Accepting new clients! There are so many difficult aspects of life that impact our ability to live as fully as we want to and make us feel stuck, whether that be anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, stress, family or relationship issues. I believe that healing is possible and I am passionate about offering a strengths-based approach, insight and skill building, compassion and a sense of humour to help you find it. My goal is to work with people wherever they are at and empower them achieve their goals of who and where they want to be. I have extensive experience working with youth and adults and will adapt to your needs and goals.
I have extensive clinical experience with youth and adults experiencing trauma, grief, parenting issues and mental illness. I am trained in a variety of modalities, including EMDR, CBT, ERP, DBT, and narrative therapy. My focus is always on supporting you through a flexible approach to find your own goals and to help you find strategies, skills and insight.
My clients have told me that they appreciate my knowledge and my genuine, open, compassionate and friendly approach. I truly value building a positive, collaborative and trusting relationship as a foundation of our work. If you are interested in talking more about whether or not I'm a good fit for you, feel free to contact me for a 15 minute phone consult.
