I provide assessment and therapy services to adult clients presenting with a wide range of difficulties, including anxiety, depression, chronic pain and other chronic health conditions, psychosis, complex trauma, PTSD, grief, relationship difficulties, and other issues. I hope to provide a safe space for clients of all identities and presenting concerns. I worked in several clinical and academic settings, including hospital, military, and para-military (i.e., RCMP, first responders). I have specialized training in assessing and treating trauma-related disorders (e.g., PTSD), including operational stress injuries.

I offer an integrative approach to psychotherapy that is collaborative, client-centered and focuses on the role of painful and often avoided emotions. I have trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Intensive Short Term Dynamic Psychotherapy (ISTDP). I also speak French.

My style is collaborative, laid back, and encouraging, with a degree of firmness when appropriate and therapeutic. If we work together, I promise to give you my full attention and work together to understand the source of your problems and help empower you to reach your therapeutic goals, whatever those may be.

I work with clients who may be struggling with depression, anxiety, or trauma related to past or current events. During our initial sessions, we perform an assessment to better understand your current needs. Typical treatment plans involve connecting with avoided emotions, recognizing the unhelpful ways in which we cope with our feelings, and developing alternative strategies to allow for healing.
