Children experience the world differently from adults. While adults use words, children express themselves through play. Play therapy offers a safe space for children to explore emotions, develop coping skills, and build confidence.
Parenting can be both rewarding and overwhelming, especially when your child is struggling with anxiety, emotional regulation, or behavioural challenges. You don’t have to navigate it alone. I work with children (3 years old+), teens, families experiencing divorce or separation, and parents, creating a supportive space to build resilience, strengthen relationships, and improve emotional well-being.

I enjoy helping couples who are struggling to find closeness in their relationship; typical goals are usually to improve communication and overall connection. I equally enjoy supporting individuals young and old who struggle to manage anxiety, depression, obsessions compulsions, traumas (i.e., military, car accidents), grief and loss, addictions (I.e., sexual). Goals often become finding ways to process past hurts and learn how to manage their emotions in healthier ways. With trauma in particular, I find people need support to get past stuck points that make it hard to differentiate the here and now from the trauma itself.

I am an experienced and passionate therapist located in Airdrie. I believe we all have the capacity and inner wisdom to cope with life’s challenges, but sometimes we might need guidance from a trained professional to tap into those internal resources. I specialize in supporting those who struggle with anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, or have difficulty managing emotions, or adapting to life transitions. I have also worked extensively to help people cope with the effects of past experiences, trauma, and stress. I use various interventions in my practice but ultimately want to tailor my approach to what will work best for you.

There are many reasons people seek out counselling. Grief, anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction and relationships are among the most common reasons. Some problems in life are tolerable but others feel overwhelming and unmanageable.

My ideal client is someone who feels capable but stuck. They may be navigating anxiety, grief, relationship strain, or significant life transitions while quietly carrying the weight of long-standing pains or protections that no longer serve them. Often they are thoughtful, self-aware individuals who have tried to manage things on their own but recognize they need deeper, structured support. They want more than symptom relief—they want clarity, confidence, and lasting change. Together, we work to understand patterns, challenge unhelpful thinking, and build practical skills so they can move forward with steadiness and purpose.

My ideal client is someone who knows there’s more to life than just coping or getting by. They may feel stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected—carrying stress, trauma, burnout, or old wounds, sometimes from family, relationships, or faith. They long for freedom, wholeness, and a life that feels authentic and fully alive. They’re ready to look inward, heal what hurts, and grow into who they were created to be—mind, body, emotions, and spirit.

As we move through our life experiences, we develop patterns and ways of being and coping that may no longer serve us. Our past gives us clues to our present and with this understanding we can change our future. Do you feel like you don’t know who you are? Do patterns in your relationships and life feel impossible to break? Are you dimming your own light to fit into who you think you should be?

Throughout my years as a social worker and now as a therapist I have come to realize that everyone’s normal looks different and there is no one size fits all. Appreciating a person’s uniqueness, beliefs and aligning with their values is paramount to helping meet someone where they are at. As a therapist I feel that building a relationship with you is the most important aspect of helping you move forward in your journey. Perhaps you are struggling with a problem/issue that is getting in the way of living your best life?

If you're having trouble getting ahead of your thoughts, emotions, or behaviours know that relief is possible, and success can be made inevitable. Thriving is about HAPPINESS and PEACE, and not just about relieving DEPRESSION, ANXIETY or RELATIONSHIP STRUGGLES. True change is maintainable and sustainable. It is not that you can't handle what life presents, it is that you need to learn how to not only create relief, effectively and efficiently, but learn how to create, sustain, and maintain happiness and peace. The goal is not less depression, anxiety, or less struggle in a relationship. The goal is to THRIVE.

Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?
Most Counsellors and Psychotherapists listed in the directory are certified by one of the main professional associations, mainly the Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Association (CCPA), and will have a Certified Canadian Counsellor (CCC) designation with their name. Social Workers listed in the directory must be registered members of the college specific to their province. To be listed in the directory, Psychologists must be registered with the psychological college specific to their province or territory.
Providers whose professional membership or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Given the considerable variation in professional regulation and prerequisites across Canadian provinces, some providers may possess significant professional qualifications without necessarily holding professional memberships or being obliged to acquire them. As a result, they may be selectively included without the "Verified" seal.

What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counsellor?
Psychologists, counsellors, psychotherapists and social workers can all provide counselling or talking therapy and have credentials and supervised, practical experience that enable them to do so in Canada.
Psychologists have a master's and/or doctoral degree and have passed both written and oral exams. Psychologists are able to complete mental health assessments and provide diagnostic information to clients as well as provide counselling therapy or psychotherapy. Counsellors and psychotherapists are expected to have a master's or doctoral degree in counselling psychology, social work, or a related mental health discipline and certification by a professional association, such as the Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Association. Registered Social Workers possess a Bachelor's or Master's degree in Social Work and where possible must be licensed or certified by the provincial government and/or regulatory college.

What type of therapy is right for me?
The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.
How much does therapy cost?
The cost of therapy depends on a number of variables, including location and the therapist’s experience and training. On average, the cost of a therapy session in Canada could be between $100 and $200. If you have insurance, the expense of mental health care is typically lower, but it varies based on your insurance plan details and whether you choose an in-network or out-of-network mental healthcare provider.
What are more affordable or low cost therapy solutions?
Many therapists offer sliding scale payments, usually on a limited number of slots, which consists in an agreement between the therapist and a client to pay a reduced rate. Therapists who provide such arrangements often consider the client's income or ability to pay, but the extent of the discount is ultimately at the therapist's discretion. Furthermore, while group therapy may have different goals and benefits compared to individual therapy, it can be a more affordable solution to address certain types of issues.
If you are struggling to access therapy due to budget constraints, you could also consider public funded mental health services. Some types of outpatient mental health services are covered by Medicare, provided these are performed by a licensed mental health professional in the provinces or territory you reside in and who accepts the assignment.

Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?
Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
Is online therapy a good option?
Therapy conducted online can be just as effective as in-person therapy, as long as there is a strong alliance between the client and the therapist. To find a therapist who provides telehealth services to clients in your area, click “Online Therapy” on the directory homepage and search by your city or town or your postal code.
Are therapy sessions confidential?
Professionals licensed by regulatory colleges and those certified by associations such as the Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Association are obligated to uphold client confidentiality unless there is a legal reason that requires them to disclose information. Confidentiality is a crucial part of the therapeutic relationship and only under specific circumstances, such as when there is the potential or known harm to the client or others, or a court order, will a therapist be obligated to break the agreement. These exceptions to the confidentiality agreement are usually discussed during the initial consultation.
