I specialize in working with children, adolescents, and young adults. I am a certified play therapist and supervisor (CPT-S) through the Canadian Association of Play Therapy (CAPT). I take an integrative, client-centered approach to therapy, which also incorporates modalities such as sandtray, attachment theory, polyvagal theory, sensorimotor psychotherapy, narrative therapy, dialectical behaviour therapy, cognitive-behavioral therapy, mindfulness, Theraplay, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), family systems, and others.
I have experience with ADHD, anxiety, attachment issues, depression, elimination issues, emotional regulation, grief and loss, hair pulling, parental separation/divorce, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), parent-child conflict, parenting skills, self-esteem, self-harm, stress management, trauma, and other issues.
I am a member in good standing of the College of Alberta Psychologists, the Canadian Psychological Association, Canadian Association for Play Therapy, and the Association of Family and Conciliation Courts.
