Therapists in Morinville, AB

I work from a client-centered and collaborative approach in which I believe that individuals are the experts of their own lives and have skills that can be utilized and explored. For close to sixteen years I have worked closely with individuals impacted by trauma and substance use concerns. Further, I have worked closely within law enforcement services. My focus includes those individuals impacted by addictions, trauma, depression, and anxiety. Not only do I process through current presenting concerns, I will also assess early life experiences and relationships.

Are you a parent of a neurodiverse child seeking support? Do you feel frustrated by cultural shock, adapting to a new reality, or navigating family or workplace turmoil? Are depression, anxiety, mood swings, or anger challenges on your plate? Is your child struggling socially or academically? Are you? Do you crave being heard, accepted, and supported? Are you ready to maximize your strengths while learning to accommodate the areas of need? Would you like to master the dance of interpersonal communication using your emotions as a compass in navigating your relationships? Will you explore your past and present to design your future?

At times in our lives we experience challenges that feel overwhelming. No matter what is tried, nothing changes and sometimes things seem to get more cloudy, confusing and distressing. My hope is that through learning to approach challenges in a new way, and make sense of where you find yourself - you might find new ways of coping and growing. With a focus on integrative therapy engaging both the brain and the relationships we experience I employ a compassionate approach, seeking new ways of thinking, feeling, and being.

I am passionate about working with adults, youth, children, and families. My goal is to support my clients in their unique journey of self-discovery and growth. By being collaborative with my clients, we can develop healthy coping skills for self-regulation and managing distress. I work with families to develop relationships, facilitate healthy communication and boundaries. I also assist parents/caregivers to adapt parenting styles that fit the unique needs of their child and allow them to understand the importance of communication that is responsive and developmentally appropriate.

Lunch hour, afternoon/ evening & Saturday availability. Easy online booking. Counseling can be a slice of time for us to bring attention to what you’re feeling and, given what you’ve already experienced, notice what you're now ready to experience from here.

I work collaboratively supporting feelings of security, purpose & fulfillment, alongside a titrated release of anxiety/ fear.

It is my belief that people have the strengths and abilities to navigate through life's challenges. The question is, "How do you use what you already have to meet life's challenges?" I work with individuals, groups, families, teams, and organizations collaboratively towards shared goals and outcomes that are rooted in evidence-based practices. Sessions are interactive, transparent, and optimistic. An eclectic approach rooted in Individual Psychology and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy offers the versatility for a culturally sensitive, non-judgmental, and an efficient working relationship.

I work with anxiety, addiction (substance use) and chronic pain. Sometimes the little things become too much and you find you're overreacting or panicking. Maybe you can't get a situation out of your head and you're overthinking or stressed about it. Maybe you tired of numbing the pain or avoiding your problems cause it isn't helping. Sometimes our motivation is to stop passing on unhealthy patterns to our kids. Maybe you want to control your emotions so they don't control you. If you want to work on the roots of addiction and the stress and anxiety that is always brewing below the surface of chronic pain, we could be a fit.

As a registered psychologist and having been in private practice for 14 years, I have had the privilege to meet and work with many wonderful couples, families and individuals. I strive to establish a solid rapport with clients in a comfortable environment. I have been told that clients appreciate my professional and direct approach that is not overly formal and allows for humour when appropriate. I use a biopsychosocial approach and incorporate several therapeutic modalities. I work to not only focus on managing symptoms, but getting down to the root cause of what is getting in the way of being able to achieve one’s goals.

I am committed to supporting you in reaching your goals and will work together with you. I hope that we will create a positive relationship with one another and I commit to listening to you, respecting you, and giving you the space you need to explore your thoughts and move towards discovering new skills and solutions. Change takes courage and first steps are the hardest but I believe that "happiness is an inside job" and I commit to taking this journey together.
