Hello, and welcome.
I’m a Registered Psychologist offering both in-person services in Edmonton and virtual sessions across Alberta. I work with children (ages 2+), teens, and adults, and I am honoured to support clients at all stages of life.
I use a fully equipped Play Therapy space at my practice, Oak & Acorn Therapy (north/central Edmonton) and Sagacious Counselling (south Edmonton), allowing me to work with children and families in meaningful ways. Trauma is a core area of focus in my work. I draw from evidence-based approaches including Play Therapy, EMDR (and am a EMDR-Child Specialist), CBT, and an attachment-based lens.
I approach therapy as a collaborative process, where we work together to understand your experiences and move toward your goals. My style is person-centred and strengths-based, meaning I tailor each session to your unique needs while honouring your existing strengths, values, and resilience.
Beginning therapy can feel both daunting and deeply courageous. I strive to create a warm, non-judgmental, and genuinely supportive space where you feel brave to show up as you are. Your story, your perspective, and your lived experience matter, and I am here to walk alongside you in your journey.
