I love to work with motivated, hard-working people who who feel like anxiety is taking up too much space in their lives and/or who are experiencing difficult life circumstances (like work or life stress, big transitions, or potentially traumatic events such as sexual assault). Not everyone that I work with is experiencing a diagnosable mental illness, but diagnostic categories relevant to my client population include Generalized Anxiety Disorder, Social Anxiety Disorder, Panic Disorder, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, Adjustment Disorder and Depression. Burnout is not a diagnosis in the DMS-V but will also be considered.
I offer knowledgeable, supportive, and change-oriented individual therapy. I will work with you to develop a strong "case conceptualization" or theory of the problem, and then use my education and experience to draw from a number of therapy styles to create therapy tailored specifically to your goals, preference, personality, and area of difficulty.
Being human is hard. I believe that most of us could use some help once in a while. Whether you are going through a rough patch or dealing with a significant mental health concerns, I would be honoured to help you achieve your goals and move towards the life you want.

During our initial sessions we will work to form an understanding of the problem and identify your goals. I will also provide education about treatment and relevant topics. We will then move to the active treatment phase. Sessions are focus on learning new skills or ways of thinking and supporting behavioural change. There is usually homework- something to do or think about between sessions.

The advantage of individual therapy is that it can be tailored specifically to your needs. As such, I usually do not strictly follow mannualized treatment protocols. Instead I will draw from multiple therapy styles to provide you with the therapy I believe will benefit you the most. I draw heavily from cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT) while integrating ACT, CPT, DBT, REBT and more.
