I am a psychologist registered with the Ordre des Psychologues du Québec specializing in research-supported treatment approaches, chiefly Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). I help clients tune their coping skills to overcome new, and sometimes old, challenges as well as to adjust to limitations. I have significant experience addressing: depression, social anxiety, panic, phobias, obsessions and compulsions (OCD), insomnia, trauma, anger management, stress management, life transitions, and family relationships. I make therapy active, including running sessions outside the office for exposure when needed. I prefer to keep therapy time limited to improve accountability and maximize results for efforts.

I see therapy as a collaborative process in which we work to uncover significant patterns and events that have shaped your life, helping us to better understand your current situation. As connections are made between past and present, you will begin to gain insight and perspective that will help you to experience your life, your relationships and your career in new ways. My aim is for you to feel supported, understood and encouraged to learn more about yourself in order to make meaningful changes in your life. Together, we will remove the barriers that are preventing you from moving forward.

As a licensed psychologist, I will be delighted to help you (as an individual, couple, or family) and accompany you in your learning process in issues such as: anxiety, stress, low self-esteem, sadness, difficulties in your couple or family relationships, hard memories or traumatic incidents . In particular, I have extensive experience in working with couples, families, and individuals with relationship, trauma and anxiety issues. I use a systemic approach with sensitivities around gender, sex, culture, immigration, and emotions in addressing your needs. Sessions can be weekly or bi-weekly, depending on your needs and assessment.

Would you like to stand in your power, be more in control your life? To solve a problem, Einstein said you must first change the mindset that created it. Most people only have one to a few main issues that feed the majority of their problems. As a behavior modification specialist, I deal directly with these causes, which then dissolves the painful emotions holding you back from a happier life. I apply a two-part therapeutic system: first - healing through a solution-oriented approach, followed by - coaching for personal development, so you acquire the understandings necessary to feel centered.

I view psychotherapy as a journey of understanding and changing patterns that lead to emotional suffering. My goal is to accompany you in this journey, helping you make sense of your internal experiences, rekindle with your strengths, and explore new ways of being. I help adults struggling with emotional dysregulation, difficulties forming and maintaining relationships, and problems building connections with people. I also help individuals navigate challenging life transitions (grief, loss, separation, health issues).

"I am a psychologist with active licensure in two Canadian provinces (SK and QC) and membership with the Canadian Psychological Association. As a psychologist, I have developed evidence-based skills in cognitive-behavioural and mindfulness-based interventions to help clients manage anxiety, panic attacks, depressive symptoms, and other daily life stressors.

Therapy can help people better understand themselves and find greater meaning in their lives. People enter therapy for a wide range of reasons, often involving difficulty solving a problem in their lives on their own. Some people, for example, are having difficulty in a romantic relationship and wonder how to improve the relationship, or end it. Other people experience conflict or anxiety in a wide range of interpersonal relationships and enter therapy as a means of improving their communication skills and the quality of their relationships. I help people in both monogamous and polyamorous relationships.

Your situation, needs, obstacles &goals are unique to you. Therefore the approaches used are tailored to best fit your specific needs. Before we explore the changes you want to make in your unique situation, we explore together to understand the nature of your problems or concerns in great depth and detail. I provide the safe, strictly confidential space for you to freely explore your issues at a pace that best suits you, while also encouraging your growth. I deal with issues related to anxiety, depression, stress, coping skills, relationships, changes after marriage, sexuality, existential questions, finding meaning after loss & other areas, with individuals and couples.

Are you disappointed with the turn your life has taken? Do you find yourself overwhelmed by feelings of worry, sadness, loneliness, or anger? Do you find it hard to enjoy what you have today, but feel stuck in the past, or keep worrying about the future? Do you struggle to communicate your feelings effectively to others? When we don't learn to successfully deal with our thoughts and emotions, when past wounds are left unattended, they intensify, and get expressed in unproductive, angry, or hurtful ways towards yourself and the people you love.

The poem, The Imaginary Career (by Rainer Maria Rilke), illustrates exquisitely our human condition. To quote: "At first a childhood, limitless and free" only to become "Defiance- The child bent becomes the bender". To live in that ".. vast, cold empty space, alone" is a very painful place to find oneself. I am here to join with that person in the "empty space" so that they can understand themselves and heal.

There are increasing psychological problems which do not meet traditional psychiatric disorders but concern developmental 'family-of-origin' dynamics, impacting adult functioning-regarding work, intimacy and creativity. Furthermore, although external factors are often very 'real' and painful- self justification, rationalization and denial often defeat heartfelt goals, dreams, desires and unique potential regarding school/work, intimacy, creativity and future possibilities.

Do you feel overwhelmed by painful thoughts and feelings? That if only you weren't so_______(sad, anxious, depressed, shy, angry) that your life would be better? Many people try to get rid of painful thoughts, feelings, and physical symptoms. In fact, they work really hard to feel better, and yet.... they don't feel better. It is not for lack of trying that people decide to seek professional help. Our minds are designed to ruminate about problems until these problems are "fixed". That's why your mind is working so hard right now.

The goal for my clients is to help them understand and apply solutions that the field of psychology can offer. My approach is rooted in cognitive behavior therapy, with the flexibility of utilizing other approaches tailored to clients' needs or the specificity of the problem. An important element of therapy is positive psychology, encompassing personal growth and human development. Combined, these therapeutic orientations help clients develop thoughts and actions to help manage difficult situations or challenges they are facing. Importantly I also help clients gain new skills to feel better about themselves and the decisions they make in life.

People come to me to resolve challenges that get in the way of living well. A trusting relationship is the essence of effective treatment.

My approach to treatment is interactive and collaborative and my style is warm and engaging. Respectfulness, clarity and directness tempered by humour characterize my work.

My passion is human cognition. My work is Neuropsychological Diagnosis and Interventions. I use neuropsychological testing to understand how my clients' use their memory, their attention, their intellect, etc. In other words, I try to understand how you process information in order to help you better understand yourself. We can also develop strategies to optimize or compensate. My work is based on research and I keep up to date with new interventions. The length of our work may vary, depending on our goals.
