I specialize helping those struggling with anxiety, mood disorders, and substance use concerns using trauma-informed treatment. My foundation views all people as being made up of mind, body, and spirit. We all share common pains in life, such as caregiver failures and events that have occurred beyond our control. These experiences change us and can form belief systems that perpetuate a limited perspective on who we can become. People are basically good and no person is "bad", but life traumas shape us into the false self (ego) which we then identify with; finding your true self allows for more authenticity and freedom.

I work with people who experience discomfort in a variety of experiences including anxiety, depression, substance use, trauma, self-esteem, identity and relationship struggles.
Let’s figure out what is holding you back and how to move forward in celebrating who you are. We all have parts of ourselves we wish were different, parts of ourselves we are ashamed of or perhaps sad or angry with. Sometimes we start to shape our understanding of ourselves through a narrative that is focused on these parts. My approach is one that uses curiosity to explore, understand and appreciate our unique story. Stories are ways in which we explain and understand our experiences. As your therapist, I will walk alongside you on your journey of exploring your story, rediscovering self and re-writing your story that you value.

Attention parents. Is your child in elementary, high school, or post-secondary education and struggling with anxiety or depression? Is your child feeling socially anxious or experiencing difficulty separating from their digital devices? Recovering from the isolation and social restrictions has been difficult for so many students leaving kids uninterested in previous activities or peer groups. We have seen a substantial increase in the use of marijuana and alcohol in our youth as a result of unrecognized or undiagnosed mental health challenges. Many parents report they are at a loss to help their child flourish again and recover.

How do substance and drug recovery or rehabilitation programs work?

In inpatient programs, individuals live in a facility with other clients in recovery; in outpatient programs, individuals reside at home. These facilities are staffed with healthcare professionals including physicians, nurses, psychologists, counsellors, and psychotherapists. Staff often also includes people who have recovered themselves, serving as mentors and guides. These programs may use abstinence, harm reduction, detoxification, psychotherapy, and other methods.

How do 12-step programs combined with psychotherapy work?

Members of 12-step programs help each other reach abstinence and work to maintain it. These programs promote complete change in the individual’s emotional, mental, physical, and even spiritual perspectives. Some programs require that new members attend 90 meetings in 90 days. Many people do attend these programs in conjunction with their work in psychotherapy; the combination of therapy along with 12-step can be extremely effective.

How does harm reduction combined with psychotherapy work?

According to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, harm reduction prevents death, injury, disease, overdose, and substance misuse. People who choose harm reduction for substance use reduce the amount of drugs they consume. It is not abstinence-based like a 12-step program, but combining harm reduction with psychotherapy proves to be effective for many people.

Are there specific medications for substance and drug use?

There are medications approved to treat substance use disorder—such as buprenorphine, methadone, naltrexone, and acamprosate. These medications do help people cope with substance use as well as avoid the problem of relapse. Naltrexone can help reduce cravings, methadone is an opioid medication used to treat severe pain, and acamprosate may help ease symptoms like poor sleep and anxious feelings.
