My passion for mental health was fostered during my teaching career when I realized I wanted to help the students and staff on a deeper level. I strongly believe that when people are given the time and space to understand what is happening within their mind and body, remarkable change can occur. In my career, I have had the opportunity to assist teens, adults, first responders and vets who have suffered from adverse traumatic events to regain their identity, heal past hurts, and discover the possibilities of their future.
I utilize an integrated framework, which draws from attachment, psychodynamic, gestalt, trauma-processing, and cognitive behavioural therapies. I am also certified in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and offer animal assisted therapy and equine-assisted therapy to my clients.
I allow my clients’ space to safely explore their realities while deepening the conversation to help provide insight into underlying negative core beliefs. I encourage my clients to take an active role with me as we collaboratively navigate a new path where you feel free, confident and capable moving forward.
