I am a Clinical Psychologist with over 12 years of experience in the public health system. Clients often come to me for help with depression, anxiety, relationship problems, or life transitions. Over time, we may explore deeper underlying issues, such as emotion suppression, relationship patterns, low self-esteem, or “unfinished business” from the past. I also have a great deal of experience with trauma-focused therapy- many of my clients struggle with PTSD. My goal is to help my clients develop better self-awareness, understand their difficulties, recognize their strengths, and learn ways to live more effective, meaningful lives.
I work hard to foster therapeutic relationships that are based on trust, respect, honesty, and collaboration. With training in several types of therapy, I take an "integrative approach,” combining different theories and strategies to best address your issues and fit your personality. My style has been described as warm, caring, and non-judgmental.
I am honoured to be a Psychologist- I get the chance to witness incredible strength and resilience on an every day basis! It is so meaningful for me to join people in their journey towards growth and healing. Life can be tough sometimes, but you don’t need to face challenges alone. I would be happy to chat with you about whether we might be a good fit.
