Hi there and welcome! I am a Registered Psychologist offering psychology and consultation services in person in Edmonton, and virtually across Alberta. I am experienced in working with young children (2+), adolescents, teens, and adults. I utilize a fully equipped Play Therapy room at Oak & Acorn Therapy (north/central), and Sagacious Counselling (south Edmonton). I believe therapy is a collaborative process and I look forward to working with you, to meet your goals. Trauma is my speciality and I offer a trauma informed practice for youth and adults.
I use a person-centred, strengths-based approach to treatment. This means that I tailor treatment to your individual needs, while focusing on your strengths and values. I am trained in Play Therapy, EMDR, an EMDR-Child Specialist, and CBT, and work from an attachment based lens. I am also an approved supervisor for Yorkville University practicum students.
Therapy can be a scary (and courageous!) step towards your wellness. I work to understand your life through your perspective, as this is after all, your journey. You bring unique experiences, values, strengths, and knowledge to therapy that deserve to be respected and honoured. I strive to establish a non-judgmental, brave space for you.
