I work best with people who find themselves upset and confused regarding how their lives got to be the way they are. I help people to better understand themselves and their pasts so they can make more informed decisions about how they will change their futures. I help people to feel better about themselves, and find that my clients use therapy to resolve deep and long standing problems that have bothered them for years. People often come to me with problems with addictions, moods, anxiety, or difficulties in their relationships. Mes services psychologiques sont aussi disponible en français.
I am trained in psychodynamic psychotherapy that takes a life course developmental view of human growth. This means that our pasts impact our present, and that we are always growing. I also incorporate cognitive-behavioural, behavioural, and humanistic principles into my work.
My clients usually remark on how quickly they became comfortable with me in therapy, and are surprised at how much "just talking" is helpful to them. People find it easy to trust me and easy to talk about things with me that they have not talked with others about.
