My ideal client is someone who acknowledges that their life is in need of some changes. Someone who continues to make the same mistakes over due to not having any other coping mechanisms. Someone who is eager to explore their negative habits and life patterns- and someone who is willing to share/reflect on their struggles with me. My ideal client is someone who is looking for healthy coping strategies and is willing to put in the work! It is not easy- but it will be worth it, I promise you that. You are worth it!

Accepting new clients, veterans and first responders welcome! I am a Provisional Registered Psychologist in Alberta P7592, with over 25 years of counselling experience, supporting adolescents, adults and families struggling with complex behavioural and mental health concerns. It has been an honour supporting, and witnessing transformative changes in both individuals, and collective systems; within the context of public health care, corporate settings, and private practice. I believe that symptoms often result from the accumulation of unresolved trauma and complex adverse life experiences. Healing is possible!

I started my practice to create a space that is healing, safe, and accepting to help you become more resilient, empowered, and content. Life is often difficult, confusing, and disappointing, but you are much more than your bad days, bad months or bad years. I believe that healing comes from recognizing your true self, living authentically, and balancing acceptance and change. With consistency and commitment, it is possible to break out of patterns that no longer serve a purpose. I offer a judgment-free space where I aim to support you in living the life you want, with peace and conviction. Your goals for yourself are within reach.

Weekdays/evening /weekend availability: I offer 25 years experience in the psychology field with extensive background in a variety of modalities that range the continuum of science and soul. I have been honoured to journey thousands of hours with clients through the intricate and sacred stories of their lives. I strive to bring grounded knowledge and theory, compassionate witnessing, heart-led guidance, practical tools and strategies, and body/mind techniques to support the reflection, healing and change process. A little humour goes a long way too ;)

My clients range from those with relatively non-complicated daily issues to those suffering from significant trauma, depressed mood, or other concerns. I also have clients who would simply like to investigate their inner world and identify their strengths or areas for change. My philosophy is that although sometimes an impetus for change may come externally, it is always in an individual's control on how they may want to negotiate changing circumstances.
