You may be looking for therapy because something has become difficult to manage. It may be anxiety, depression, loneliness, relationship conflict, pressure at work, grief, immigration-related stress, or feeling not quite yourself. Sometimes the problem is clear; sometimes it is harder to put into words. I focus on understanding what brings you here and what kind of help you need. My postdoctoral research at the University of Calgary on romantic relationships and conflict also informs my attention to close relationships and romantic bonds.
As therapy develops, we may pay attention to emotions, repeated patterns, ways you have learned to protect yourself, and how past experiences may be connected to present difficulties. The aim is not to rush into advice or simple explanations, but to develop a clearer understanding of what is happening and what may need to change.
Choosing a therapist is not only about credentials or areas of expertise. It also matters whether you get a sense that the therapist’s way of listening and working feels right for you. I offer a free 15-minute consultation so we can briefly discuss what brings you to therapy and whether it makes sense to schedule an initial session.

I do not assume in advance what the focus of therapy should be. In the early sessions, I try to understand what brings you here, what has been happening, and what we may need to work on. With couples, I pay attention to conflict, communication, emotional distance, and repeated patterns between partners.
