Medavie Blue Cross Therapists in Edmonton, AB

We will work well together if you want to understand how experiences have shaped who you are, how you respond/react to life events, and if you have a deep desire to move forward with life goals...even if this means parts of you might be hesitant or unsure how to begin. Exploring the past is used to understand the "who you are" and to help guide our work towards the "who you want to become." All parts of you, even the parts that you feel ashamed about or wish would disappear, are honoured, so you can move into a sense of wholeness and being able to respond to life events rather than react in ways that don't make sense to you

Imagine how your life would be without the old fears, anxieties, stress and sadness that you have been carrying for years. Imagine life with new skills that let you cope and thrive. With therapy this new life can be yours. Therapy can help you gain insight into why you function like you do. It can help you learn what needs to change and how to change it. Therapy can help you learn to understand and manage your own emotions, and to understand and deal with the emotions of others. Therapy has been shown to work in peer reviewed studies and in the lives of many people. Therapy works, and it can work for you.

When we feel stuck or overwhelmed, reaching out to talk to someone about what we are going through is hard. It takes courage to trust someone enough to share our pain. With this in mind, my aim in therapy is to create a safe space to meet you as you are. The counselling experience with me involves your active participation, because you bring the expertise of your own life. As humans we are hardwired for connection; you don’t have to do this alone!

My personal experience with mental health helps inform many areas of my practice and inspires my passion for therapy. It is my belief that in order for people to grow and progress, the problem must first be understood from many different views, including biologically, socially, and psychologically. Therefore, my approach to therapy is highly collaborative and client-centered, and is built on compassion, understanding, and perseverance. As someone who has struggled with my own mental health challenges, I feel as though it is important for all people to prioritize their mental health journey, in whichever way that looks for them.

I work collaboratively with my clients to help them create meaningful change in their lives and relationships. I am privileged to support my clients through life's struggles and help them realize their inner resources to cope with what comes their way.

I work with a variety of psychological issues including depression, anxiety, mood disorders, OCD, PTSD, and ADHD.

Hi! I am currently accepting new clients for virtual sessions. My aim is to provide a safe, nonjudgmental space in which to help you explore the challenges you may be facing.

“We’re all too vulnerable to face the hugeness of life alone. It doesn’t make sense to do that… we need each other” (Sue Johnson). I believe that meaningful connection with ourselves and others is central to our wellbeing. Unfortunately, painful past experiences and unhelpful patterns can sometimes get in the way. Relationship struggles can erode our self-worth and leave us feeling anxious, depressed, exploited, and alone. They can also create ripples that disrupt other important parts of our lives – our health, work, and kids. You're here because you’re wanting change. I'm here to provide a safe space for your journey to change.

I developed a keen interest in medically related problems and their psychological impact. I enjoy working with individuals, couples and families. I do not restrict myself to one specific type of client. As a Psychologist, want to help them cope with the diagnosis and work with them throughout their treatment.

I believe in a client-centered, compassionate approach, believing my clients are the experts in their own lives and that I am only there to help guide them in the solutions that best fit their lives and families; helping them to connect with their inner self and gain the insights that are hiding just below the surface.
