Before becoming a trauma therapist, I spent 10 years as a professor of criminology in Halifax, Nova Scotia. My focus was on behavioural criminology and abnormal psychology. I have over 12 years of experience working with personality disorders, mood disorders, PTSD, and trauma, with a specialized focus on how these psychological landscapes contribute to violent behavior in mass shooters. In addition, I spent many years teaching crime scene analysis and offender behavioral profiling. I now work to support frontline workers and first responders - helping them navigate the complex and often overwhelming nature of trauma.

Are you experiencing inner conflict(s) and/or relationship difficulties?
Drawing heavily on the Internal Family Systems (IFS) model, I encourage clients to become acquainted with their many parts (or aspects) of themselves; some, that may be unconsciously driving them towards ill health, unfulfilling relationships, and/or addictions; others, that have the capacity to heal and transform through an unburdening process.

You notice patterns: the same argument, or same worry, the same relationship dynamics.
I offer psychotherapy for individuals, families, and couples/pairs. I work from the perspective that "we are hurt and we are healed in relationship." Like the gears of a clock, each person is one of many moving parts, and how we navigate relationship is key to how we navigate life.

2) Sexuality/Intimacy issues - desire discrepancy, aging, infertility, betrayal trauma, disconnection with self/ partner.
One of the hardest things to say/admit is 'I/we need help'. It takes courage, openness, trust and self-awareness, which can be difficult to foster on our own. Whether you need tools for symptom management (anxiety, depression, nervous system dysregulation, people pleasing behaviours, trauma responses, addictions, relational distress) or you want to deep dive into past experiences for better understanding and meaning, we can work towards developing a treatment plan that helps you create the life you want going forward. Develop the "life hacks" you need to bounce back from challenges with grace and grit!
