I'm a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) with a decade of experience in mental health and addiction programs.I specialize in anxiety, stress management, substance use, depression, trauma, and self-esteem. Whether it is a work-related trauma, car accident, or distressing childhood experiences, we will work together to decrease the impact of your traumatic memories, making them feel less overwhelming. If you are struggling with the weight of life's challenges or navigating the complexities of substance use, I can support you to explore the root cause of your difficulties and work alongside you to develop helpful coping strategies
I use different techniques and customize therapy to your specific needs and goals. I incorporate a range of therapeutic interventions from cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), narrative therapy, and polyvagal theory.
My goal is to provide a warm and compassionate space for you to process your thoughts and emotions without judgment. I prioritize relationship building and enjoy bringing humour into sessions. I would love to connect with you and support you on your path to healing!
