I believe therapy works best when you feel genuinely heard, understood, and accepted for who you are. My approach is warm, collaborative, and compassionate, while also providing space to gently explore the patterns, thoughts, emotions, and experiences that may be getting in the way of the life you want. I don't believe you need to have everything figured out before coming to therapy. Sometimes, simply having someone help you make sense of what you're experiencing can be an important first step.

I am a Registered Psychologist in Alberta with more than 10 years of experience in supporting people through some of life’s most difficult and overwhelming moments. My work has included supporting individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, addictions, OCD, grief, relationship difficulties, borderline personality disorder, bipolar disorder, and other complex mental health concerns.

I draw from a variety of evidence-based approaches, including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), DBT-informed strategies, addiction treatment, and eclectic approaches. I tailor therapy to the individual rather than relying on a one-size-fits-all approach. Over the years, I have learned that there is no single path to feeling better, and that each person brings their own experiences, strengths, and hopes into therapy. Together, we can work toward developing greater self-
understanding, building practical coping skills, improving relationships, and creating changes that feel meaningful and sustainable.

Above all, I want therapy to feel like a space where you can be yourself without judgment. Asking for help can be difficult, and you don't have to navigate everything on your own. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, stuck, disconnected, or simply know that something needs to change, I would be honoured to work alongside you. My hopecis that therapy can help you better understand yourself, reconnect with what matters to you, and move toward a life that feels more manageable, meaningful, and fulfilling.
