Clients seeking treatment for symptoms related to anxiety, depression, trauma, and/or relationship issues will benefit from my integrated approach which draws from evidence based best practices including: Gestalt interventions; grief/loss models; Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT); EMDR; the Gottman Method; and the principles of emotional focused therapy.
During times of heightened stress symptoms related to anxiety, panic, and depression worsen and it can be very hard to maintain hope and positivity during this global crisis. Self-isolating, social distancing, and quarantine are helpful to keep everyone as safe as possible during COVID19, but this also puts added pressure on individuals residing alone, on relationships, and on families. I am passionate about mental and emotional health, and I am available to help you and your loved ones throughout this pandemic and beyond.

Loss, trauma, life changes, illness, or relational problems can cause difficulties that impact one's quality of life. Although time can sometimes help, meaningful resolution of problems and personal growth takes place within the context of a supportive relationship. Quality of life and contentment increase as the ability to process issues develops. I help my clients resolve emotional difficulties related to life circumstances and struggles with family, friends or co-workers. Building on current areas of strength and, when necessary, tackling new areas of competence we work together to rebuild or develop your sense of inner strength.

They say that for therapy to be effective, the relationship between client and therapist plays a massive role.
Challenges and suffering are a part of everyone’s journey. To be human is to feel the full range of emotions - the good, the bad and the ugly. But emotions can be confusing and cause a great of distress. I can help you understand what you're feeling and why you're feeling it, so you can use your emotions as a guide to living a full and meaningful life. When you sit across from me, you get an authentic, genuine person. I’ll laugh with you and cry with you. Because there is power in being able to share your emotional experience with someone, so you know you’re not alone.

Some are grappling with depression or anxiety, others with relationship difficulties, historic issues, or life transitions.
These are unprecedented times, rife with unprecedented challenges. The uncertainty of the situation, the lack of a map for understanding the present and envisioning the future, is a source of chronic stress for almost everyone one, and takes a particularly heavy toll on some. Its impacts are being felt at every level, experienced in ways that continue to evolve and that may be overwhelming. We are all new to this situation, but we are not new to grappling with unforeseen problems or having to pick our way though the unknown. Helping people to do that, even in ordinary times, is what my work is all about.

Beyond tools, tasks, and techniques, the experience of a healing and affirming therapeutic relationship is also key to becoming 'unstuck' and to moving in the direction of health.
Welcome! Having been one of the first in Calgary to be certified in sex addiction therapy, the bulk of my practice consists of individuals and couples in various stages of sex and other addiction recovery. Do you need help in the struggle to remain sober? Would you benefit from guidance in the formulation and maintenance of an effective recovery plan? Do you need a compassionate listener as you make sense of the trauma of discovery? My goal is to promote awareness of your emotional life; to help you establish and negotiate appropriate boundaries; and to enhance trust in all your relationships.

While need for human connection appears to be innate, the ability to form healthy, loving relationships is learned. Some evidence suggests that the ability to form a stable relationship starts to form in infancy, in a child's earliest experiences with a caregiver who reliably meets the infant's needs for food, care, warmth, protection, stimulation, and social contact. Such relationships are not destiny, but they are theorized to establish deeply ingrained patterns of relating to others. The end of a relationship, however, is often a source of great psychological anguish.
