approach to help couples navigate difficulties and build up their relationships to be healthier and more fulfilling.
Trauma or hardship occur when we are pushed beyond our ability to cope. It can interfere with our relationships, school, work, and/or self-image and can keep us from joyful and fulfilling lives. I welcome the opportunity to work together with you to move beyond the issues you are currently facing and begin your ascent towards mental health and wellbeing.
