Studies show that the relationship between therapist and client is one of the most important factors in impactful therapy. As a result, my main goal is to help you feel heard and understood so that we can work together on the issues that brought you to therapy. I believe in people's innate capacity for growth and use this as the basis for my practice. I work with individuals of all genders, sexualities, and relationship orientations.
I am passionate about developing ongoing, long term relationships with my clients. This way, we can dive into the layered complexities of what makes you tick, exploring what prevents you from being your kindest, most resourced, and best self.
I also spend time with my clients focusing on immediate, short-term tools to use when life throws big challenges our way, like preparing for a difficult holiday with family, choosing between two dream jobs, or deciding if and when to start a family.
I’ve got a few different modalities in my ‘toolkit’. I don’t approach clients from a ‘one-size-fits-all’ lens, and I’m always open to feedback and questions so that we can find an approach that works best for you.
I have been a Registered Psychologist licensed in Alberta since 2012. I hold a Master of Science degree in Counseling specializing in Marital and Family Therapy from California State University, Fresno (2009).
I am a Certified Hakomi Therapist as well as a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner™. I have additional training in issues of gender, sex and sexuality and am certified as a Sex Therapist through the Sexual Health Alliance. I've recently completed an EFT externship for working with LGBTQ2S+ folks in relationships (June 2023). I am trained in Ex/RP for working with Obsessive Compusive Disorder. I have an intersectional feminist understanding of how the circumstances of our lives impact our ability to respond effectively and well.
I’ve been in private practice since 2011 after a brief stint working for Alberta Health Services as an Addictions Counsellor fresh out of graduate school.
