I work with individual men and women in Alberta experiencing the effects of trauma, relationship difficulties, stress, anxiety, depression, anger, and other challenges that they have decided they are ready to explore and address towards a more satisfying, meaningful, values-oriented, and peaceful life. I generally guide sessions with an approach called Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), and sessions are non-judgmental, safe, confidential (within legal/ethical limits), and professional. I have a physical office location in Calgary (Kensington), or we can meet by video or phone. In addition to the above I am a Registered Psychotherapist (CRPO), Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (California), Canadian Certified Counsellor (CCPA), Counselling Therapist (ACTA), and Certified Clinical Trauma Professional.

My approach typically includes managing current symptoms and addressing underlying causes. Interpersonal patterns are often at the heart of depression, so our work together may include a focus on improving relationships with family, friends, co-workers, and others.

At Family Counselling Centres, we have abandoned the one-size-fits-all approach to mental health and wellness. We recognize that each case is acutely different than the next, which is
why we believe in holistic wellness; an approach that considers the whole person. We also utilize the latest research in brain development and mental health methodology.

Our therapists provide a non-judgemental, safe, accepting and supportive presence. We understand that there continues to be stigma associated with mental health and accessing services. Our therapists are advocates for prioritizing mental health and we value a preventative approach.

In my practice, I support clients who are experiencing anxiety, depression, ​grief, stress, trauma, ADHD, and exhaustion. Life can be hard sometimes and my clients often tell me that they have so much going on in their lives that they’re struggling to manage their emotions. Many of my clients identify themselves as being helpers, healers, caregivers, entrepreneurs, advocates, and empaths and are having a hard time finding balance in their lives. If you’re tired of managing alone and want to find some peace or clarity in your life, or simply want to feel better emotionally, you’ve come to the right place.

Accepting NEW Clients (Individuals and Couples) – Are you feeling “stuck” in life and you’re looking for a way to better understand the steps forward? Have you heard of EMDR and you want to learn more about working through trauma and its impacts on your life? Is anxiety, stress, or low mood something you want to explore and learn strategies to cope differently? Are you a couple looking to work through infidelity, sexuality, or just simply want the skills to better communicate and understand each other?

I work with individuals and couples, where I also consider the impact of trauma and culture in the issues you’re looking to be supported with.

Sometimes, the challenges we face can overwhelm our abilities to cope. This can lead us away from our values, sense of self and can make the future look uncertain.

During times of transition and uncertainty, we may require some extra support to help us make sense of the things getting in our way. My role as a therapist is not to provide you with an answer, it is to help you make meaning of your experiences.

I believe each person has their own innate wisdom and my job is to create a safe relational space for them to access it.
