As a Registered Psychologist, I am passionate about helping people experience meaningful, lasting change. I specialize in addressing many concerns, including: depression, anxiety, life transitions, relationship issues, stress and burnout, trauma/PTSD, work/school-related issues, and more. I have extensive experience counselling Alberta professionals including healthcare professionals such as physicians and nurses, educators, energy sector professionals, and more. I believe that meaningful change is best fostered when the therapy process is collaborative and client-centered. I practice from evidence-based approaches including solution-focused therapy, cognitive-behavioural therapy, and emotion-focused therapy.

I specialize in the assessment and treatment of adult ADHD and PTSD, and generalize in the treatment of most mental health disorders. I utilize an integrative and transdiagnostic approach to mental health treatment which incorporates a biopsychosocial view of the individual. I enjoy focusing on increasing good health behaviours by understanding the relationship between life experiences, socialization, stress, and current functioning. My goal is to work with the client in making tangible and meaningful life changes as well as gaining a good understanding and perspective into what drives their behaviours, emotions, thoughts, and physiological processes.

I have experience working with children, youth, and adults, in both individual and couple settings. I believe in tailoring my counselling sessions to meet the unique and individualized needs of each client, specifically with a holistic approach by taking into consideration sociocultural factors that may be impacting your well-being. My treatment approach typically includes Person-Centered Therapy, Feminist Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and Strengths-Based Therapy. My approach encourages you to engage in continuous self-reflection and self-exploration, specifically by having you reflect on your core values and seeing if it aligns with your daily actions and habits. I am dedicated to creating a supportive environment.

Over the years as a psychologist, I have learned that you can be good at working in many areas, but you can only be great at some, so I decided to gather a team of therapists whom I trust and that have unique skill sets and varying personality styles to compliment my own and provide other alternatives for you. My team supports all ages and concerns. Many of us enjoy working with men on ‘what it’s like being a man in this day and age’ stuff, as it’s a different landscape to navigate these days! Please check out my website to see all of us and how we can best assist you.

Men today often encounter many tragic messages of self-blame. Even other therapists can fall into the trap of using negative or shaming language such as the “toxic masculinity” narrative. I abhor and avoid such messages. In contrast, I work from a strengths-based approach that prioritizes dignity and unconditional positive regard. I provide support for many concerns such as anxiety, depression, self-esteem, grief, relationship breakdown and divorce, domestic abuse victimization, and more. I work primarily using CBT, ACT, and person-centred modalities.

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.
