Areas of Practice
Individual Therapy
One-on-one psychotherapy offered for children, teens and adults of all ages. The goals of individual therapy are as unique as each person. Together we can work on overcoming challenges, processing old traumas, self-development, and almost any other topic imaginable. Quite often I meet with individuals who are experiencing challenges such as depression, generalized anxiety, or problems in relationships. Whatever the need, individual therapy is a valuable resource.
Faith Informed Therapy and consulting
I offer faith informed services for clients with religious backgrounds. For many people, religious beliefs are the cornerstone of life, and thus are a crucial part of the therapy process. I am knowledgeable about Judeo-Christian belief systems, and I am happy to bring a faith informed perspective to the work that I do with people who desire this.
Couples Therapy
Relationships are almost always difficult, and can also be incredibly rewarding and meaningful. Sometimes couples need the opportunity to work on shared problems within the relationship. Couples therapy is a tool for couples struggling to work through conflict, or having trouble communicating. It can also be an opportunity to go deeper with your partner, to set goals for the future, or to find new ways to accept and nurture one another.
Indigenous Services
I am a registered provider through Indigenous Services Canada for the NIHB and IRS-RHSP programs. I have learned a great deal from working with First Nations and Indigenous individuals, and from the community leaders and mentors who have taught me throughout my career. I offer therapy services to individuals and couples through the programs mentioned above.
Family counselling
Being a family is hard! Conflict often arises within families, and personality differences can make resolving problems seem impossible. In family counselling the goal is to discover a shared understanding, and to find healthy and positive ways to work towards compromise. I work with family groups to resolve conflicts, to come up with solutions, and to work towards the love and respect that makes family life valuable. Family therapy is a helpful tool when individuals are motivated and ready to work.
Workers compensation board
I am an approved provider for counselling services funded by WCB. These services are offered to workers who are experiencing the impacts of psychological injuries. If you have an open claim and would like to connect, please speak to your WCB caseworker for a referral.
